			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Walt Disney, an American entrepreneur, is so well known that hardly anyone the world over has not been affected in some way or another by his existence. His role in the entertainment industry is nothing short of legendary.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.peoplesuccess.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/walt_disney.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-large wp-image-604" title="walt disney" src="http://www.peoplesuccess.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/walt_disney-1024x766.jpg" alt="walt disney quote" width="645" height="482" /></a><br />
Born Walter Elias Disney on December 5, 1901, he has been an animator, voice actor, film producer, director, screenwriter, international icon, and philanthropist. As a film producer, Walt Disney has received 22 Academy Awards with 59 nominations, receiving four awards in one year! Disney also received seven Emmy awards. He gave his name to the popular theme park resorts, in locations both domestically and internationally: Disneyland, Walt Disney World Resort (and EPCOT Center) in the U.S., and Disneyland Paris, Disneyland Hong Kong and Tokyo Disney.<br />
Disney was born in Chicago from his Irish father Elias and German-American mother Flora. His great-grandfather was born in 1801, an Irish immigrant from Kilkenny, Ireland. Their unusual surname is descended from a Frenchman named d&#8217;Isigny who had traveled to England with William the Conqueror in 1066, later settling in K&#8230;.<br />
Disney&#8217;s father Elias had traveled to California in search of gold, later returning to his parents&#8217; farm in Ellis, Kansas. He later gained employment at Union Pacific Railroad, married Flora Call and settled in Chicago, IL in 1890. When Walt was four years old, the family moved to Marceline, Missouri, where young Disney discovered his love and talent for drawing. There, Walt Disney received his first paid job to animate a neighbor&#8217;s dog for a sketch. He also developed an interest in trains, since Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe railroad passed through Marceline, clearly evident in his Disneyland theme parks. After four years in Marceline, the family moved to Kansas City, where he befriended Walter Pfeiffer, whose family worked in vaudeville and motion pictures. Walt, with brother Roy and sister Ruth, attended Electric Park near their home, which is an early influence of his later design of Disneyland. He also attended the Kansas City Art Institute on Saturdays, perfecting his drawing technique.<br />
Elias Disney moved the family back to Chicago, where Walt attended McKinley High and night courses at the Chicago Art Institute. He was the high school newspaper cartoonist. He left high school early to join the army, but was only sixteen and was rejected for being underage. Not giving up, he and his friend joined the Red Cross and were sent to France for a year, but by this time the November 1918 armistice had been signed.<br />
After the war, he returned to Kansas City to begin his artistic career. Not finding work at first, his brother Roy found him a temporary job at the Pesmen-Rubin Art Studio creating advertisements for movie theaters, newspapers and magazines. There he met Ubbe Iwerks, and they decided to go into business together.<br />
While their firm was short of work, Walt Disney freelanced at the Kansas City Film Ad Company, making commercials from cutout animations. The owner allowed Walt to borrow a camera and practice at home. Disney later decided that he preferred cel animation (celluloid). He again opened his own business, hiring Kansas City Film Ad Company coworker Fred Harman, and sold cartoons to Frank Newman, a popular showman in Kansas City. Newman owned his own theater, drew in a good crowd, and Disney sold him his cartoon shorts which were called Laugh-O-Grams. These cartoons became widely popular. He was able to acquire his own studio (also called Laugh-o-Grams) and hired a staff, including Harman&#8217;s brother Hugh and close friend Ubbe Iwerks. The profits were insufficient to keep the business afloat, and Disney became debt-ridden, finally declaring bankruptcy. Instead of becoming discouraged, Walt decided to move to Hollywood CA where the movie industry was headquartered.<br />
In Hollywood, Walt and Roy opened a new studio looking to sell the undistributed Alice Comedies based on Alice in Wonderland. A New York distributor Margaret Winkler was interested. She loved Walt&#8217;s collection and wanted to create more animated shorts.<br />
Disney requested that the star of Alice move to Hollywood, as well as Iwerks and his family. In 1925, he met and hired a young woman at the studio named Lillian Bounds, who he married the same year.<br />
Together, they created Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, an immediately successful cartoon character which was drawn by Iworks. With an expanded staff and new opportunities, Walt went to New York. There, he intended to negotiate a better rate with Charles Mintz, Margaret Winkler&#8217;s husband and business manager. As it happened, Mintz double crossed Disney by recruiting his staff to work for Mintz out from under him, insisting that Disney take a cut in pay. Only Iworks, who refused to leave Disney, remained. Again, Walt Disney had to start from the beginning, without his staff and without his star character, Oswald. Mickey Mouse was the result of Walt Disney&#8217;s frustration in losing Oswald, which he finally regained the rights to in 2006, 78 years later.<br />
