1974. Brooklyn, New York. 13-year-old teenager Michael lives in a notorious slum. America could not get out completely from apartheid. Still, for the blacks found in jobs. Four siblings on top, Michael's father had to eat ice cream.
Michael himself is worried
about his future, does not like studying at all. If you get the time to go on
top of Michael Tyler and see the sunset, how can the sun be on the city, it
feels like the city, it feels good.
One day Michael's
father gave him an old t-shirt. He said, "How much the price can be?"
Michael responds a lot
- 'highest one dollar'
Michael's father gave
a job to his youngest son - 'Try, how to sell this t-shirt for two dollars.
It's going to be difficult for me and your mother to run the family too. Many
will be able to get these two dollars.
Michael sat down and
started thinking. Then Michael cleaned the old t-shirt, dry in the sun. T-shirts did not have clothes in the
house, and the old shirt stitched the t-shirt. Then, after six hours of effort,
Michael could sell T-shirt to a passenger in the subway, two dollars.
'Keep it' - Michael's
father said in shouting. 'That's your earning'.
The next morning,
Michael's father gave him an old t-shirt. He said, 'Will it sell for twenty
dollars?
Michael laughs this time
- 'Impossible, who will buy twenty dollars in this shirt?
Dad said, 'Possible,
try and you
Michael wondered how
to sell this dirty shirt for 20 dollars. As before, she cleaned the shirt, she
dressed. Then there came a nice idea on her head.
A friend of Michael
draws an excellent picture. Michael bought Mickey Mouse from T-shirt with his
friend and bought the color and puff with the previous two dollars. Then with
T-shirts, one of Brooklyn's rich children tried to sell one kindergarten.
After almost all-out
efforts, a conditioned child was very fond of T-shirt. He persuaded his father
to buy it. The gentleman did not buy just twenty dollars, and Michael gave five
dollars to the biscuits.
'$ 25 !!' - Michael's
family earns the whole week !!
Then in the morning
Michael's father gave Michael another old t-shirt. He said, 'Now try, sell this
t-shirt for $ 200.
Michael but do not
laugh again Instead of thinking about the t-shirt, how it can be sold for $
200.
In America, the
'Charlie's Angels' movie is at the peak of popularity. The movie starring Farah
Fowler came to promote Promotion in New York. At the end of the press
conference, when the actress reached the Greenroom, she saw a black teenager
standing in a 13-year-old girl with a t-shirt.
'Ma'am, I'm a fool of
you. Would you please give me an autograph, my t-shirt?
The actress laughed,
it is not the question of not having such a beautiful baby.
A week later, a black
teenager in Brooklyn's auction house was seen. She came to the auction of a
teaser to give the autographs of Miss Farah Fawler's.
A businessman bought
the t-shirt for $ 1250.
At that time, while
sleeping on my father's side, Michael's father said, 'Michael, what did you
learn from selling this t-shirt?'
Michael responds with
seriously, "Where there is a way, there
is a way."
Michael's father shook
his head 'Look, boy, what you said is true. But I just wanted to teach you that
a little old t-shirt can be sold for a lot of money, if you want. God has given
us birth in this slum, this lack of living, that does not mean that we have to
spend our whole life here. In my own efforts, one day we can be successful, we
can be successful. Do not let yourself be disappointed, Michael; Rather learn
to see life differently. '
After this incident, Forbes
magazine, interviewed one of the world's top-earning players after the event. The
Gentleman is a living legend of basketball, whose annual income is more than 40
million, with thousands of brands like Nike and thousands of brands. He is the
world's first billionaire player, the world's third largest African-American
billionaire. When he was asked about the secret of his success in the
interview, he again said, "Where there is a way, there is a way."
The gentleman's name
is Michael Jordan.
