Chapter 68
How Important Is It To You?
There is an old fable concerning a dog that
bragged about his speed as a runner. One day the dog
chased a rabbit but failed to catch it. Other dogs made
fun of him but he explained, "Remember the rabbit was
running for his life, while I was running only for the fun
of chasing him».
In that fable you will find one of the most valu-
able lessons for success in life. It simply is this:
A key factor in success is how hard you really
try. And how hard you try depends upon how important
it is to you!
In Chapter 55, titled: "How To Be A Billion-
naire», I gave you billionaire J. Paul Getty's advice on
how to do it: "TRY HARDERI"
Well, how does one develop the personal drive
to try harder?
You'll find the key in one word: DESIRE.