Mickey Mouse was the next character, which was drawn by Ub, but his voice and soul emitted from Walt himself. Originally named Mortimer, Lillian Disney renamed him Mickey because “Mortimer did not fit“. Mickey&#8217;s first films were silent cartoons called Plane Crazy and Galloping Gaucho. The first sound movie was Steamboat Willie, an instant success, and subsequent movies were re-released with soundtracks. Mickey overtook Felix the Cat in cartoon ratings, skyrocketing in popularity by the early 1930s. Iwork left Disney to work for another filmmaker, Powers, but returned in 1940 to help pioneer new filmmaking techniques and processes.<br />
Meanwhile Betty Boop had overshadowed Mickey Mouse for a spell, and Herbert Kalmus approached Disney to produce Flowers and Trees in a Technicolor version. The film won the 1932 Academy Award for Best Short Subject – Cartoons and his earlier, less successful Silly Symphonies was re-released in color. In 1933 he produced the very successful, months long running The Three Little Pigs with the newfound anthem of the Great Depression “Who&#8217;s Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf“.<br />
Disney received a special Academy Award for creating Mickey Mouse, and soon began creating support characters – Donald Duck, Goofy and so on. In 1933, the Disneys gave birth to a daughter, Diane Marie Disney, and in 1936, adopted another Sharon Mae Disney.<br />
In 1934, Disney began production on a highly technically advanced new film concept called Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. When the production had run out of money, Disney arranged a special screening of the film to Bank of America executives who agreed to lend him money. On its premier December 21, 1937, the film was so well received that it brought the audience to their feet for a standing ovation. The first full-length animated color film feature, it became the most successful motion picture of 1938 and earned the equivalent of over $122 million in modern day revenue equivalency.<br />
Nearly two years to the date since the opening of Snow White, Disney opened his new Burbank Studios. The Golden Age of Animation had begun. Pinocchio, Fantasia and Bambi were produced as well as Alice in Wonderland, Peter Pan and Wind in the Willows. Compared to Snow White, these animated films were financial disappointments. Some of Disney&#8217;s staff went on strike, causing tension between the cartoon artists and their mentor.<br />
World War II began, and Disney produced training films for the US Army. These were non-revenue producing. He also produced Der Fuhrer&#8217;s Face and The Three Caballeros during the course of the war. Snow White was re-released, starting a seven year cycle of re-releasing films after their initial release date.<br />
After the war ended, Disney experimented with films combining animation with live film footage, like Song of the South.<br />
In the late 1940s, Disney began sketching an idea for a park where his employees could enjoy after hours fun with their families. He may have gotten the idea from a visit to the Oakland, CA Children&#8217;s Fairyland or from Republic of the Children in La Plata, Argentina. He told his friend and financier, “I want it to look like nothing else in the world. And I want it to be surrounded by a train.”<br />
Disney spent five years developing Disneyland. The park finally opened on July 18, 1955 and was very well received, with Ronald Reagan, Art Linkletter and the mayor of Anaheim in attendance. That day, there was a problem with water so Disneyland provided its waiting guests in the hot sun free refreshment.<br />
After Disneyland, the studio began to expand into other areas, like the production of Treasure Island which was its first ever live action feature. The Shaggy Dog, Pollyanna, Swiss Family Robinson and other wholesome American classic films were made, as well as the Davy Crockett miniseries which spurred a great response from the youth. In 1955, the Mickey Mouse Club, debuted, which remained a popular TV show both domestically and internationally for more than a generation.<br />
Headed up by Buena Vista Distribution, Walt&#8217;s group continued to produce full length animated films, like Sleeping Beauty, Lady and the Tramp, 101 Dalmatians, and the Sword in the Stone.<br />
Disney&#8217;s Sunday night TV show was called The Wonderful World of Disney and offered family type entertainment. It aired from the 1950s until 1981 when CBS bought the series. Now it airs for special broadcast deals on various channels. The opening of the show began with Jiminy Cricket&#8217;s song “When you wish upon a Star“, with Tinker bell lighting an explosion of fireworks over Sleeping Beauty&#8217;s castle at Disneyland.<br />
In 1964, Disney announced a new theme park slated for Orlando, Florida, but its primary attraction would be the EPCOT center. The initials stand for Experimental Prototype City (or Community) of Tomorrow and was an expanded version of Disneyland&#8217;s Tomorrow land.<br />
