Ben Stein

    Židovsko-americký ekonomický a politický komentátor, spisovateľ, herec a právnik, preslávený monotónnym, no humorným hlasom. Po počiatočnom úspechu ako pisateľ prejavov pre amerických prezidentov sa neskôr presadil v zábavnom priemysle ako ocenený herec a zabávač. Jeho komentáre sa často zameriavajú na ekonomické, politické a spoločenské otázky, pričom ponúka aj finančné rady pre investorov. Pôsobí ako hlas, ktorý odráža intelektuálnu hĺbku a zároveň nenútený humor.

             How Successful People Win is a serious self-help book using as its central metaphor the life of the cowboy and his behavior as he leaves his bunkhouse. Based upon a lifetime of observation of the successful and how they got that way, Ben Stein suggests that you imitate the determination, inner mobility, activity, flexibility—and the refusal to indulge in self-pity—of the cowboy in order to get what you want out of life.        The idea is that if you never indulge in making excuses, refuse to let other people’s hangups get in your way, and move deliberately toward clearly thought-out goals, you will get where you want to go. Just as the cowboy refuses to allow himself to get sidetracked by trivia, so can you refuse to allow life’s inevitable challenges and distractions mar your own success and happiness. The choice is yours.
