The king's speech

Today I am going to talk about the things that really inspired me in the movie “ The king’s speech” An inspiring and moving film, The King's Speech tells the story of the reluctant king, George VI, in the years leading up to his coronation and first major speech of World War II, and the man who helps him overcome his fearful approach to speaking (and life).
                                                                                                                                  
 Lionel Logue, the struggling speech therapist with no credentials but "a great deal of nerve," takes the case of Albert (aka "Bertie") the Duke of York, who has managed to successfully remain in the shadows of his father, King George V, and his older brother and successor to the throne, Edward.
A couple of fateful events conspire to drive Bertie into the limelight.  The thing that really inspired me is that he overcome his fear and lack of courage. As Lionel tells his wife, Bertie is "afraid of his own shadow." Through physical exercise, breathing, conversation and a variety of (sometimes questionable) techniques, Lionel guides Bertie through the process of facing his fear, his frustration, his setbacks, and his ultimate responsibility. When Bertie and his wife, Elizabeth, first hear his recorded voice, overcoming Bertie's challenges begins to seem possible. And with his efforts and both of Berties and Elizabeth, their help, he finally overcome  himself in the pre-world war II speech.

In this story, it tells us that as long as you focus and pay hard work doing it, and ignore those haters and their doubts, you would be success in one day and your confidence often accompany by the success.
