    One day when he was at high school, he was asked to write a paper.It was about what he wanted to be and do when he grew up.He worked hard on it,and wrote a seven-page paper.In the paper he described his dream of owning a big horse ranch someday.

    The next day he handed it in to his teacher.Two days later he received his paper back.On the front page was a large red F(fail)with a note that read,“See me after class.”

    He went to see the teacher after class and asked,“Why did I receive an F?”

    The teacher answered.“This is an unrealistic dream for a young boy like you.You come from a poor family.You have no money.Owning a horse ranch needs a lot of money.You have to buy the land.There’s no way you could ever do it”Then he added,“Write this paper again.If you write it with a realistic plan,you may receive a better grade.”

    After sitting with it for a week,he turned in the same paper,making no changes at all.He said to the teacher,“You can keep the F and I’ll keep my dream.”

    Monty kept his dream and worked very hard.Today he owns a large horse ranch with a big house on it,and he keeps that school paper he wrote on the wall of his sitting room.
