A touching little Excerpt into the rising of Sylvester Stallone [Rambo]

Sylvester stallone

This is one of the Touching stories ever told in
Hollywood. His name is Sylvester Stallone. One of
the
BIGGEST and Most famous American Movie
superstars. Back in the day, Stallone was a
struggling actor in
every definition. At some point, he got so broke
that
he stole his wife's jewellery and sold it.

 Things got
so
bad that he even ended up homeless. Yes, he
slept at the New York bus station for 3 days.
Unable to pay rent or afford food. His lowest
point came when he tried to sell his dog at
the liquor store to any stranger. He didnt have
money
to feed the dog anymore. He sold it at $25 only.
He
says he walked away crying. 

Two weeks later, he
saw a boxing match between
Mohammed Ali and Chuck Wepner and that
match
gave him the inspiration to write the script for the
famous movie, ROCKY. He wrote the script for 20
hours. He tried to sell it and got an offer for
$125,000 for the
script. But he had just ONE REQUEST. He wanted
to
STAR in the movie. He wanted to be the MAIN
ACTOR. Rocky himself. But the studio said NO.
They wanted a
REAL STAR. They said he "Looked funny and
talked
funny". He left with his script. A few weeks later,
the studio offered him $250,000
for the script. He refused. They even offered $
350,000. He still refused. They wanted his movie.
But
NOT him. He said NO. He had to be IN THAT
MOVIE. After a while, the studio agreed, gave him
$35,000
for the script and let him star in it! The rest is
history!

The movie won Best Picture, Best Directing and
Best
Film Editing at the prestigious Oscar Awards. He
was
even nominated for BEST ACTOR! The Movie
ROCKY
was even inducted into the American National
Film Registry as one of the greatest movies ever!
And do You know the first thing he bought with
the
$35,000? THE DOG HE SOLD. Yes, Stallone LOVED
HIS DOG SO MUCH that he stood at
the liquor store for 3 days waiting for the man he
sold his dog to. And on the 3rd day, he saw the
man coming with the
dog. Stallone explained why he sold the dog and
begged for the dog back. The man refused.
Stallone
offered him $100. The man refused. He offered
him $
500. And the guy refused. Yes, he refused even
$1000. And, Believe it or Not,
Stallone had to pay $15,000 for the same, same
dog
he sold at $25 only! Yes! And he finally got his
dog
back! And today, the same Stallone who slept in
the streets
and sold his dog JUST BECAUSE he couldnt even
feed
it anymore, is one of the GREATEST Movie Stars
who
ever walked the Earth! People, Being broke is
BAD. Really BAD. Have You
ever had a dream? A wonderful dream? But You
are
too broke to implement it? Too tiny to do it? Too
small to accomplish it? Damn! I've been there too
many times! Life is tough. Opportunities will pass
you by, just
because you are a NOBODY. People will want your
products but NOT YOU. Its a tough world. If you
aint
already famous,or rich or "connected", You will
find it
rough. Doors will be shut on You. People will steal
your glory
and crash your hopes. Yes, You will push and
push. And yet NOTHING WILL HAPPEN. And then
your
hopes will be crashed. You will be broke. Damn
broke. You will do odd jobs for survival. You will
be unable
to feed yourself. And Yes, you may end up
sleeping
in the streets. It happens. Yes, it does. BUT
NEVER LET THEM CRUSH
THAT DREAM. Whatever happens to You, Keep
Dreaming. Even when they crush your hopes,
Keep Dreaming.
Even when they turn you away, Keep Dreaming.
Even when they shut you down, Keep Dreaming.
NO ONE KNOWS WHAT YOU ARE CAPABLE OF
EXCEPT
YOURSELF! People will judge You by HOW you
look.
And by WHAT You have. But please, Fight on!
Fight for Your place in history.
Fight for your glory. NEVER EVER GIVE UP! Even if
it means selling all your clothes and sleeping
with the dogs, ITS OKAY! But AS LONG AS YOU
ARE STILL ALIVE, Your STORY IS
NOT OVER. TRUST ME!
