Barack Obama was one of the most loved presidents America has ever seen. An absolute gentleman and a man of integrity, Obama has served as the leader of the most powerful country in the world for 8 years. As the next president-elect Donald Trump comes to power, the world is going to miss Obama terribly. From humble beginnings as a young child in Indonesia to becoming the president of the United States, the man is pure inspiration. 

This Humans Of New York post with Obama talking about failure and success is the most inspiring and heartening thing on the internet today. 

 ‘Am I succeeding? Am I in the right position? Am I being appreciated?’ – then you’re going to end up feeling frustrated and stuck. But if you can keep it about the work, you’ll always have a path. There’s always something to be done,” he says. The pressure of being the best and looking for instant success takes away the determination and the perseverance needed to build success over a period of times. After all, success is never overnight; it is a lifetime of hard work. 

As America and the rest of the world look at a new day with a new president heading the country, the world will always look back at Obama as one of the most inspiring leaders America ever saw.
