In Order To Succeed, Your Desire For Success Should Be Greater Than Your Fear of Failure! B. Cosby
When 47-year-old small town spinster Susan Boyle stepped on to the stage of Britain’s Got Talent and announced she was unemployed, had never been married, lives alone with a ten year old cat in a council home and declared publicly that she was going to be famous, everybody laughed!
She wasn’t dressed like a star, people just perceived she was one of those people who come with a BIG ego to the stage, professing to be good at something and when it comes to delivering, you find out they’re simply time wasters who talks big and delivers nothing.
Miss Boyle has taught the world a great lesson last week! DO NOT JUDGE! Do not judge anyone based on their outward appearance. People were ready to laugh at her and complain why she is wasting ‘air time’ on stage. But then Susan opened her mouth and sang I Dreamed a Dream from Les Miserables, and the world fell in love with her instantly.
The audience rose within seconds to applaud her incredible voice as the celebrity judges starred in amazement. It was an amazing moment and people realized they were in the presence of a star!
One of the judges Piers Morgan said,
“Without a doubt that was the biggest surprise I have had in three years on the show. When you stood there with that cheeky grin and said, ‘I wanna be like Elaine Paige’, everyone was laughing at you. No one is laughing now. That was stunning, an incredible performance. Amazing. I’m reeling from shock.”
Another judge Amanda Holden followed,
“I am so thrilled because I know that everybody was against you. I honestly think that we were all being very cynical and I think that’s the biggest wake up call ever. And I just want to say that it was a complete privilege listening to that.”
Susan has gone through a lot in her life. She lives in her childhood home in West Lothian – Scotland, cared for her mother until her mom died in 2006 at the age of 91; her father had already passed away 10 years before.
Unfortunately for her, her struggling journey started from the day she was born. She was starved of oxygen at birth and has a learning disability because of the accident. It didn’t get any better for her when she began going to school. She was looked down by other pupils, laughed at and bullied. Boyle says she was abused and teased by classmates, and the scars of their comments remain to this day!
When she walked across the streets where she lives, she saw some of the guys she went to school with. They have moved on with their lives, they are married, have children and there wasn’t any progression or success with her life.
Some people might even decide to curse God for their miserable lives. But for Boyles, she knew she was talented. She was told by her mom that she was supposed to apply to one of these TV reality shows and was assured by her mom that she would win if she goes up there.
Ms Boyles gathered courage a few years later after her moms passing and we saw her on stage last weekend. She revealed to the world her amazing talent and her world instantly changed! Within 6 days, her video was seen by over 25 million viewers world wide and the figures are increasing!
I want to assure someone today that it’s never too late to become whatever you want to become. It don’t matter what people have said to you, It don’t matter anymore about the abuse you have gone through, or any disability you might have on your part, it doesn’t even matter how old you are. Go for it. There is room for you in this world to be the best at something.
Susan Boyle saw the world laughing at her before her performance, but she wasn’t moved. Don’t be moved by people’s faces or their comments. Believe in your dreams and the natural talents you possess or the skills you have acquired. You too will eventually succeed! Success is for everyone, as long as you are willing to succeed.
Remember: Success Doesn’t Come To You…You Go To It!
It’s time to Take Action and work on your goals. Ms Boyles practised her singing voice at home, at church and she applied to appear on Britain Has Got Talent TV Show. Had she not done saw, she wouldn’t be where she is now. I even heard she is in the process of securing a record deal with a giant recording company. As you can see, it takes Action to achieve your dreams. Action is the foundational key to all success
Whatever You Want To Become, You Can Become It! Go For It.
To Your Higher Potential
