Some of you have heard about One Red Paperclip, an inspiring true story. The video is about 8 minutes long.
Vishal, I hope you allow this link to stay!

That just shows you what can actually be done with some initiative! I'm staring at my box of multi colored paperclips!

I heard about this awhile ago, but it was amazing to see the video for it on what he went through and what was traded for what.
Simply an amazing story. No doubt others will try or have tried, but they probably won't get that far. He probably had a leg up on this because he was the first to do it and had the media support.

I agree Thomas not only does he live the dream, in the end he also gets the girl.
I think everyone should see this.

I had never heard of that before Roger's post. Thanks for sharing!
Isn't it amazing how a desire, turns in to an idea, turns in to a plan, turns in to a reality. Nothing is impossible!
Really cool!

Roger, that was an awsome clip.
It really shows that you can achieve anything if you want it bad enough.
It also shows that you dont have to complicate your dreams. You just need to understand and focus on what you need to do in order to accomplish it.
Its a good thing that young man never gave up or quite before he even began. I'm pretty sure he had his doubts but why give up before you he began. Its such a powerful lesson. It reminds me of a movie that I watched during a CSG training session. Watch it. It is so motivational and powerful. Do you really know your true potential?

Hey Pheleeto,
Thanks for sharing that, I think what's also very important in that message is how vital it is to have a good mentor, a coach to help push you to your limits.
Most, if not all successful people have a coach, a mentor. And as we all know you cannot succeed without the help of other people, be that a mentor or a downline it doesn't matter, we all need each other.
