his plan failed he had nothing to lose but if he succeeded he stood to gain a great deal therefore he took the risk he offered the apartments for rent for a year he thought if the tenants decided to leave at the end of the year he would renovate his office again this was also wise because it would increase the real estate value additionally new tenants prefer offices with modern designs While others were complaining or quitting their jobs this manager turned the problem into an opportunity as a result while the neighboring buildings remained empty every apartment
in this manager's building was filled with tenants we all face our own problems in life whether personal family related or work-related but only those who transform these challenges into opportunities TR truly succeed learn to see George Campbell was born unable to see due to bilateral congenital cataracts despite his parents doing everything possible for his treatment there was no cure available from the doctors George's parents never let him feel as though he was blind by the time he was six he never felt like he lacked anything one day while playing George's friend forgot he was was
