There is a special something about successful people. Even when they fail there is an inner strength that keeps them moving forward. Popular books share insights and often delve deep to explain this phenomena with sports legends, business executives, scientists, inventors, educators and artists.
We think you will enjoy a charming but instructional moment in a young ballerina's life with Justin Bieber's "Born to Be Somebody." This young girl reminds us that underlying every accomplishment in the face of opposition is the all-important trait of Confidence... Pass It On.
MOM: Jessica! We need to leave right now!
JESSICA: I need to get something.
BROTHER: Dance recitals are so boring.
MUSIC:
There's a me no one knows, waiting to be set free.
MOM: So what's the empty suitcase for?
JESSICA: The grand prize trophy!
DAD: Duh!
SUPER/VO: Confidence. Pass It On.

I Love this little girl's confidence in herself. It is so adorable that she has so much confidence that she is winning the grand prize. I wish more little ones would have that much confidence in themselves. Who knows what they could accomplish.

What a beautiful commercial! I was so happy to see something so different nowadays. Every time this commercial comes on I stop whatever I am doing to watch and I shared it with my family. Good job!

she shows confidence by already putting in her head that shes going to win
bianelli , October 27, 2016
It's short, but good nonetheless. I do believe she's a great example of someone who shows confidence when in a opposition, so much so, I find it kinda charming.

Children are the future and if this attitude is spread among them there will be greater things in the future.

I look forward each morning to reach the Value of the day. I actually print it and post it in our school faculty lounge with hopes that everyone will read it to make us all better people. Your comments help me re-discover how grateful I am andhow much I appreciate all that I have. I e-mail them to friends and people I feel that need a lift in life....and maybe the situation is not so bad. Focus on the positive and let go of the negative! Thanks for you!!!
patpape from WVWSD Kingston Pa, January 28, 2014

madhoor from india, January 28, 2014
Love your billboards and e-mails. And I love this commercial ! It made me tear up and get goose bumps. (means the angels approved!)
Carolyn from Nebraska, January 27, 2014
This is very sweet and I do like it. But it made me wonder: Why does it seem that we lose that somewhere between childhood and adult? At least we have you to lead us back!
Paris from Bremerton, WA, January 27, 2014
Beautiful, of course. In order for this way of thinking to be adopted these videos should be shown in grammar school and in Parent meetings.
