A new lesson in - 'never underestimate anyone'

According to this twitter user, during his freshman year at Hampton University, some random 'nobody' named John Stephens opened a show for them and was booed by all. Today, he's multiple Grammy award winning and Oscar winning artist that goes by the name - John Legend.

    Oh well, I guess in one way or the other, it shaped his career. When people chose not to see what you have, u got to keep pushing. Sometimes, rejection is all we need to get a breakthrough.

    That Is Called "GOD's GRACE". If he had stopped singing bcos of that embarrasing moment ( and i doubt that was the first) GRACE would never have opened that ONE door that really mattered.
    He His a Legend Indeed.

    To those who have given up, who have thrown in the towel bcos someone booed, or maybe said 'your dream is unrealistic and impossible'. i leave you with this....

    Don't Throw In The Towel Just Yet When God Has Not Replaced it With Something Better To Wipe Your Sweat.

    "If you can conceive it, you can achieve it".
    "With God All things Are Possible".
    "You Are More Than a Conqueror".

    If Your Dream Is Not Big Enough To Scare You, Then You Have Not Dreamt At All.
