#309 Arnold Schwarzenegger (Before He Was Successful)

Arnold mentioned that a particular incident of rejection had influences his motivation to succeed on his own terms. I felt cheated, he said. My parents sent me to a farm and took Minard, that's his brother, on vacation. I was sent to my godmother's farm. Fift miles away.

When they took my brother to Vienna and Salzburg And all these other places. I was ten. I was left there for two months. I was in denial that they had gone away without me.

I knew it had an impact on me. It gave me the will. Desire and drive. That normal life doesn't create. They discounted Arnold from the start, with no one encouraging his vast potential.
