This short article contains my theory of belief based on the two experiences of two of the greatest people in the history of the world.
When Alexander the Great became king of Macedonia, his mother told him the story of his true father. according to her, his true father is the god( Zeus-Ammo). She strongly convinced him of this philosophy of his true father and he is destined to do great things because he is the son of the god. This message affected him throughout his whole life and his battles. I believe that he is always determined by the idea of being the son of the god. He always believed in doing the impossible and convinced people around him as well. This belief also helped him as an influencer to his army and the people of his empire. I believe that this thought of being son of the god makes him believe in everything he achieved in his lifetime. So, we can see that believing in yourself and always thinking of yourself as a special person to the world can play a major role in achieving your goals and ambitions in life.
The second story is about the Great Nikola Tesla. Nikola Tesla is one of the most influential figures who lived in the 19th and 20th centuries. He is an engineer and inventor who created A/C electricity which has a major effect on the modern-day world. when he was young he said that he was seeing some kind of visions.
These visions and his inventions practically made him a wizard among magicians. But for me, a fundamental understanding of Tesla’s visions is that He had these visions when he was studying engineering as a student. So, It can be his deep mind which was actively searching for answers to his problems even when he was sleeping.
The day Nikola Tesla was born was a heavy rainy day. At the moment he was born, there was a huge lightning near his house. One of the women who was near his mother said that he would be a child of darkness. But his mother corrected the statement that he would be a child of light.
I believe that since he was a little kid, Tesla must have heard this story many times. Just like Alexander the Great, this extraordinary story would have made a big impact on his mind. So, later in life, he chose to do many experiments on electricity and its possible problems at that time such as the disadvantages of Direct Current.
Based on these two stories, I believe that making a special goal in your life and thinking about regularly can eventually help you achieve the goals in your life and make discoveries/ inventions.
