I am a HUGE Andy Warhol fan for many years now.
When Andy Warhol was growing up in Pittsburgh his family was broke, they didn't even have an indoor toilet. Since Heinz ketchup was one of the major employers in the area at that time, Andy's family dinner usually consisted of soup made by adding water to Heinz ketchup.
Success is a journey, it does not just happen in an instant. Lots of adversity may find you along the way but a strong person will stay focused and always keep moving forward.

So true. No one sees the hard work that all the greats have put in. No one thinks about how many times they had to fail in order to finally get that method that would bring continued success.
Every one is looking for that get rich quick method, that quick fix.
This is a good reminder that success "often" takes some amount of dedication, practice and effort.
Thanks for sharing!
