Confidence Hack #74: Someone ahead of you paved your way, and you are doing the same for others.
In the mid-1800s, on the path known as the Oregon Trail, it took an average of six months for a family to venture from Texas to Oregon. Now, it takes 4 hours and 25 minutes to fly from Austin, Texas, to Portland, Oregon.
If you are not seeing the fruits of your labor today, know they are setting up someone else’s path. And if you are finding it easy to walk the path towards your goals, don’t forget someone set that path up for you. Nothing is of loss if you view it this way.
Today’s episode is about Henrietta Lacks. Henrietta Lacks, a 31-year-old mother of five, died of cervical cancer on 4 October 1951. Lacks’s cells – known as HeLa, using the first two letters of each of her names – became the first immortal human cell line in history.
All types of research and experiments suddenly became possible. Lacks’ cells were the first ever to survive and grow. Her cells were later described as one in three billion.
HeLa cells went on to help develop in vitro fertilization and several chemotherapy drugs among hundreds of medical advances.
Today's confidence boost comes from knowing that even if you don’t reap the benefits of what you are going through, someone else will. Keep going. And if you are reaping benefits, be grateful for those who paved the way before you.
