Famous birthday today, August 1: Herman Melville




Hello friends!

Herman Melville, the author of the famous "Moby Dick" novel among other works, was born today, exactly 190 years ago. Today is the first day of a new month and as such gives great inspiration and motivation to work hard for the achievement of one's goals.

So before leaving you to enjoy your weekend, I would like to share one wise quote by our man of the day:

"He who has never failed somewhere, that man can not be great."

I am not sure exactly what the author meant by these words, but in my opinion, failure is simply something that happens when you go for success, and should be taken as a prerequisite to succeed. It tests us to see whether we are ready to succeed. If one can embrace failure and keep on, then he is ready to succeed.
Are you ready?
Have a great weekend!

Hello from me, it is really nice to be able to share my blog with you! I come from Bulgaria, and I live in Tokyo, Japan. Through this blog I hope to reach, get in touch, learn from and if possible, help people from all over the world. I like to communicate with people from different cultures and to make new friends, as I believe that we can enrich each other through our communication here. This blog is a Global Mastermind for good and success. I am looking forward to masterminding with like-minded individuals from all over the world! I started this blog in my desire to form a Mastermind of sorts - a group of like-minded individuals, who share my passion for self-development and personal growth. I post here whenever I find the time to share inspirational messages I stumble upon - messages I use to inspire both you and myself. Please write a comment if you feel like it!