Walt Disney died on December 15, 1966 of lung cancer – he was 65 years old. He had created an empire that continues to expand. A few years after his death, Roy Disney began heading up operations. The film studio produced countless feature films under the Touchstone label. On a commercial level, the popular Disney Store was introduced to the American public, where children of all ages can buy their favorite character or animal. With Disneyland in Hong Kong, Paris and Tokyo, the cultural and commercial effect of his dream truly affected the world.</p>

<p dir="ltr"><strong><a href="http://www.peoplesuccess.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/oprah.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-600" title="oprah winfrey" src="http://www.peoplesuccess.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/oprah-300x191.jpg" alt="Oprah Winfrey Childhood's photo" width="300" height="191" /></a></strong></p>
<p>Oprah Winfrey, formerly a poor black woman born of an unwed black mother, does not fit the prescription for a billion dollar entrepreneur extraordinaire, but that is exactly what she is. Her legendary story is based on her spirit, her desire and her persistence in the face of obstacles to succeed and move forward.<br />
Born on January 29, 1954, in she is best known for her self-titled, multi-award winning talk show, which was in syndication from 1986 to 2011. She is also an actress, producer, talk show host, philanthropist and media mogul. She was the first black billionaire and the richest black female of African American heritage in the 20th century.<br />
Born in rural Kosciusko, Mississippi, she was the product of a single sexual encounter. Her mother, Vernita Lee (b. 1935) was a housemaid, and Oprah was mostly raised by her maternal grandmother. She was so poor that she wore dresses made of potato sacks, for which the other children made fun of her. Of all the women in her life, her grandmother was her greatest support, teaching her how to read by age three and was known for her Bible recitations.<br />
In fact, she was constantly shuffled back and forth during her childhood and experienced considerable hardship. She recalls being molested by her cousin, her uncle and a family friend, was raped at age 9 and gave birth to a baby boy at age 14, who died in infancy.<br />
Oprah was a bright student, and was entered into the honors program in high school. There were problems there too, since she was poor and classmates would rub her poverty in her nose. Even so, she excelled. Stealing money from her mother, fighting and going out with older boys, she was in a period of rebellion which shows in her determined character. She went to live with the man she believed to be her father, Vernon Winfrey, a barber in Tennessee. (She later learned that her real father was a man named Noah … born in 1925.)<br />
Oprah flourished in Nashville. Her first job was in a supermarket. Vernon Winfrey was strict but encouraging, and Oprah began to study in earnest. She excelled in her studies, winning awards for drama and oration and was voted Most Popular Girl.<br />
She won the first Miss Black Tennessee beauty pageant, where she attracted her first job offer in the media, working for radio station WVOL as a co-anchored for the evening news. She was employed there from her senior year in high school through her first two years of college. Due to her excellent academic record, she won a full scholarship to Tennessee State University where she majored in Communications.<br />
Her personable style got her career boosted into the daytime talk arena, to the point that the Chicago firm she landed in went up in ratings from third to first place. Not long after, she started her own production company and became internationally syndicated. Oprah&#8217;s grandmother had always said she was born to be on stage, since she used to interview corncob dolls and crows on the fence on their farm. Oprah says it was her grandmother Hattie Mae who influenced her the most and gave her “a positive sense of myself.”<br />
She is thought to have revolutionized the talk show arena which started with Phil Donahue&#8217;s style of confession and intimacy with the studio and TV audience. Oprah took it a step further. By adding spirituality, literature, self-improvement and more, her emotional approach, which has been criticized by some and adored by the majority of modern women, has enabled her to become a benefactor to many.<br />
Oprah&#8217;s career path went from radio to TV, and after Chicago she became the first female black anchor at Nashville&#8217;s WLAC TV. Then she moved to Baltimore to anchor the WJZ evening news and became a local talk show host with Richard Sher on People are Talking in 1978.<br />
In 1983, Oprah returned to Chicago to host WLS-TVs miserably low rated morning talk show AM Chicago. Just a few months later, the last place rated talk show overtook Phil Donahue as being the highest rated talk show in Chicago.<br />
There, her friend and short-lived romantic partner Roger Ebert convinced her to sign a syndication agreement with King World, saying that she would make 40 times more revenue than his popular series called At the Movies.<br />
