Doblerism #2

Diane Court: Nobody thinks it will work, do they?
Lloyd Dobler: No. You just described every great success story.


A great success story is one that overcomes obstacles and odds. The people involved must show determination, persistence and faith. Someone has to set their mind on it and goes after it wholeheartedly. If people thought it would work there becomes the chance that things will be taken for granted. That a concerted effort is forgotten, because it will eventually happen and therefore why try so hard? If it was easy it wouldn't be great. There would be nothing to separate it from any other story. There is something special about being involved in a great success story – a sense of pride and significant value. I can only hope that everyone at least once in their life gets to be a part of a great success story.
