Today I've found a website that let's you enter your age, and see what other famous people accomplished when they were your age.I think that this website could be a pretty inspiring resource for everyone.For example I'm 20 years old, and some things that some famous people accomplished at my age are.
- Bill Gates dropped out of Harvard and cofounded Microsoft.
- Jane Austen wrote Pride and Prejudice, her second and most famous novel.
- John Stuart Mill pulled himself out of depression and found that the ordinary events of life could again give him some moderate amounts of pleasure. He decided that happiness is attained not by making it the direct goal of life, but by fixing one's mind on some other pursuit.