Named The Oprah Winfrey Show, it first aired on September 8, 1986, and within a short time, brought in double Donahue&#8217;s audience.<br />
Known for her heavy figure and being a black female, no one would have guessed that she had the power to oust a white male from this traditionally male dominated position. In the beginning, her show was listed as a tabloid talk show, but as Oprah&#8217;s topics began to diversify for a wider audience, the quality and dignity of her show became readily apparent. By the mid-1990s, the innovative entrepreneur was covering topics like heart disease, geopolitics, cancer, substance abuse, interviewing celebrities on social issues and charity work.<br />
As an actress, Oprah has starred in the Women of Brewster Place, as well as for her role as Sophia in the Color Purple which she was nominated an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress. As a producer, she co-founded a women&#8217;s cable TV network Oxygen, and converted the Discovery Health Channel to OWN Oprah Winfrey Network, which was launched on January 1, 2011. She is also the President of Harpo Communications, which is Oprah spelled in reverse.<br />
Celebrity interviews include a rare, prime time interview with Michael Jackson, the most watched TV interview ever, with a 36 million viewing audience. When she was appeared to help promote the Broadway musical The Color Purple as a guest on the David Letterman Show in December 1, 2005, she helped him reach his highest ratings in 11 years – an audience of 13.45 million viewers. Two years later, David returned the favor, guesting Oprah&#8217;s show on September 10, 2007.</p>
<p>Oprah told rappers Ludacris, 50 Cent and Ice Cube that she refused to support rap lyrics that “marginalize women“. For Barrack Obama, she won an estimated 1 million votes due to her endorsement of the Democratic candidate from 2006 to his victorious election in 2008.<br />
The Oprah.com website gets a hefty 70 million page views per month, with links to her highly acclaimed book club, magazines, public charity and Oprah&#8217;s Child Predator Watch, enabling two escaped convicts to be captured within a 48 hour period.<br />
Oprah admits to having had a weight problem for most of her life, which seems to be related with her romantic difficulties. Her childhood took a heavy toll on her, and she attracted the wrong kinds of men, including a liaison with “cruel, self absorbed” types, including a married man, an abusive man, and a few interracial relationships that did not go the distance. Oprah had begun a romantic friendship with Haitian filmmaker Reginald Chevalier in 1985, but she ended it when she met her current partner Stedman Graham the same year. They have been together since 1986. The couple was allegedly engaged to be married in November 1992, but the ceremony has never taken place.<br />
Oprah&#8217;s best friend is another black female professional in the Communications profession named Gayle King, who she has known since her early twenties. She is also close with Maria Shriver, as well as Maya Angelou the poet authoress. Oprah threw her “mother-sister-friend” (as she calls her) a fabulous 70th birthday celebration and once again for her 80th birthday celebration.<br />
Her annual earnings in 2008 were $275 million. Her estimated net worth is $2.7 billion, and she has replaced E-Bay CEO Meg Whitman as the richest self-made woman in America.</p>

<p>Mark E. Zuckerman was born on May 14th, 1984 in White Plains, NY. Both of his parents are doctors. His mother is a psychiatrist and his father is a dentist. He has three sisters. Raised in the Jewish faith, he considers himself an atheist. An American computer programmer, he attended Harvard University. He is best known for creating the social networking program Facebook, for which a film was produced. In 2011, his estimated worth was $17.5 billion dollars.</p>
<p>He was a Harvard student when he created the world famous popular Facebook, but his interest in computers started long before.</p>
<p><em><strong>Early Attempts at Programming</strong></em><br />
<a href="http://www.peoplesuccess.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/markz.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-593" title="mark zuckerberg" src="http://www.peoplesuccess.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/markz.jpg" alt="Mark Zuckerberg's Success" width="275" height="183" /></a>In the 1990s his father saw his potential, and began teaching him Atari Basic Programming. His father arranged for a tutor, David Newman to teach him. His tutor called him a “prodigy“and admitted it was hard to keep up with his gifted teenaged pupil. Simultaneously, while Mark attended high school, he attended a graduate level programming class at Mercy College. In his spare time, he created a primitive version of AOL Messenger that he named “ZuckNet“ which was intended to help his father in his dental business which he ran from home. The program enabled all the computers in the house and office to communicate by pinging with each other on the internet. Programming was child&#8217;s play to him. If his friends had an idea, he would turn it into a game.<br />
