Dabbling in Drabble

Do you dabble in drabble? (A drabble is a story told in exactly 100 words). Here's my attempt:

The letters jumbled. His mind flitted from one thought to the next. He was put in special education classes because of his dyslexia and ADHD. He didn't have a plethora of friends. His self-esteem was not at record highs.

But Paul didn't let any of that stop him. He came up with an idea. It began at a California university and before long Paul's idea flourished and blossomed into one of the world's leading businesses. His business ideals are copied by others—efficient use of space, recognizable uniform, friendly and fast service. You've probably copied there too. A company called Kinkos.
