Arnold Schwarzenegger is one of the greatest men in our generation. He’s one of the few men who draws attention from people in the fitness community, the acting community, and in politics. He was one of the greatest bodybuilders of all time. Then, he transformed himself into an actor, in which he became the pinnacle of an action hero and the highest paid actor during his generation. After his acting career was through, he decided to go into politics. Instead of starting out small, he came out slugging and went straight to running for governor of California. He won.

Basically, everything Arnold does becomes a success. Why? How did Arnold become so good at it? Well, it’s simple. He believed in himself and worked his butt off during the entire process. He was willing to outwork anyone at anything. To give you an example, when he came into acting, no one gave him a chance, stating that his acting skills were poor and he had too thick of an accent.
