Stories about how people who find themselves in the most desperate situation, achieve success, most often look like fairy tales, since in real life difficulties quite often do not allow them to get out of the conditions in which fate puts a person. Of the poor, it rarely turns rich.
However, there are cases that return the belief that every person may have a chance
One of these incredible stories happened with a 17-year-old high school student Tupac Mosley, who lives in the city of Memphis, Tennessee, which is located in America. The life of a young man can hardly be called simple - in addition to the fact that the life of a future student in itself has many difficulties, the Mosley family has never been particularly wealthy. On the contrary, the young man can be called almost homeless.
Difficulties of the past
Mosley was an ordinary student who always showed interest in learning. However, when his father died suddenly, the financial situation of the family changed significantly for the worse. Over time, debts for utilities accumulated, in connection with which they had to leave their home.
However, the world is not without good people
Once on the street, the young man and his relatives searched for a long time at least some kind of housing, because spending the night in the open air even in a fairly warm climate of the United States of America is not particularly convenient and useful for people. They searched for housing for a long time, constantly moving, because of which Tupak could not constantly be a student of the same school, changing them when traveling. As a result, he was fortunate enough to find a charity that was able to provide the family with a small house in a campsite for people like them in difficult life situations. However, their own reliable home was still only a transparent dream for them.
And yet the guy did not give up
Despite the past searches of the house, the young man studied diligently, preparing for all subjects. Mosley did not know where he would end up and where he would find a permanent place of residence, but continued to study English, computer science, physics and other important subjects from the school curriculum, struggling to maintain a high score, even when he was as tired as possible. Overcoming himself, this young man made a bet on his knowledge, mind and hard work. They say that such things can be rewarded, but only if the person himself does not retreat and continues to work on himself, developing and improving.
Day of success
And so, when the school year was approaching its completion, Tupac Mosley found out the incredible - for his efforts he was awarded scholarships from 40 schools in which he somehow studied or provided his work. The young man absolutely did not expect that his diligence during the training would be so rewarded, because the total amount of all funds received over the year amounted to no less than 3 million US dollars.
This made the ordinary high school graduate so famous that one day television journalists came to their temporary home to interview a diligent student.
The hero of the report behaved very modestly, even a little embarrassed by the camera, as this was the first appearance on television in his life. However, he was able to answer questions from the press, including by talking about what he considers the secret of his victory in this competition with fate.
“I always tried to rationally allocate my time,” said the graduate, “therefore, even in difficult moments, I usually managed to get ready. I would also like to tell people not to give up.Of many situations, you can find a way out, it is important to make efforts and believe in yourself. "
A look into the future
Reading his speech to other high school graduates, Tupac Mosley tried to inspire them, because each of those young men and women who were at the graduation ceremony that day also aspired to something different, and it was important for them to know that much is possible, if you don’t give up. After all, as long as there is strength and self-confidence, a person is capable of so many things, including changing his life.
Special thanks were also given to the teaching staff of the school, which always supported it. The young man and the director, whose support was also important for him, did not forget. Joyful, in the graduation gown of the graduate - he was there the hero of the day, an example for others.
After completing his studies at the school, Mosley is going to enter the University of Tennessee as an electrical engineer, since this area of knowledge attracts him the most. Now he believes that everything will be fine. Moreover, he already has experience of hard work for the sake of his future, and the money from the scholarships should be enough to fulfill the dream of the family about his own home.
Stories like the initial stage of the life of young Tupac Mosley are necessary in the modern world. They help people not to give up and believe in the best. And the main thing is to know that, even if it’s not always possible to leave fate, everyone will be able to some extent change their own life, if they make efforts. Of course, now it is not known how this story will continue, but it is likely that a guy who knows how important personal efforts will not stop working. So, everything will be fine.
