DO YOU HAVE A DISABILITY?

Just take a look at this article. Some stories inspires me so much that I feel like my heart is jumping out. How self-motivated some people can be in life....
 
If you are like me, you will agree with me that a lot of us do not have an excuse for not giving back in our lifetime, giving back as a way of saying thank you Lord is what you are doing when you annex your gift and do something that will bless others. We have all been endowed with something that can be a blessing to our generation. Imagine the jewelleries made by Laura Green, how much it will be a blessing to someone and also the fact that as a result of using her gift, she too has become an employer, putting food on someone's table.
 
The list is endless when we think of the benefits of annexing our potential.
 
Get inspired like me and begin to think of what small thing you can give to this generation from the abundance of potential you have been given by your Creator.
 
I will continue to bring you more inspiring articles and do hope that you will get motivated enough to launch out and if you are already doing something, you could want to do more....
 
Thanks to 'Prince Trust' for helping Laura's potential become of use. You can do even better....
 
Enjoy reading........

This is Laura Green, and she has refused to let Down’s Syndrome stop her from running her own successful jewellery business.
The 28-year-old from Runcorn, Cheshire, was inspired to set up jewellery firm Serendipity in 2010, after she became frustrated with the lack of options that career advisers were offering to her.
She explained that she ‘didn’t want to work in Asda’, and now sells her products at exhibitions and craft fairs across the UK.
‘There was no career planning at school for me. I was just killing time until I was moved onto the next step in the system’, Laura recalled.
‘After three years I said “no more” and I left.

Laura established the business with friend Rachel Melarangi, who also has Down’s Syndrome, after the pair received backing from the Prince’s Trust.
Describing the day-to-day workings of the business, Laura said: ‘I now employ my employment personal assistant to help with my business.
‘My family and friends will still be in my life as part of my circle of support.

‘I can go out with them for a meal and say ‘so what did you do at work today? I did… You don’t know how good that sounds to me.
‘I am a businesswoman, a woman who runs her own business, how many other 24 year olds can say that’.
