The Ultimate Bunny-Hop: The Rise of the Playboy Empire
Hefner was now unemployed and had just $8,000 to create the magazine of his dreams. He used $75 to purchase the rights to the never-before published nude pictures of Marilyn Monroe, before she had become a star. Ignoring the legal risks, Hefner decided to feature the photos on the cover and in the centerfold of his first issue. Named Playboy after a sports car that was struggling to get into production at the time, Hefner was not optimistic about its success. “On the first issue we put out we left the date off [December 1953] so that, if it didn’t sell right away, it could stay on the news-stands until it did,” he recalls.

Newman’s Own Success: His Dual Career Takes Off
Success did not come immediately for the young actor struggling to stake his claim in Hollywood. After starring in a movie so bad that Newman himself took out a full-page ad in a newspaper to apologize to movie-goers, he returned home to his family in New York, where he again began acting on stage and television. He would go back and forth between New York and Hollywood, starring in various mediocre performances, until 1956, when at the age of 31, Newman finally got his big break.

A Role Model - I Think Not!
Representative Joe Wilson, Michael Jordan, Serena Williams, Rafael Nadal, Kayna West, what do all of these individuals have in common? If you thought - they are famous, you would be right, but not for how they have excelled in their daily life and occupation. They all have shown their true character from the rude and boorish behavior they exhibited in the past week. All these individuals have shown a lack of respect for others and for themselves.

Success Lessons from Serena’s Meltdown
As you go through life you will encounter many problems and setbacks. You need to react positively to the negative stuff and move forward toward your goals. Serena Williams lost in the semi finals to Kim Clijsters, who went on to win the championship. Serena not only lost, she lost in a bizarre manner that could have been avoided had she chosen to react positively to an unfair setback she encountered during the match. To use a term we seem to hear a lot these days, there is a “teachable moment” here. Successful people commit to taking personal responsibility for their lives and careers. Choosing to react positively to people and events is a good way to take responsibility for yourself.
