Once Beethoven (1770-1827), one of the greatest Pianists, after his mesmerizing performance had to remain on the stage for a while because a huge numbers of friends and admirers wanted to congratulate and praise him for his magical performance on Piano. One enthusiastic lady among them shook hands with him and exclaimed, "Oh Sir, what a genius Piano magician you are! I wish, if God had given me also the gift of such a genius!" Beethoven replied, "It is not genius madam, nor is it a magic. All you have to do is: Practice on your Piano eight hours a day for forty years as I did and I'm sure you will be as good as I am."
Lesson: The best comes out of the hardest perseverance, practice and patience. Let's not loose heart, but continue to work hard and the result will surely be amazing.
