How can i write about inspiring stories and not mention Michael Jordan?
Jordan suffered his first set-back in his sophomore year,when he was left out of the varsity basketball team.the reason is he was only 5'9" at that time.his taller classmate Leroy Smith has won the last spot of the team.
He made up his mind that he would never have to face again similar situation and started practising every day after that,making it a point to take out time for practice daily without fail.he soon shot up to 6'3" and made the team next year and never have to look back after that.
From being a part of two gold medal winning teams at the Olympic and winning the NBA's most valuable player award five times in his career. Jordan dominated the sports field for more than a decade in the 90's
