Benjamin Franklin I was born on a wintry day on Milk Street, in Boston, Massachusetts on January 17th, 1706. I went to Boston Latin School but didn’t finish, so I kept my education reading every book I could got on my hands. I lived with my fourteen siblings; actually I was the tenth boy of seventeen children, my mom, Abiah Folger and my father Josiah Franklin. Who was I in life? My name is Benjamin Franklin; I was one of the leading founders of United Stated of America. I also was a member of the committee that drafted the Declaration of Independence as well as I signed the Constitution of the United States. Apart of being a diplomat in Sweden and France and being a statesman, I built a printing and publishing business in Philadelphia, helped to establish the first university of Pennsylvania and the first city hospital of America. I also conducted scientist studies of important discoveries and electricity. Actually, I invented my own stove, bifocal glasses and the lighting rod. To end with my story I will share with you my simple formula for success. I believe that successful people work just a little harder than other people. Hope you take it as an advice and make that special effort to become a successful person.
