               A Wild Ride to Success

It was the saddest day of my life. As I arrived at work after a rare
long weekend spent hiking and laughing in the mountains with my
kids, I saw two enormous security guards hunched over the
mahogany desk in my coveted corner office. Running closer, I
could see that they were rifling through my files and peeking into
the precious documents on my laptop computer, oblivious to the
fact that I had spotted them. Finally, one of them noticed me
standing there, my face flushed with anger, my hands shaking at
the sight of this unforgivable invasion. With an expression that
revealed not a hint of emotion, he looked at me and spoke fifteen
words that left me feeling as if I’d just been kicked in the chest,
“Mr. Franklin, you have been fired. We must escort you out of the
building immediately.”
With that simple dispatch, I went from being the senior vice-
president of the fastest-growing software company on the conti-
nent to a man without a future. And believe me, I took my
dismissal very hard. Failure was a foreign concept to me, an expe-
rience I had no idea how to manage. In college, I’d been a golden
boy, the kid with the perfect grades, the beautiful girls and the boundless future.
