    Obsessives, those who can not imagine doing anything else with their lives, always find their work more fulfilling than those who find themselves in a profession because it was expected of them or because they did not have a calling that tugged at their emotions, for people like Sir Alex Ferguson, who are obsessed by a pursuit, there is no separation between life and work … It is much easier to endure all the setbacks, reversals and frustrations of management when you deeply enjoy your work.

Chris Gardner passed the exam to become a broker, launched Chris Gardner career and became a multi-millionaire. When I asked Chris Gardner for the secret to success, Chris Gardner said.
