The Story of My Life, by Helen Keller, 1903
Helen Keller (1880-1968) was one of the most motivational figures in the 20th century. In many ways, she stood in the face of a great challenge, losing her sight and hearing at a very young age, and against all odds led a successful and long life. Helen Keller wrote this biography herself at the age of 22. She wrote at first about her family before her illness, and then continued with documenting her thoughts and feelings after the illness that caused her to become unable to hear and see. It is Helen Keller’s strength of character and determination demonstrated in this book that inspires me most. Anyone interested about her and how to overcome challenges in life should read this book.
