Great Lessons We Can Learn from Helen Keller
Helen Keller is an amazing woman. She is blind, deaf and dumb, yet that doesn’t stop her from achieving her dreams. Helen isn’t a person who made excuses. She makes things happen. She is a constant reminder that anything is possible.
Despite her circumstances, Helen Keller became a world-famous author, activist and speaker. One of her many accomplishments includes being the first deaf-blind person to earn a Bachelor of Arts degree. We can learn a lot from her.
Go After Your Dreams
Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. Take the limits off and go after your dreams. Life is too short to blend in. Chase after your dream as if it were the last bus of the night.
You Must Have a Vision
Do you have a vision, a goal, a plan or a mission for your life? Isaiah wrote, “Without a vision, the people perish.” What’s your vision?
Nothing Is Impossible
The beauty of time is that you can accomplish just anything if you keep with it long enough. Consider the stamp: its usefulness consists in the ability to stick to something until it gets there. Learn from the little stamp: pursue your dream until you get there.
Focus on the Positive
Helen Keller said, “Keep your face to the sunshine, and you will never see the shadow.”
Hang out with Winners
Negative people are always saying how you can’t, why you can’t, and how you’re going to fail when you try. If you hang with these “chickens” for too long, you’ll forget that you have the ability to fly like an eagle. Spend your time with those who believe that the impossible is possible.
Your Destiny Is in Your Hands
“What I am looking for isn’t out there, it is in me,” said Helen Keller.
Next time you think something can’t be done, remember Helen Keller.
