The Micheal Ain Story..
It was the kind of abysmal failure that could have easily ended Micheal Ain's dream to go to medical school. After all, it wasn't that his grades were poor or that his candidacy was otherwise flawed. The obstacle was simply his size or more accurately, people's perceptions that his size would prevent him from becoming a good doctor. And it wasn't just one or two admissions deans who felt this way. It was 30 out of 30, a clean sweep.
Micheal Ain early hardships in his life:-Undergoing a grueling operation at a young age, playing competitive sports against athletes twice his size. He had instilled in him a never-say-die approach to achieving his goals. More importantly, he learned early on not to use his size as an excuse, but rather to workout everyone until he leveled the playing field. And so, when he got 30 rejections in the mail, he responded by making himself a better candidate and he eventually succeeded. Overcoming those early setbacks on his path to becoming a surgeon has, in turn, made him a better doctor.
