    　　Fred was born in a rich family. His father had a big company and he had four brothers. He was the strongest of them five but he did not like to use his head. Of course he could not pass the examinations.

    　　“Have you hurt the captain, Fred?”asked a judge.

    　　“Yes, I have, sir.”answered the young man,“but it was a fortuitous（偶然的）accident.”

    　　I had my first job at a local diner called the Buttercup Bakery when I was 22．I worked there for seven years and learned so many lessons, especially from a fellow waitress Helen who had incredible self－respect and did what she loved－serving people．She made everyone smile and feel good, customers and co－workers alike．

    　　Being a waitress changed my life．One of my regular customers was Fred Hasbrook, an electronics salesman．Thanks to the newfound confidence I picked up from Helen, I dreamed of having my own restaurant．But when I called my parents to ask for a loan, they said, “We just don't have the money．”

    　　The next day, I shared my dream with him and said, “Fred, I know I can do more if somebody would just have faith in me．”

    　　He walked over to some of the other diner regulars and the next day handed me checks totaling＄50,000－along with a note that I have to this day．It reads, “The only collateral(担保)on this loan is my trust in your honesty as a person．Good people with a dream should have the opportunity to make that dream come true．”

    　　I took the checks to Merrill Lynch－the first time I had ever entered a brokerage(经纪业)house－where the money was invested for me．I continued working at the Buttercup, making plans for the restaurant I would open．My investments soured, though, and I lost the money．

    　　After great deliberation(考虑)I decided to apply for a job at Merrill Lynch．Even though I had no experience, I was hired and ended up becoming a pretty good broker．Eventually I paid back Fred and my customers the＄50,000, plus 14－percent annual interest．Five years later, I was able to open my own firm．

    　　I got a thank－you note from Fred, which will be imprinted on my head forever．He had been sick and wrote that my check had helped cover his mounting medical bills．His letter read, “That loan may have been one of the best investments that I will ever make．”

    Colonel Sanders went to more than 1,000 places attempting to sell his chicken recipe before he spotted an interested buyer.The fact that we can purchase Kentucky Fried Chicken today proves his steady determination.Thomas Edison attempted almost 10,000 times before he succeeded in creating the electric ligh.If he had given up,　　　　　　　　　　　 !

    The original business plan for what was to become Federal Express was given a failing grade on Fred Smith’s college exam.And,in the early days,their employees would cash their pay checks at branch stores rather than banks.This meant it would take longer for the money to clear,therefore giving Fed Ex more time to cover their payroll.

    Sylvester Stallone had been turned down a thousand times by agents and was down to his last $ 600 before he found a company that would produce Rocky.The rest is history!To truly succeed requires a total commitment to your goal.A large majority of people make the mistake of quitting just short of success.If you really have faith in what you are doing,give it all you’ve got and don’t give up.

    You will succeed.There is no such thing as failure.Every action produces an outcome,which may not always be the outcome you are looking for,but it is an outcome,however.If you monitor the results of your actions and keep correcting what is not working,you will eventually achieve the result you are looking for.

    Ray Kroc,the late founder of McDonalds,put it best when he said:“Nothing in this world can take the place of constant efforts.Talent will not;nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with great talent.Genius will not.Un-rewarded genius is almost a proverb.Education will not.The world is full of the educated abandoned.Constant efforts,determination and love are all-powerful.”
