Oprah Winfrey Oprah was fired from her first TV job. She was told: “You’re too emotional. You’re not fit for television.” By industry standards, that was a career failure. What the industry misread was this: - Her emotion was connection - Her empathy was authority - Her voice wasn’t broken — it was early Instead of changing herself to fit the system, she found (and later built) a system that fit her. The result: - 25-year talk show dominance - First Black female billionaire - Global cultural and spiritual influence Key Insight Every mistake, every flaw, every weakness… It’s a ripe opportunity to create a solution… to make an improvement… to become stronger!
