Who would have thought that one day, humans would defy the law of gravity and fly in the sky? The over achievement story of the Wright Brothers continues to inspire hope, determination and encouragement for current and future generations to become great dreamers. Historians tells us that on a cold day on December 17, 1903, Mr. Wilbur Wright flew their biplane for a distance of 852 feet for 12 seconds. With that feat, the birth of air travel was born. According to google, on any given day, there are over 45,000 Domestic and International flights in the United States . The advance in Air travel has resulted in safer transcontinental flights, and shortened the duration in flight, resulting in more time for enjoyment on vacations and the ability to safely attend conferences and business globally. When you get a chance visit the Wright Memorial Museum at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina in the United States to experience the work habit of the Wright Brothers. There is a saying that “your attitude will determine your altitude. “

Interestingly, Summer break from school affords both parents and children time to embark on more travel and other extracurricular activities . Our family visited the Wrights Brothers Museum in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. At the museum Exhibits, it became apparent that true success in life is a slow, progressive, determined effort that requires precious time, commitment and our indomitable will to achieve the impossible.

One of life’s greatest satisfaction is the observation and metamorphosis of our noble ideas into transformative realities. Examples include Thomas Edison’s invention of the light bulb, Henry Ford ‘s invention of the Model T vehicle, and the invention of the iphone. Such inventions started with a simple great idea that forever changed the world.

In conclusion, if possible, spend time every day thinking of one new idea and work constantly to improve, and transform your idea from its visionary stage into the productive stage.

Cheers!
