One day, there was a boy well-known for his bad behavior. He was a prude, had low self-esteem and nobody wanted to make him friend. He passed his day after day alone in boredom. He was also an orphan. His parents had left him when he was a child. He lived with his beloved grandmother. He never began to do everything because of his shyness, he had no friend to play with because of his shyness to meet people. In essence, he was extremely low in self esteem. He was a coward.His grandma was pity on him, but nothing she could do to help his grandson. One day, when she was going to the market, he saw a quite big unique doll. When she looked at it, she reminded of his grandson and suddenly he had good idea to help him. Then she bought the doll and asked the seller to bring it home because it’s quite heavy.One day, the grandma told her grandson to go to the house yard. When they both were at the house yard, she showed him the doll she’d bought at the market.And she said, “Look at the doll, my grandson. I bought it for you. Maybe I can help you by giving you this big fatty doll.” And her grandson asked, “What is this doll for? And moreover, this doll isn’t beautiful and quite big, I don’t like it.” And she immediately told her grandson, “My grandson, can you please smack it down using your whole power?” However, his grandson was confused and asked, “Why grandma asked me to do that?” And she said, “Just do it. I’ll tell you later.” He hit the doll, and fantastically it couldn’t fall down, just wiggling. Once again, He hit the doll more strongly with his great power and again, the doll didn’t fall down. He started to wonder. No matter how strong and how many times he hit the doll, it stood steadily and couldn’t fall.The big fatty doll couldn’t fall down because there was a heavy object put inside and at the bottom of the doll. So it would never fall down no matter how hard her grandson tried to smack it down. Her grandson gave up and still the doll stood steadily. Then she told her grandson, “My grandson, have you seen that the doll can’t fall down. It always stands steadily no matter how strong you’re trying break it down. You must be like this doll--strong, never give up and keep standing tall no matter how hard life is and how many barriers waiting for you. When you fall, you must stand up and if you fall down again, stand up one more time, fall down and stand up one more time. You must stand tall more than falling down. If you’re about to give up and feel bad about it, please come to this doll and smack it down, then see it keep standing sturdily.” The boy cried and embraced his grandma. He was thankful to her and promise to her and himself to be like the doll. At the next days, he was happier and braver than ever and had many friends and there was no more shyness, low self esteem, coward and giving-up in his life.

Do you know Thomas Edison? I think everybody knows him. He is well-known by people for his excellent invention to the bulb. And we also know that before finally inventing it, he must failed thousands times before successfully invent it.Do you know Colonel Sanders? I think everybody also knows him very well. Because of his persistency, people all over the world can now eat KFC (Kentucky Fried Chicken). Before his business was expanded amazingly like today’s KFC, we know that he was rejected for almost a thousand times when he sold his fried chicken recipe. No matter how many people said “No” to him, he kept going until someone said “Yes” and finally we can see KFC today nearly all over the world.How about Sylvester Stallone? If you watch the movie “ROCKY”, you may know him well. Before his successful career in Hollywood, he first sold his movie he wrote himself named “ROCKY”, but he wanted to play as the main actor for his movie. Many studios rejected him because of his unpopularity. But he insisted that he wanted it. That made him to be rejected many times, but he didn’t gave up until one finally agreed to film his own movie with him as the main actor. And the movie was very successful and there are six parts of this movie until now.Now the question is what’s the similarity they (Thomas Edison, Colonel Sanders, Stallone) have? Each of them has one attitude that makes them successful in their life and even changes the world. And it is never-give-up spirit. They keep going ahead until they have reached what they want and desire. How many times you’re able to hear “No” from people and never–give-up. The difference between they and other people is that they can hear the word “No” hundreds or even thousands times and they don’t stop doing what they’ve started until they’ve finally finished it. They assume that the rejection is temporary, they know that rejection is the way to the success they will achieve. The more they receive rejections, the more the success they’ll receive as the proverb says, “NO PAIN NO GAIN”.Many people don’t achieve their success they deserve because they give up too soon. When they fail, they give up and do not get up one more time to try one more time. They give up because of just several rejections or problems. It can’t be compared to the great people we’ve talked about. They have received failure thousands times much more than the unsuccessful people have. Give-up is the easiest word every people can ever say. Give-up is the quickest way every people can ever take. Don’t ever give up because when you decide to give up, you have been so close to your success. All you need is to try one more time. Successful persons never give up. They know that they must get up and keep going ahead once more than falling down. When they fail 10 times, they will try 11 times to accomplish they dreams and visions. They never let failure stopping them to get up and try one more time. So, NEVER GIVE UP!
