dreams that seem impossible

even if we try hard we will always feel the frustration of not succeeding. Boone
Pickens, Chairman of BP Capital Management tells how, despite everything he
had to go through in his life, he blamed no one for his mistakes. Playing
someone as a child is very difficult to be as an adult. Today we communicate
quickly by making a call and leaving a message only if it is necessary to be
successful. First of all, having healthy habits such as having self-confidence as
well as having a purpose that gives you reasons and strength to follow a path
implies many things, he tells us. With the advice of his grandmother, he was
able to overcome many challenges, he used to borrow books from the library to
continue studying economics, he brings an apple to his office almost every day
to remember his grandmother

For him, it is necessary to have good discipline and listen to constructive

criticism, make a good work team and have self-confidence. the sense of
initiative is not something you find, it is something you are. the truth is not
something you look for it is something you live and at the same time the
supreme form of ignorance is to reject something you knew nothing about.
because if it is necessary to strive to be successful you will have to do it
because suddenly the elevator to success does not work today, you have to go
up the ladder and climb the steps one by one

He tells us how one day he pretended to be a rookie at work and he observed

how his workers behaved, they had ordered him to do the jobs he did not have
to do and they made fun of him for his clothes, he saw how his workers did not
respect him, moreover not doing their jobs well. the experience he had as a
worker made him understand basic things and see that there were many
prejudices and he made the decision to do an inspection and give talks about
how he could overcome his fears and that everyone had opportunities if they
made an effort and hard discipline with their habits

That experience is to improve the way you address your employees and for a
long time, you have heard how your company has improved and not only
because of the experience you had but also because of the way you faced your
problems and overcome them.
