The beauty of testimonies...it never fails to inspire.
I love hearing testimonies of how people who triumph over odds heavily stacked against them. And the beauty of it all is...these people are ordinary people to start with, nobody gave them any real chance of success, some not even given a second look. But with belief and hardwork...and of course by the grace of God, success is achieved out of the ordinary, against the backdrop of doubt.
That's why testimonies are such powerful tools, because it never fails to inspire.
Seeing is believing only when we see with an unadulterated mind.
Sometimes people choose not to believe still even when they see something happening right in front of their own eyes. Because in their mind, they have already decided what they want to believe.
When you believe in someone, you empower him to greater achievement. It is just a simple believe in someone, that provides the motivation and impetus to excel beyond what he usually can.
And that applies to self too. When you believe that you can, there is really nothing that will stop you from achieving beyond yourself. It’s such a powerful tool and none too difficult to wield and in the process empowering someone.
We need more people to believe in us, and we need to believe in others more, and we definitely need to have more self belief, because that is what will carry us through to a place of greater achievements.
Didi Benami, she's my fav American Idol 9 contestant. I first saw her during the auditions round where she sang "Hey Jude". Her voice quality and tone was really unique and she appeared so real and natural. I love her voice back then. And during the hollywood week when she sang Kara DioGuardi's "Terrified", that totally nailed it for me. I was falling heads and heels over her voice. She has such alluring and captivating voice and I love her personality. There is just something about her voice, that is just...DIFFERENT.
She made it to the top24 this week and she is definitely one to watch for Season 9 American Idol and in my opinon could go all the way, so hopefully nerves doesn't get into her as she progresses, she's definitely my top 3.
