A
When I was 14, I began an after-school job to work for a newspaper, The Houston Post. I was sent to some of the city‟s worst neighborhoods to sell newspapers door to door. Even though the work was very hard, I was thankful for it.
It was a challenge because people didn‟t like a stranger knocking on their doors, especially a kid trying to get them to buy something. Once a man closed his door in my face heavily and shouted, “I don‟t want any paper.” I forced myself to knock again and was able to tell him how great the paper was. I ended up selling him a subscription(订阅). I was soon among the top subscription sellers and, like other successful salesmen , was given responsibility(责任) for training newcomers.
Around this time I started playing the guitar. Before long I was playing in a band. When I turned 18, I tried to become a professional musician. I never lost sight of this dream. I‟m sure it came from what I learned from knocking on strangers‟ doors.
That experience helped me in many ways. Early in my music career I was locked in a legal dispute(纠纷) with a former manager. He pressured me to back off, but I refused.
Having all those doors closed in my face as a kid gave me the strength to stand up to this man. But this time there was one difference: I was the one saying no. And I won.
