"I believe that having dreams and believing in them is relevant for both individuals and businesses. I request you to listen carefully to what Dave Chapelle is saying about being too drunk because he thought he was right. He talks about being a dreamer and understanding other dreamers, and also about setting boundaries for oneself, whether one is a man/woman or a business. Look for the relevance in his words.

"Failure brings you more success than anything else in this world" Here, are some examples of how failure led them to success. 1.Amelia Earhart had to perform numerous odd jobs in order to support herself because she struggled to make a living as a pilot. 2.During his life, Vincent van Gogh only ever sold one picture, and he passed away in poverty in 1890. 3. It was only after his passing that Monet's painting career took off. 4.Before being admitted, Spielberg faced numerous rejections from the University of Southern California School of Cinematic Arts. 5.Vera Wang was a competitive figure skater who was not selected for the US Olympic team. She went on to become one of the most successful designers in history. 6. In 1929, doctors declared that Roger Bannister's heart would burst and informed him it was physically impossible for him to run a mile in under four minutes. 7.Thomas Edison tried 1,000 times until he got the lightbulb just right. 8.Approximately thirty publishers rejected Stephen King's debut book, "Carrie". 9.Years passed during which Eminem was rejected before Dr. Dre took an interest in him. 10.Early in his career, Warren Buffett made a number of bad investments and lost a sizable sum of money. Next time when you are struggling to write/re-write your story you need to go through these examples which are inspirational for us or even if someone judges or comments on your failures just because they succeeded, always remember failure generated more successful products & people. #connections #connectionsatwork #connectandgrow #connectwise

That’s how winning is done.

"That's how winning is done!" Brilliant to see one of Rocky's speeches resonating with a younger audience, in this case a magical interaction with young 'Ro' who has memorised one of the great monologues from the 'Rocky Balboa' movie and recites it to his hero at the Rocky statue. Great to see 77 year old Sylvester Stallone get into the spirit of things and is still a role model and motivator. The legendary actor was in Philadelphia late last year for the inaugural "Rocky Day." If you need a pep talk about the power of resilience - look no further than this one: -- "Let me tell you something you already know." "The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows." "It's a very mean and nasty place and I don't care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it." "You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life." "But it ain't about how hard you hit." "It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward." "How much you can take and keep moving forward." "That's how winning is done!" #KeepMovingForward #SlyAndRo #TheItalianStallion #Rocky Credit: 5am Secrets

Our newest addition to a carefully-crafted series with Liver King explores the modern concept of masculinity, a topic that sparks ongoing discussion and debate. Liver King weighs in with his own perception of what makes a man, a good man, in today's world, leaning on the combination of a powerful voiceover and emotive visuals that collectively articulate ideals of integrity, resilience, and strength. In this 60s narrative, he invites his audience to question their own perception of masculinity, and most importantly, whether their current definition is serving or failing them, in the pursuit of who they wish to be in the world. #1DSCollectiveXLiverKing https://lnkd.in/g24xmUU

#Storytelling Clint Eastwood's FLAGS OF OUR FATHERS is a brilliant exemplar of one of my key principles - the distinction between story and rhetoric. In a nutshell, US Marines scale Mount Suribachi on Iwo Jima in February 1945 to plant the Stars and Stripes, leading to huge morale boosting back home and (ironically) another month of murderous warfare that killed three of the original six flag bearers. The pretext that America is close to bankruptcy requiring the three survivors to tour the country to raise war bonds is a little thin. America would double in wealth over the complete era of World War II - a conflict that placed a refrigerator in every American home and a car in every driveway (leading to a still dangerous equation between war and commerce). Nevertheless I'm sure this was used as leverage at the time. After Guadalcanal, Midway, Tarawa, Leyte Gulf and a dozen other major victories, the threat deployed by the Gud Berger character that if more war bonds were not rustled up, the nation would have to make peace with the Japanese Empire is the flimsiest part of the screenplay. Nevertheless the film is a masterful object lesson in the vast difference between persuasion (any narrative will do) and true story (heroes who didn't feel like such or weren't even, desperately trying to process their actual memories). The fact that there were two flag plantings due to political concerns and confusion between the 'real' planters only exacerbates this dramatic conflict. The film also deploys a great tragic B Story in the story of Ira Hayes, a Pima Native American who displays massive courage on the battlefield but is refused a drink in his racist nation state, counterpointing and deepening this epic irony. The theme of true story versus political pitch is superbly shuffled through three temporal settings - the battle itself, the tour back home and the recent past of older, dying lives. It was hinted at by David Lean in LAWRENCE OF ARABIA, as TE Lawrence becomes a media hero while in reality revenging himself in slaughter after a brutal Turkish rape. It was expertly dramatized in ACE IN THE HOLE, where the reporter played by Kirk Douglas postpones the rescue of someone trapped inside a deep cave to maximize front page attention. The business world is a perfect mirror of FLAGS OF OUR FATHERS. Every success story is a war story in disguise. The PR department just wants the highlights. The collateral damage - environmental, sackings, customer exploitation etc - brushed under the mat. Persuasion convinces, but real story involves at a much deeper level. These nightmared men are not heroes for their country, they simply fought to save each other from sudden and gory death. As Maxwell Scott said in THE MAN WHO SHOT LIBERTY VALLANCE: “When the legend becomes fact, print the legend.” Clint Eastwood created an epic war film that exposed the artificiality of so much history and heroism, obscuring the true stories beneath. A master storysmith.
