题目内容:
I didn’t want to be a bodybuilding champion. I wanted to be the best bodybuilder of all time.
Deep, deep down ask yourself, “Who do you want to be?” Not what, but who. I’m talking about thinking it out for yourself, “What makes you happy?”
You have to think outside the box. That’s what I believe, after all. What’s the point of being on this Earth if all you want to be is to be liked and avoid trouble?
We have so many rules in life about everything. I say break the rules. Don’t break the law, but break the rules.
I remember that after I had finished with my bodybuilding career I wanted to act. I wanted to be a star in films. Everyone had the same thought that I couldn’t be done. They said, “Look at this body, you have this huge monstrous body, you’re overly developed.” They thought I wouldn’t fit into movies. But I didn’t listen to them. Those were their rules. I was completely certain that I could do it.
Then I got my big chance in Conan the Barbarian. That shows you should trust yourself no matter what anyone else thinks.
On that movie, the director said, “If we didn’t have Schwarzenegger, we would have to build one.” Then when I did The Terminator, I said, “I’ll be back…” One of the famous lines in movie history, all because of my crazy voice. It just shows that you should never listen to those who say you can’t do something.
Don’t be afraid to fail. In everything that I have tried, I’ve always been willing to fail. Don’t be afraid of making decisions. You can’t be frightened with the fear of failure or you will never push yourself. You can push because you believe in yourself and your imagination. You know it’s the right thing to do and success will come. Don’t be afraid to fail.
