                                                                                           GALACTICA SPACECRAFT

Richard Branson photographed next to  one of his Galactica spacecrafts.In the 60s if you imagined that a spacecraft company that flies people to space would ever be formed,that would have been too big an imagination.The government would have suspected alien uncertainty.Scientists would have said that the world is not ready for it.Richard Branson is a man who has always looked beyond the limitations of most people and obstacles.Virgin Galactica is a spacecraft company owned by the Virgin Group since 2012.SpaceShipTwo began taking paying passengers to the edge of space beginning 2013.

                                                                                          THE BURL AL-ARAB HOTEL

The Burl  Al-Arab Hotel is the world'd tallest hotel.It was completed in October 1999 and opened on the 1st of December 1999. A 321m tower.This hotel was built on top of water.Talk of a great achievement.Located in Dubai.

                                                                                                  Microsoft's Bill Gates

Microsoft was incorporated on September 22,1993.This is a giant technology company that focuses on software.One writing that excites me today as much as it excited me when i first read it in the 90s is part of the mission statement of the 60s,70s record company giant Decca records,the record company that launched The Rolling Stones.The record company said that their mission was to take their product to each and every music market place of the world.Microsoft is a testimony of a company that takes it's product to each and evey software market of the world.What is great about Microsoft is their rate of market penetration,very fast,very effective.

                                                                                                         JESSE OWENS

Jesse Owens was born on September 12,1913 in Alabama and won four gold medals for America at the 1936 Berlin Olympic Games right in front of racist shouting and comments.Adolf Hitler himself was a witness of the great exploits of Jesse Owens.Germany has changed a lot since then.Jesse Owens achieved much victory against all odds with no one standing by his side in an environment of pure hostility,what a great man indeed.

                                                                                                          Soichiro Honda

Soichiro Honda was a Japanese engineer and industrialist.In 1937 he established Tokai Seiki which produced piston rings for Toyota.In 1948 he founded Honda a motor cycle and motor vehicle making company.Honda was established firstly in Japan and America.What makes the man Honda great is that Japan is but a small island but the Honda output coming out of this small island in massive vehicle exports is just amazing.In comparison some nations and people sit on vast land,resources and opportunities,not Honda.

                                                                                                        Andrew Lloyd Weber

Here is an example of one of the most unlikely great achievements,a man becoming a billionaire just by composing music.Born 22 March 1948,Andrew worth is $1.2 billion.He made this money through the composition of 13 musicals,a couple of film scores and a set of variations. At times i personally ask "What is the meaning of hard working?" When we answer this question accurately we will produce many millionaires and billionaires.Working hard depends on a person's talent,ability and resource.To Warren Buffet within a few minutes of working hard,he has made millions of dollars.To a farm labourer within a week of working every day from 9 to 5 or even from 6 to 6 taking small breaks in between,he has made $5 to $25.Hard work depends on ability,resource and talent.Equip your society or children with resource,develop their minds and get them to "work hard". Some will "work hard for 30 minutes a day and bring back amazing results and some will "work hard" from 9 to 5 and bring back lesser results or the same results. Study "working hard before forcing your own "life experiences on your workers,society and children". Raymond Mafukidze:Founder of BOOK OF GREAT ACHIEVEMENTS.

                                                                                                     ALEXANDER THE GREAT III
