A working-class kid with bad eyesight and a fear of heights becomes an astronaut. Sounds like a Hollywood script, right? But this isn't fiction-it's the story of someone who refused to accept that dreams have prerequisites. That moment in 1992, watching astronauts float across a television screen during the Oscars, crystallized everything: the childhood wonder sparked by Neil Armstrong's moonwalk, the years of unfulfilling work, the nagging sense that life was meant for something more. The math was simple yet profound: one in a million isn't zero. It's 0.000001-a tiny number, but not nothing. The only true zero comes from giving up entirely. What followed was a decade-long odyssey through rejection, medical disqualification, and self-doubt. When NASA stamped "DISQUALIFIED" on that first application due to poor vision, most would have walked away. Instead, this became an engineering problem to solve. Seven months of eye exercises-staring at marbles, focusing on distant charts, wearing undercorrected glasses-transformed what seemed like an insurmountable biological limitation into a challenge that could be overcome through sheer persistence. Success isn't reserved for those who never fail; it belongs to those who refuse to let failure be final.
