In a beautiful city called Kings-town there lived a young boy named Clark and he lived a life of sadness for he was from a poor home were everyone struggles for them self.

From a young age Clark has always wanted to be a respected man in the society, someone who brings hope to both the poor and the rich. But the problem was that he was an illiterate, even at that he never allowed his short coming way him down "I know I will be great" he always said.

One faithful morning Clark got up from his bed, stretched both his arms and then turned on his little radio box, were he had the voice of a well known motivational speaker by name Steve Hollins, who spoke on a massage titled "A key to success" where he said "in other for you to really become successful you have to leave your comfort zone to a place were you can truly explore and grow" Clark thought to himself if I continue to remain in this present location, it's sure I will always remain as I am and I may not really be as successful as I would love to be.

After a long a long meditation, strategic planing and prayers Clark said to himself this is my moment, this is my time, forward ever and backward never. With this few words of self encouragement he packed up his little cloths and his savings for that all he had at the time. The very next day he took his belongings and left for the bus station after he had sent a fair well messages to his friends and families.

While on the road trip to steem-city which was 6hrs and 35mins, Clark thought of how he would survive in a new city that he had only had about from his friends who had never been there and from commercials he had listened to in his radio box. Wow he said, "a journey of a thousand miles begins with a just a step" and
