Miracles Happen, and Dreams Do Come True
Ask the three friends who pooled $3000 to sell T-shirts — they’ve brought in over $250 million so far
Do you believe in miracles? Do we have the ability to generate miracles for ourselves?
Unwavering faith plus extraordinary effort equals miracles
This quote is about embracing your gifts while overcoming preconceived cognitive limitations. It’s about putting in the necessary work to fulfill your dreams and ambitions.
Ryan Bartlett, a failed musician, and a couple of friends pooled $3000 to launch True Classic, a men’s apparel brand. I have a closet full of their soft, comfortable, well-cut T-shirts. I’m wearing one now as I write.
Bartlett says confidence is key to his success. However, it was not all smooth sailing for the team of entrepreneurs. They nearly lost their proverbial shirts by over-purchasing and sitting on a huge inventory that shrank True Classic’s profit margin and almost put them out of business.
It took Bartlett and his co-founders, Nick Ventura and Matt Winnick, nearly two years to recover and get back on track. Today, they are positioned to compete with brand giants such as Nike and Ralph Lauren.
