Looking back through history there are many who have changed the course of history.Can you name someone who started humble and rose to change history? I thought first of Jesus,but while his life on earth was humble,he is after all God!
A few others,Napolean,Da vinci,Nelson,and Hitler.If you can give a little info. so i will have a something to go on when i look it up.

Jesus was a real person! You may not choose to believe he was God, but even the moslems believe he lived.

1.Try your parents - the union of whom bore you.
2. Try , the inventor of Computer-think of the world without it.
3. Try your peers in the society whom you adore.
4. Try, Mother Teressa, Mandela ,Hitler and whatever names crops up there in your mind - anyways it is your mind and preference
Can go on ...
Lastly , but not the least , look up to yourself. Set Goals after you .I believe that no body else can do better than I can do knowing myself. It is called self -esteem . Try not losing it.
You can change the world . Or don't you think so ? Be honest.