In 2001, Mark fiddled around with many new programs, most notably a music listening one. By employing artificial intelligence which measured the listener&#8217;s favored music choices, the Synapse program would create a new, relevant play list. Submitting it into a contest, he earned a 3 of 5 from PC Magazine, attracting both the interest and subsequent job offers from notable giants Microsoft and AOL, who wanted to buy Synapse. Turning them down, he went to Harvard in 2002 instead.</p>
<p><strong><em>Mark the Programmer</em></strong><br />
Mark doesn&#8217;t fit the geeky computer programming nerd stereotype. In high school, he majored in the classics and can speak French, Hebrew, ancient Greek and Latin. A lover of Greek philosophy, he was known in college for quoting lines from epic Greek classics like the Iliad by Homer. He was also a champion fencer and the captain of the fencing team. Mark was always the kind of guy with lots of friends, not a geeky nerd stereotype that some computer programmers get to live up to.</p>
<p><strong><em>Harvard days</em></strong><br />
Mark had the reputation of being a programming prodigy. The social network Facebook began completely by accident. At Harvard there is a student directory called the Face Book. It contains a photo of each student and some basic information.</p>
<p>Before long, he became known on campus for being a programming prodigy. Just for fun he started putting together a rating game with two college photos asking students to select who was the hotter of the two. Called Face mash, it caused the Harvard internet system to overload and student complained that their photos were being used without their permission. Even though he later apologized for the action, students began requesting that something similar be set up online to be able to share photos and personal information. Mark then decided that he would do it, if the University wouldn&#8217;t – and that it would be better than anyone could have imagined it would be.</p>
<p>Mark is technically colorblind, which means the entrepreneur can&#8217;t see red or green. Of all the colors, he can see blue the best, which is the most dominant color of Facebook.<br />
<a href="http://www.peoplesuccess.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/markz2.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-594" title="Mark Zuckerberg - Facebook CEO" src="http://www.peoplesuccess.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/markz2.jpg" alt="Facebook Founder - Mark Zuckerberg" width="292" height="172" /></a>Facebook was launched on 4 Feb 2004. At first, it was just a Harvard thing. People could look up their friends; send messages, share info and chat. Then other universities got in on it. With the help of his friend and roommate, Dustin Moskovitz, Stanford, Dartmouth, Columbia, NYU, Cornell, Penn, Brown and Yale joined the Facebook network. Facebook&#8217;s first investor was Peter Thiel in 2004, and soon offers came in from major corporations to buy Facebook from Mark Zucherberg.<br />
Regarding the interest in his program, the corporate offers coming in to buy out Facebook, Mark declined. “It&#8217;s not because of the amount of money. For me and my colleagues, the most important thing is we create an open information flow for people. Having media corporations owned by conglomerates is just not an attractive idea to me.”<br />
He believes that it&#8217;s OK to break things in order to make them better. He also considers himself a hacker. In July 2010, Facebook reached the 500 million user mark. The potential in ad revenue if they were to double advertising space could phenomenally impact the company further, but Mark disagrees. “That’s the simplest thing we could do. But we aren’t like that. We make enough money. Right, I mean, we are keeping things running; we are growing at the rate we want to. “<br />
Zuckerberg was named number 1 on Vanity Fair magazine’s 2010 list of the Top 100 &#8220;most influential people of the Information Age&#8221;. A year earlier, Mark Zuckerberg was also on the list, but on the 23rd position. In 2010, Zuckerberg was the 16th most influential person as chosen on the annual survey of New Statesman’s global top 50 most influential figures.<br />
Zuckerberg said that Jobs had advised him on how to create a management team at Facebook that was &#8220;focused on building as high quality and good things as you are,&#8221; in a 2011 PBS interview with after the untimely death of Steve Jobs, creator of Apple.<br />
Four years before, Zuckerberg had been named to the MIT Technology Review in 2007 as one of the top 35 innovators in the world under the age of 35.<br />
The Social Network was a movie produced with Mark Zuckerman&#8217;s fabulous success story as its basis. It unnerved him a little to have a movie made after him, saying, “I just wished that nobody made a movie of me while I was still alive.“ His role was played by Jesse Eisenberg, and was not portrayed in a wholly positive light. Later, when the two men met, and Jesse asked what he had thought of the movie Social Network, Zuckerberg said “I thought it was interesting.” Jesse commented that “Mark has been so gracious about something&#8230;that, I think, could otherwise be very uncomfortable.”<br />
