It's stories like this that really impresses me.
There is a super tiny shop in Tokyo's electronic quarters of Akihabara where a man has been running the business for 43 years!
He sells very basic electronic items such as switches, and resistors, but he has a fascinating journey through the 43 years....
Not only that, in recent years with the internet this tiny shop owner has went viral where he has become super popular on social media.
This man may have a tiny shop, selling tiny basic items, but he has had a very storied career with many up and downs...and it's these stories that really inspire you about his perseverance and dedication....
Watch the full documentary that I found here (it's about 15 mins long, but it's so interesting):
 What do you think?
What are some of the inspiring stories of the locals in your area?
Feel free to share!
