Stan Lee almost gave up on comic books until his wife Joan told him to try one more time. Because he stayed, he created the Fantastic 4 and the Marvel world. Colonel Sanders was 65 years old and broke when he started selling his chicken recipe. He heard no over 100 times but he kept going until he built a giant business. These success stories show that you might be very close to your goal even when life feels hard. ✎ Motivation comes from those who stay true to their vision like JK Rowling. She was a single mother who got rejected by 12 book companies before Harry Potter became a global hit. Walt Disney was once fired because someone said he was not creative. He went bankrupt and lost his characters but he never stopped believing in his dreams. He even got rejected 300 times when he wanted to build Disneyland. These leaders prove that a setback is often just the start of a huge breakthrough. ✎ Jim Carrey grew up very poor and even lived in a van with his family. He worked as a janitor and failed at his first comedy show but he still wrote himself a check for 10 million dollars. He believed in himself until he became a famous movie star. Tony Robbins also started with nothing in a tough home before he helped millions of people with personal growth. If you feel like giving up, remember the miner who was only three feet from gold. Keep moving forward and stay one video closer to who you are meant to be. ★ BOOKS ★ • Momentum: https://amzn.to/3kJZIAv • Build to Serve: https://amzn.to/3XZiCSg • Your One Word: https://amzn.to/3R9qVII • The Top 10 Rules for Success: https://amzn.to/3JcNZVe • 254 Confidence: https://amzn.to/3jdh9c2 ★ RECOMMENDED VIDEOS FOR YOU ★ If you liked this video, you'll love these ones: • Friluftsliv: The Norwegian Life Hack that Just Might Change You Forever! - https://youtu.be/T_-OM47fU8Y • Phil Knight Borrowed $50 From His Dad (And Changed The World) | The Nike Story - https://youtu.be/EGdNDw-_pbA • 20 Laws of Money to GET RICH (Apply Them NOW) - https://youtu.be/3gvdHGqlP5w ⚑ SUBSCRIBE TO MY CHANNEL ⚑ If you want to do great things you need to have a great environment.
