His aspiration was to create a series of bird books that featured his lifelike parrot sketches, so that the globe could know birds as he does. People advised him he wasn't good enough. They cheated him, dismissed him, and does everything in their power to discourage him. In spite of the obstructions he pushed ahead, sometimes employed in temperatures so frigid that his hands could barely carry a pencil to sketch. He slept outdoors on the ground when he couldn't afford to cover lodging, and he performed gruesome and disgusting jobs to make money.

His report is for everybody with a aspiration. The next time you're feeling doom and gloom, questioning if you should give up your dreams, allow incredible report of Audubon uplift you. He overcame seemingly insurmountable odds, pressed ahead when all hope seemed lost, and not only achieved comfortable success, but still left a clinical legacy that spans the entire world but still lives on long after his death.
