The Rocky Inspiration

I happened to chance on this video while surfing. It has now become one of my all time favourites. It is about Sylvester "Rocky" Stallone. I did not know of Stallones single minded passion for winning in Hollywood until I heard this story.

Antony Robbins narrates this in a wonderful manner in all under 10 minutes and this is another inspiration for me.

The thing to watch for and learn is that how Rocky believed in himself and really pushed hard and tried tried till he succeeded. More importantly he did not forget his good old friend his dog which he had sold for 25 $ when he did not have food to eat and then later purchased the same dog by giving 15000$ and a role for that owner in Rocky.

This video makes for interesting listening and is very moving.

A lot to learn for all of us. We should learn the lessons of
a) conviction
b) belief in oneself
c) never allow defeats to tie you down
d) always try try till you succeed.

Happy listening.