Zuckerberg had made an arrangement in September 2010 to donate $100 million to the Newark Public Schools system. Some were critical of this decision, saying that the timing of the donation was close to the film release of The Social Network, painting a somewhat negative image of Zuckerberg. The Facebook mogul responded to the criticism, saying, &#8220;The thing that I was most sensitive about with the movie timing was, I didn’t want the press about The Social Network movie to get conflated with the Newark project. I was thinking about doing this anonymously just so that the two things could be kept separate.“ According to both Newark’s mayor and New York state governor Chris Christie, they had to work hard to convince Mark Zuckerberg to not make the donation anonymously.<br />
In December 2010, Zuckerberg joined forces with several ultra wealthy men: Warren Buffett and Billl Gates, for example, to donate to charity at least half of their income. Called “The Giving Pledge”, the group invited other wealthy tycoons to donate 50% or more of their wealthy to charity.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Bill Gates &#8211; The Richest man in the world!</strong></p>
<p>Bill Gates was born on October 28, 1955 in Seattle in a family having rich business, political and community service background. His great-grandfather was a state legislator and a mayor, his grandfather was vice president of national bank and his father was a lawyer.<br />
Bill believed in achieving his goals through hard work. He also believes that if you are intelligent and know how to use your intelligence, you can reach your goals and targets. From his early days Bill was ambitious, competitive and intelligent. These qualities helped him to attain great position in the profession he chose also Bill was deemed by his peers and his teachers as the smartest kid on campus; Bill’s parents came to know their son’s intelligence and decided to enroll him in a private school, known for its intense academic environment. That was the most important decision in Bill Gate’s life where he was first introduced to computers. Bill Gates and his friends were very much interested in computer and formed “Programmers Group” in late 1968. Being in this group, they found a new way to apply their computer skill in university of Washington. In the next year, they got their first opportunity in Information Sciences Inc. in which they were selected as programmers. ISI (Information Sciences Inc.) agreed to give them royalties, whenever it made money from any of the group’s program. As a result of the business deal signed with Information Sciences Inc., the group also became a legal business.<br />
Bill Gates and his close friend Allen formed a new company of their own, Traf-O-Data. They developed a small computer to measure traffic flow. From this project they earned around $20,000. The era of Traf-O-Data came to an end when Gates left the college. Upon graduating from Lakeside Bill enrolled in Harvard University in 1973, one of the best universities in the country, He didn’t know what to do, so he enrolled his name for pre-law. He took the standard freshman courses with the exception of signing up for one of Harvard’s toughest mathematics courses. He did well over there, but he couldn’t find it interesting too. He spent many long nights in front of the school’s computer and the next day asleep in class. After leaving school, he almost lost himself from the world of computers. Gates and his friend Paul Allen remained in close contact even though they were away from school. They would often discuss new ideas for future projects and the possibility of starting a business one fine day. At the end of Bill’s first year, Allen came close to him so that they could follow some of their ideas. That summer they got job in Honeywell. Allen kept on pushing Bill for opening a new software company.<br />
Within a year, Bill Gates dropped out from Harvard. Then he formed Microsoft. Microsoft’s vision is “A computer on every desk and Microsoft software on every computer”. Bill is a visionary person and works very hard to achieve his vision. His belief in high intelligence and hard work has put him where he is today. He does not believe in mere luck or God’s grace, but just hard work and competitiveness. Bill’s Microsoft is good competition for other software companies and he will continue to stomp out (challenge) the competition until he dies. He likes to play the game of Risk and the game of world domination. His beliefs are so powerful, which have helped him increase his wealth and his monopoly in the industry.<br />
Bill Gates is not a greedy person. In fact, he is quite giving person when it comes to computers, internet and any kind of funding. Some years back, he visited Chicago’s Einstein Elementary School and announced grants benefiting Chicago’s schools and museums where he donated a total of $110,000, a bunch of computers, and provided internet connectivity to number of schools. Secondly, Bill Gates donated 38 million dollars for the building of a computer institute at Stanford University.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Challenge Need</strong><br />
