Rav Gifter, His Beginnings, Determination, & Achievments - R. Yaakov Moskowitz - TorahAnytime.com

You know, I heard a story a while ago that was so powerful to me. Listen to this. There was a boy that was going for his high school interview. And at the time when he came, he only knew one blamara and his background was such that he didn't know as much as others. And after his fair, they had told him, they said, "Listen, you know, we have a more advanced shear and we have a more beginner's level." But it seems that due to your background that even the beginner's level shear may be too advanced for you. But after discussion and after talking over, they decided, okay, we're going to accept you into the beginner's level shear. And he thought to himself at that moment, you know, I'm really going to accomplish. I have capabilities within myself that I'm able to accomplish and I'm able to achieve big and I'm going to work hard and I'm going to put the effort in and ultimately I am going to achieve tremendous success and I am going to make it to the top and because of his determination that boy ended up succeeding in that year went on to the next year to the next year and ultimately that boy ended up becoming one of our gdole his name was Morai Gifter became the telerashiva and one of the great gdole of the last generation kali Israel has the ability to achieve tremendous tremendous levels we have the ability to reach levels that we could never thought that we could achieve. We have the ability to reach heights that one would say at the outset like, "Huh, Billy, this nation, they could achieve that."
