Follow Your Dream
"The teacher said, `This is an unrealistic dream for a young boy like you. You have no money.
You come from an itinerant family. You have no resources. Owning a horse ranch requires a lot of
money. You have to buy the land. You have to pay for the original breeding stock and later you'll
have to pay large stud fees. There's no way you could ever do it.
?/p>
Then the teacher added, `If you
will rewrite this paper with a more realistic goal, I will reconsider your grade.
?/p>
"The boy went home and thought about it long and hard. He asked his father what he should
do. His father said, `Look, son, you have to make up your own mind on this. However, I think it is
a very important decision for you.
?/p>
"Finally, after sitting with it for a week, the boy turned in the same paper, making no changes
at all. He stated, `You can keep the F and I'll keep my dream.'"

this
story
because
you
are
sitting in my 4,000-square-foot house in the middle of my 200-acre horse ranch. I still have that
school paper framed over the fireplace." He added, "The best part of the story is that two summers

brought

out
on
my

for

week."
When
the
teacher was leaving, he said, `Look, Monty, I can tell you this now. When I was your teacher, I
was something of a dream stealer. During those years I stole a lot of kids

dreams. Fortunately
you had enough gumption not to give up on yours.
