Every human needs some motivation and the more heartfelt it is , the more strong is the essence of the fruit it bears and if that motivation moves with you in every journey then that journey becomes the path of your success .Specially if its your mother and Dmitri Mendeleev was fortunate to have one as motivation.
Her mother helped him by using her short lasting resources and went with him wherever he go.Whatever the obstacle may be she, the ardent lady spent her last penny to educate her child for she felt that science is precondition for the eradication of superstition and myths.Mendeleev took pride in his mother and said that whatever he has gained is just because of mother . As we know that he was the first person to make the most appropriate Periodic Table and he got abundant popularity by that.I can bet that her mother was THE happiest of all. Her relentless encouragement was the strength for Mendeleev which led him to such a success.
Mendeleev once said,"She instructed with example, corrected with love and travelled with me to places spending her strength .She knew that with the aid of science without violence ,with love, firmness , all errors and untruth can be removed."
Resultant, in THE PERIODIC TABLE OF THE ELEMENTS, Mendeleev has his name in 101th element that is MENDELEVIUM .
