Jimmy Royle, 14, was the youngest to enroll in the world’s top university. Born with learning disabilities, he aspires to change the world with Math. Behind his extraordinary achievement lies a compelling tale.
When Jimmy was a baby, he was found beside the garbage. Due to his learning disabilities, his parents decided to abandon him. Jimmy was then adopted by a garbage collector and raised in a garbage center in Wisconsin. He became the life and light amongst the garbage collectors, making the mundane job more meaningful for his dad and fellow colleagues.
When Jimmy was 5 years old, it was time for him to attend school. Within the first year of school, his dad received complaints from teachers.
“Jimmy had trouble learning and focusing in class. He kept hitting people, disturbing the class, ultimately delaying the class’ progress as a whole. He was also a constant target for bullies for being the son of a garbage man. It would be best for him to go to special schools instead.” - Teacher
His dad didn’t believe that there was any problem, thinking it was just a child thing to be active and playful…until the doctors said otherwise. Jimmy was diagnosed with ADHD. Doctors said that he couldn’t sit still or focus for more than 7 minutes and he wouldn’t be able to properly learn in his lifetime.
Jimmy’s dad tried all ways to help Jimmy: Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), social skills training, along with medication and supplements…but nothing worked.
Despite that, Jimmy’s dad was determined to ensure Jimmy had access to education, so that Jimmy could have a better life than him.
One day, on his usual round of duty, the last stop was the house of a learning specialist. Jimmy’s dad bravely approached the learning specialist, Sarah.
“When he came to me, I saw the sadness and determination in his eyes. I was deeply touched by his story and effort to ensure education in Jimmy’s life. Even though not blood-related, he still sees Jimmy as his own and tries to provide Jimmy the best he could. That’s why I decided to tutor Jimmy for free.” – Sarah
Jimmy started going for lessons in Sarah’s house. While he was there, the house was filled with the scent of frankincense. Gradually, Jimmy became calmer and more attentive.
“Whenever I smell it, I felt more relaxed and focused. Since then, I manage to learn things very quickly. I was literally like a sponge, soaking up everything I see. It felt like a part of my brain has been opened up.” – Jimmy
The smell of frankincense came from Folinze™ Oil. Sarah puts some into a diffuser as aromatherapy whenever she needs to focus.
Folinze™ is the creation of renown researcher, Dr. Aseem Nirav. It is the concentrated Frankincense oil sourced from Africa. Extracted from the resin of the Boswellia sacra tree, this plant has been hailed for medicative practice since ancient times.
The sweet, woody scent of Folinze™ is calming and meditative. By inhaling the scent, or massaging it into your skin, it sends message to the limbic system in the brain, stimulating our brain cells to improve concentration and directly influences our emotions and nervous systems to elevate our mood and calm our minds.
After a number of tutoring sessions, Sarah noticed Jimmy’s strength in Mathematics. At age 11, Jimmy was able to solve tough math problems even Mathematics graduates can’t solve. Amazed by his talent, Sarah brought Jimmy to an open Mathematics competition. Surprisingly, Jimmy won the competition, topping graduates and professors from prestigious universities.
Now, the bullied kid who once had learning disabilities was accepted into FIVE prestigious universities, including Harvard, University of Pennsylvania, Columbia and more. Jimmy will be heading to Harvard Mathematics Department at the young age of 14!
As he reflects on his growth, Jimmy credits his dad for not giving up on him and thanks his tutor for seeing the potential in him.
“Given my rocky journey, I aspire to pursue a career in theoretical physics, in hopes to aid in the future of space travels. More importantly, I hope my story can prove that everybody can be somebody. No one is too young to change the world.”
Over 70,398 people are using Folinze™ to improve cognitive abilities and focus better. Energize your mind and spirit, achieve greater heights with Folinze™.
