Here's your success mentor Darren Hardy.

The only survivor of a shipwreck woke up on a beach of a small uninhabited island in the middle of the ocean.

Every day he circled the island, looking for ships on the horizon.

He obsessively searched the sky for planes, hoping for a rescue, but none ever came.

So he scrounzed around for materials to build a small hut

to protect himself from the sun and rain.

His daily schedule included scavenging and hunting for food.

He kept a small fire going so that he could cook whatever it is that he found.

One day after his walk around the island he returned to find his hut in flames.

A gust of wind had blown some embers from his fire that ignited the hut.

Black smoke billowed in the air.

He tried to douse the fire, but couldn't.

He collapsed, exhausted, and dejected. It was then that he lost all hope. But the next

day he woke to find a ship anchored right off the island. A life raft was headed his way. He would be rescued at last

when he reached the ship. He asked the captain, what made you stop here? I have

been looking for a ship for months and saw none. The captain replied,

oh we saw the smoke from the fire that you built. It led us right to you. You see, what seemed

hopeless is what saved him.

What he thought was bad was in fact good.

So what is going on in your life right now that maybe right now seems bad. I just want you to know that it might

actually end up being good. So start looking for that good starting right now.
