Listen to the Voice of Your Heart
This story goes back to the young son of a traveling horse trainer who runs from farm to farm, from race to race to train horses.
The boy's secondary education was interrupted due to his father's job. When he was in the middle second grade, his teacher asked him to write an essay about what he wanted to be and do when he grew up. The boy wrote a 7-page essay telling that he wants to have a horse farm one day, sitting all night. He told his dream the finest detail. He even drew a sketch of his dream farm of 200 decares. He showed the buildings, stables and racetracks. He added the detailed plan of the 1000 square meter house to sit on 200 acres of land.
The 7-page homework he presented to his teacher the next day was just the voice of his heart ... two days later he took it back. There was a huge "0" and "See me after class" warning written in red pencil on the paper.
"Why did I get" 0 "?" the boy asked his teacher curiously.
This is an unrealistic dream for a boy your age…” said his teacher.
"You have no money. You come from a traveling family. You have no resources. Setting up a horse farm requires big money. You have to buy the land first. You have to buy breeding animals. It's impossible to achieve! he said and added:
"If you rewrite your homework after setting realistic goals, then I'll review your grade again."
He returned to the children's home and thought long and hard. He consulted with his father. "My son ..." said his father.
"You have to make up your own mind on this matter. This is a very important choice for your life !." After a week of thinking, the boy took his homework back to his teacher without any changes.
"Do not change the grade you gave," he said.
"I also dreamed of ..."
That middle 2 student lives today in his home of 1000 square meters on 200 acres. His essay paper he wrote years ago hangs framed above the fireplace. The most crucial aspect of the story is that the same teacher took 30 of his students to camp to this farm last summer. On leaving the farm to his former student:
He said, "Look ..." "I can tell you now. When I was your teacher, I was a dream stealer. In those years I stole many dreams from my students. Fortunately, you were too stubborn to give up your dream."
Don't let anyone steal your dreams. Whatever situation you are in, listen to your heart.
