"Forge Your Future" by Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam is a motivational book offering advice to young people on overcoming challenges and achieving success.
Key points from "Forge Your Future" by Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam:
1. Dream Big: Dr. Kalam often spoke, about his childhood dream of becoming a pilot.
Coming from a humble background in Rameswaram, he faced numerous challenges, including financial constraints and limited resources.
Despite failing to secure the pilot position initially, he never gave up on his ambition.
His persistence and determination eventually led him to become one of India's leading scientists and the "Missile Man of India."
His life proves that dreams, coupled with hard work, lead to greatness.
Dreaming big never harm but you need dedication to back it up and don't give up on between it.

2. Resilience in Adversity
When Dr. Kalam was working on the SLV-3 project, India’s first satellite launch vehicle, the first attempt failed.
It was a massive setback for him and his team.
However, instead of giving up, he took responsibility and motivated his team to analyze the failure.
With their collective efforts, the second attempt was a success, placing the Rohini satellite into orbit. This story illustrates how resilience in the face of failure leads to eventual triumph.
If you are not resilient don't expect life to give you roses and happiness it doesn't work like that you need reality and not living in fantasy

3. Hard Work and Discipline
During the development of India’s missile programs, Dr. Kalam and his team often worked 18-hour days, sacrificing personal comfort for national progress.
He believed in leading by example, working tirelessly alongside his team. His discipline and focus not only inspired those around him but also helped India achieve self-reliance in defense technology through projects like Agni and Prithvi missiles.
People want to idolize a person but don't want to sacrifice like their idol and expect to achieve greatness you get nothing in life without opportunity cost keep that in mind everything have a cost
