American Dream

Arnold Schwarzeggner

Is an Austrian, who emigrate to America in 1968. He was a successful man known in Austria, Germany, Britain and others as Mr. Universe, but how he did it, a boy from small village, Thal? “I have a dream.” He said. “I dreamed all nights and days.” He hasn’t got a dream to be the most muscular man, but to be somebody, to be singled out. His model was Reg Parker, actor and body builder, and Arnold decided, if Reg is a body builder he would be too. After a few years he celebrated his first successes. He escaped from Thal to Munich and than to London. In these time he was the winner, somebody, but not for whole world. So he has a new dream, to go to America, country where your dreams come true, as he said. He was 21 years old when he landed in Miami airport and he wants to capture America in her own sport. But on the championate he was defeated by American sports man. “Never again.” He said, and this was the reason, why he stayed there, without any money, friends and knowledge of language. But he has a dream, and that’s it, American dream. Have no money, but have a dream, something what you want to reach, and achieve it. Take a chance and be good. Arnold took the chance, he visited the photographer from Montreal, who met on champion ship and than go to California. He was in better form than when he came and ready to do everything. It was maybe a luck, that his manager became his friend, but Arnold never take him like someone who can teach him, but like someone who gives him money. He was wise, self confident and bold, as write some American magazine. Acting in films starts his real career, first as a muscleman and the strongest one, like Hercules and after as an action hero, like we knows him now. Because of his good business mind and economic education he earn the money very quickly and he knows how to keep it and make more out of it. Once someone said, that he is typical Aries man, but he was and is the example of American success, master of his own destiny.