Do we really need challenge to achieve success in our lives? Well the answer for this question lies within each one of us and yes we all need the challenge part in order to take the success path, and it is not necessarily that you overcome all the challenges that face you in your journey to success, challenges are there to make you more enthusiastic about achieving your goals and reaching your distention.<br />
<a href="http://www.peoplesuccess.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/challenge-poster-l.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-500" title="challenging" src="http://www.peoplesuccess.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/challenge-poster-l-300x199.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="199" /></a><br />
Also the challenges help us identify and clarify our visions in which by them we would reach the targeted goals in our lives and no success shall be achieved without the existence of the vision.<br />
<strong>Successful Vision</strong><br />
Every one of us should have a vision for his life, and even have a vision for the way for achieving it and working for it, believe in your own dreams and also believe that God has a greater dream for you and its more that you can wish for yourself, believing in this makes you beats all the odds in your way and surrender to GodÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s greater plan for you that would take you to the next best place in your life would make you see all the challenges you have faced through your journey as small little stones thrown at you to make you stronger and tougher in this life.<br />
<strong>Success Road</strong><br />
Neither the way nor the destination matters, what really matters is the journey itself and the end of the race and when you get to reach the end line you get to look back at your journey and see how much you have achieved and what you have been through this is the real success and the taste of this will stay with you forever, as they say in order to taste the sweetness of success you should first taste the bitterness of failure and believe me this is what really matters, counting the lessons that you have learned along this journey and the challenges you have overcome, being at the top is not easy , reaching your goals is not simple but in the same time this is not impossible to achieve, believe in God, In yourself, and in your skills and capabilities then start all your engines , work hard for it, then you are finally there, not pleasure would be compared to this joy of getting what you want.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.peoplesuccess.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/who-moved-cheese.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-497" title="Who moved my cheese" src="http://www.peoplesuccess.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/who-moved-cheese-200x300.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="300" /></a>Recently I came across a nice and inspirational book called (Who Moved My Cheese) and I wanted to share with you my thoughts about the book and how amusing would it be for you to go and buy such a book.<br />
When I read this book it was and still an inspiration for me, the best thing about it, is the simplicity of the story that has the great meaning and value behind it, in another words it&#8217;s an inspiring and amazing way to handle change in your life and career and anything else.<br />
Who Moved My Cheese is a symbolic story with a deep and moral meaning about the change in life, it&#8217;s an enlightening story about four characters that lives in a maze and the characters are: two mice are named Sniff and Scurry, which resembles to (Sniff : Who sniffs out change early, Scurry: Who scurries into action).<br />
And two little people (Hem: Who denies and resists change as he fears it will lead to something worse) and (Haw: Who learns to adapt in time when he sees changing can lead to something better).<br />
The Cheese resembles to whatever goals you want to reach and achieve wither in your life or your work.<br />
The Maze resembles to the environment that you are trying to achieve your goals in, your firm, family and community.<br />
The four character of this story are faced with multiple changes and one of these two teams who get finally the idea of change and deals with it successfully.<span id="more-405"></span><br />
This story makes you thinks why we had always thought that a change would lead to something worse, instead of thinking that it might lead to better and greater things than what we have now, it makes you realize that change could lead to something better and the quicker you let go of the old cheese, the sooner you find new cheese.<br />
Understanding the change would lead you to new believe which will be encouraging new behaviors, when you change what you believe, you change what you do, you can believe that a change will harm you and resist it. Or you can believe that finding New Cheese will help you and then embrace the change, and by noticing small changes early helps you adapt to the bigger changes that are to come.<br />
