Take heart from some of the greatest dreamers that ever lived:
“You ain’t goin’ nowhere, son. You ought to go back to drivin’ a truck.” Jim Denny, manager of the Grand Ole Opry, to Elvis Presley in 1954
“We don’t like their sound and guitar music is on the way out.” Dick Rowe of the Decca Recording Company who rejected The Beatles in 1962
He “lacked imagination and had no original ideas.” The reason a newspape4r editor gave for firing Walt Disney
Never give up on your dreams because someone else doesn’t understand your vision. Be relentless about YOU.
