Sylvester Stallone - Rocky, Persistence, Underdog Discipline

Sylvester Stallone belongs on Self Growth Videos because Rocky is not just a movie character. Stallone's own life is the lesson: write the role nobody will hand you, survive rejection without surrendering the vision, train the body, sharpen the craft, and keep standing up after the hit.
