I do this particularly through analyzing the Power of Habits and the different personality traits that Forrest Gump has that propel him to success. Forrest Gump becomes succesful because he is incredibly effective at being focused and he doesn't get caught up in politics and other distractions. He just cares about helping others. He is an early investor in Apple, meets the president many times, becomes a succesful entrepreneur etc. SOCIAL MEDIA: // TWITTER: https://www.twitter.com/storytellervids // FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/storytellervideos/ // INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/storytellersyoutube/ Music licensed from Musicbed.