What will make you change? This is a very important question for you to ask to yourself, you will realize that you will start to change as soon as you have learned to laugh at yourself, your fears and at what you had been doing wrong. You will realize the fastest way to change is to laugh at your own folly &#8212; then you can let go and quickly move on.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I came today to give you a little tip that would be suitable for such season we are in, Holidays season.<br />
For sure I won&#8217;t be asking you to work hard or do double the effort you do normally but I&#8217;m asking you today my friends to just sit back and relax, look at the past year evaluate yourself and your performance if you feel good about what you have accomplished in this year that is about to leave us and actually it&#8217;s a whole decade that&#8217;s about to say good bye, then you deserve some time off to relax and recharge your battery for the next year to be more fruitful and rewarding with new goals and achievements.<br />
If this is not the case this should be the push for you and the motive you need to charge your energy battery and go after your goals and dreams with all the power you have giving you the chance to make this year is the first step in your journey toward success.</p>
<p>So my friends let&#8217;s say hello to the next year with more dreams for us to achieve, and good bye to the past decade with all what we have achieved and not and try to achieve these goals in this year and the more coming years.</p>
<p>With my best wishes for you and me with happier life and more achieved goals which will lead us to more successful life, feel free to tell me your hopes and dreams and what you wish for the next year.</p>
<p>Happy Holidays</p>

People who achieved great success in their life have been working hard enough to reach that success and they have faced so many problems and obstacles along that journey but what distinguish these people that they were optimistic about their success and at the end of their road they will reap what they saw.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Have you ever asked yourself why some people are very successful while others are not, the answer to this question is very simple.<br />
People who achieved great success in their life have been working hard enough to reach that success and they have faced so many problems and obstacles along that journey but what distinguish these people that they were optimistic about their success and at the end of their road they will reap what they saw.<br />
<a href="http://www.peoplesuccess.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/optimism.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-509" title="optimism" src="http://www.peoplesuccess.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/optimism-300x240.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="240" /></a><br />
<span id="more-392"></span><br />
These are the values and principles we need to have in order to achieve success, I don&#8217;t claim to be a good speaker about success but i observe the success of people around me and try hard enough to learn from these experiences and apply those elements in my journey to success and trying my best to transfer this knowledge and experience that I got to you my dear readers.<br />
The most important element to success my friends along with hard work , is optimism , believe you can&#8217;t achieve success as long as you see the world from the dirty window, from this we can see that Pessimism will be the 1st step you make for your failure.<br />
Let me tell you don&#8217;t expect to be born successful or achieve success without any effort; success could be only reached with being optimistic, devoted, loyal and hard working.<br />
In my next posts I&#8217;ll write to you my friends about how to be optimistic and the influence of this on your life, let me know what you think and if you liked this or not.</p>

<p>I truly missed you all and missed writing to you &amp; hearing from you, today I had a small idea at the back of my mind and I wanted to hear from you about and what do you think.</p>
<p>Why do we always wait for success and good things to happen to us and if they don&#8217;t we get frustrated and depressed, waiting is not going to take you any where my friend, you should have smart &amp; hard work as a success methodology that you will follow to achieve success in your life.<br />
<span id="more-369"></span></p>
<p>Making this methodology as a religion for you will lighten up your way for success and would open your eyes for the different paths that you can go through to achieve success, all you have to do is wake up in the morning deciding that you will  succeed in your day and achieve one goal you have in your mind even if it was a very small goal, this goal might be as small as deciding to work out in the gym even for one hour, as much as our goals may seem hard and far away as much as they are achievable and are easy to be reached once you have decided so.</p>
<p>At the end let me tell you my friends that i had the same problem like you in waiting for success and good things to come my way but it does not work that way that why I have decided to change that and never wait again and work so hard to achieve what I want in this life, and my motivation in this is that after the hard work there is a fruitful success waiting for me as well for you.</p>
<p>Never wait take an action now!</p>
