Your Big Ideas Are Worth Pursuing

Your Big Ideas Are Worth Pursuing

A boy sat in the classroom, confused. His teacher, after hours of tutoring, decided that enough was enough. It was time to tell him that he wasn't worth it. That he should just stick to working on the farm where all you can use are your muscles and eyes. As the teacher was insulting him, his eyes filled up with tears. He looked down on his piece of paper. He wrote one word on the paper: cancer. After years passed by, he came up with a medical formula that can get rid of the cancerous cells within the human body. Afraid that he would just be ridiculed, he regarded that idea as a theory rather than a miracle. What would have happened if he shared his idea? The medicine would have saved million of lives in both the present and future. It can turn into a breakthrough for all the fields in science. He could have won a Nobel Prize. He could have been held a hero. He could have saved the ones close to him when they had it. Sometimes, you need the speak up. Don't listen to what other people say. If you're wrong, then you'll be left feeling no regret. If you're right, then you're helping the whole world. Your big ideas are worth pursuing.
