This article is about an amazing boy in Africa who lived in an impoverished village and had to drop out of school. But that didn’t stop him. He simply went to the library and looked at the pictures in a textbook (because he couldn’t read English) and built a windmill that powered his family’s farm. He created the windmill from salvaged junk–anything he could find. The other people in his village called him a madman! But he kept on for three months until he accomplished what he set out to do. Why? Because he believed he could.

Here in American we have advantages and blessings that William never even dreamed of. What excuses are you making for not accomplishing your goals? Believe in the power of the windmill and go get it done.
