Believe In Yourself

     Following is the story from the book life changers. -

     The glass elevator in our tower of hope was inspired by the EI Cortez Hotel in San Diego. The owners of the elegant hotel decided they needed additional elevators, so they hired a group of architects and engineers to figure out the best location, both in terms of appearance and cost. If they put the elevators inside the hotel, they would have to cut a hole in all the floors. What a mess! Plaster dust would be everywhere.

     As the planners stood in the lobby deliberating over the placement of these elevators, a janitor overhead the conversation. All he could think of was the mess the hotel was going to be in while all this reconstruction was going on inside.

     And the more he thought about it, the braver he got, until finally he went up to the group of men and said, " why don't you put the elevators outside the building?"

     Nobody had thought of that ! The professionals listened and the idea clicked in their imagination. ' why not?' they said " It's never been done before, but let's try and see how we could do it."  So the elevators were built outside the EI Cortez Hotel and since then, many well known buildings have done the same!

Common people are brilliant if they will only believe in their own ideas! I don't care who you are. I don't care how poor you are. I don't care how illiterate you are. I don't care how educated you are. I don't care what your race is. I don't care where you are on the economic ladder. You have the same basic brain as any other human being!

Believe in yourself.
