The Prince and The Talk Show Host - By: Koorosh Vahabi

It seems that everyone is looking for the “secret’ to success.

Well, let me tell you that there is no one single secret.

Success involves many different steps or “secrets”.

I am going to give you one of these secrets. It’s illustrated in this story. It is a true story.
I have not seen the show myself (since I don’t speak Arabic), but it is a very well known story in the Arab world.

Prince Talal bin Waleed was being interviewed on an Arab talk show.

If you don’t know who he is, Prince Talal bin Waleed is one of the richest men in the world. As of 2007, his net worth is estimated at US$20.3 billion and he is ranked by Forbes as the 13th richest person in the world, and the richest Arab.

Anyways….

The talk show host asks Prince Talal, “What is the secret to your success.”

Prince Talal doesn’t reply.

Instead he reaches into his pocket and takes out his cheque book. He writes a figure on the cheque and offers it to the talk show host.

The presenter takes a look at it and is stunned.

The cheque is for a whopping one Million dollars ($1,000,000).

“Here, take this,” says the prince.

To which the talk show hosts replies, “No, thank you.”

The audience is holding their breath. There is pin-drop silence as everyone in the studio is waiting to see what happens next.

“No really, take it. It’s yours. No strings attatched,” says the prince.

To which the talk show host replies again, “No, thank you.”

To this day, I have no idea what was going on through the host’s mind. Maybe he was being polite… Maybe he didn’t need a million dollars….

In any case, the prince asked him one last time: “Here, take this cheque for a $1,000,000. It’s yours to keep.”

And sure enough, the talk show host again said that he did not want it.

Prince Talal then takes the cheque, tears it up and proclaims:

“This is the secret to my success. I saw opportunities and I immediately took them. I received a chance to make money and I took action. You had a chance to do the same just now, by accepting the million dollars that I offered you, but you hesitated and did not take it. That’s the secret of my success.”

There you have it. This is one of the secrets of successful people. You have to take action once you get a money- making idea.

As Dr. Joe Vitale (from www.mrfire.com) likes to say, “Money likes speed.”

And he is absolutely right.
