(A) In The Psychology of Achievement, Brian Tracy writes about four millionaires who made their fortunes by age thirty-five. They were involved in an average of seventeen business before finding the one that took them to the top. They kept trying and changing until they found something that worked for them. That's important in every walk of life, not just in business. For example, if you're a fan of track and field events, you have undoubtedly enjoyed watching athletes compete in the high jump.
(B) Developing a new high-jump technique was one thing. Getting it accepted by others was another. As new ideas are often perceived to be uncomfortable and threatening, (a)his revolutionary high-jump skill provoked a negative reaction. Fosbury remarked, "I was told over and over again that I would never be successful, that I was not going to be competitive, and (b)the method was simply not going to work. All I could do was shrug and say, "We'll just have to see."
(C) And people did see. Dick Fosbury won the gold medal in the Mexico City Olympics in 1968, shattering the previous Olympic record and setting a new world record in the process. Since then, nearly all world-class high jumpers have used (c)the flop. To achieve his goals, Fosbury tried and tested a different approach to high jumping, and he didn't allow other's comments to make him feel like a failure.
(D) What's really interesting is that in the 1960s, the sport went through a major change in technique that allowed athletes to break the old records and push them up to new levels. The person responsible for that change was Dick Fosbury. Where previous athletes used (d)the straddle method to high jump, in which they over the bar while facing it, with one arm and one leg leading, Fosbury developed a technique where he went over headfirst, with his back to the bar. (e)The technique was dubbed the Fosbury Flop.
