They say “Hard work always pays off”, if you are determined towards your goal, your goal will come running to you to kiss your feet.

Only those emerge winner, who know how to cope with such challenges in their life. In many cases, people attain inherited skill to handle it, while in other examples they develop themselves. In this article, we will go through an uncommon story which will prove to be the driving force for many of us.

 

 

Manoj Kumar, like million others, was born in a small village and forced to struggle for a two time meal in his life. When he was in 7th grade, he started earning a living for his family by selling SIM cards, recharge vouchers on roadside. He attended his class in the morning, and went out to obtain his living as soon as he got home. His interest in study never diminished. Over time he, in fact, raised his longing in school curriculum.
