There is no single word in the English dictionary that can appropriately define Leonardo da Vinci. His contributions in art, science, engineering, physics and philosophy are recognized to be one of the greatest in the history of mankind. His insatiable curiosity not just influenced his contemporaries but continues to influence the modern artists and engineers across the globe to thrive to be innovators. He was commended for his incredible observational skills which have led to the invention and conception of some of the most beautiful things human life has witnessed.

On the other hand, Marilyn Monroe, who is a well-known Hollywood actress, never found purpose in life and struggled with external validation to succeed. Her mental health issues burgeoned to the state where she met an untimely death and does not serve a good example in the community.

What made Leonardo da Vinci special? The answer is simple- his constant pursuit of knowledge and unyielding curiosity. Only if Marilyn Monroe had the perseverance to continue her quest in becoming a better actress, she could have flourished to become famous and be known for it. Similarly, when a purpose chooses to gain knowledge and become the best version of himself, success follows. Being indecisive about one’s own capability leads to a decline in their life.

Be positive! To learn is to prosper!
