Carlos Acosta - Haruki Washio


When he was 9 or 10 years old, he was hanging out with his friends and stealing mangos or else to pay for a cellphone or a theatre ticket. When he was 13, he left his home. He says ballet dancers have to practice 8 hours every single day. All of these experiences seem too harsh but he did it. He seems superhuman. However, his motivation for ballet is the applause and the light on the stage. He says he loves the applause.  At this point, he seems ordinary.
I think someone who achieves a great success is not so different from an ordinary person but a slight difference or just an accident makes a big gap.

  2. I like your opinion about people who succeeded in something. He is superhuman and simultaneously ordinary.

  3. I agree with you. I also think a bit effort day by day makes a big gap after years.
