About this ebook
This book is written to serve as a simple motivational tool to help, encourage and inspire those with dreams and aspirations of achieving personal goals to keep trying, even though reaching their goals may appear to be as difficult or impossible task. Hopefully, the book will serve to show that one should never doubt and never give up. But instead, keep on trying and keep on believing that the desired, if given enough effort, is attainable and will eventually reached. We hope that the short stories and simple illustration within this book will serve to illustrate that characters in these well known stories did not allow the difficulties or obstacles they faced to deter nor discourage them from their efforts to achieve their goals..

You Gotta Try! - John Lane, Sr
Preface
It is hoped that this book will serve as a motivational tool for readers. That it will serve as a reminder that it is always of greatest importance to keep focused, remain confident, diligent and try never to entertain self doubt and negative comments from other people. The somewhat well known stories included in this book demonstrate how following these rules account for the success of the characters in these stories. Without fail, this also holds true for all who have or will have goals they wish to reach. Remember the old adage; nothing ventured, Nothing gained!
Some license was taken in writing this book. The stories are told with obvious alterations and a bit of humor in effort to flavor the telling for added interest. It is hoped that these alterations do not lessen the accuracy or the importance of the original telling of these stories. The author had to try!
Many never achieve their dreams. Here’s one reason why! Time and hard work they’re just not willing to apply. It’s true; we may not succeed every time we try, but there is one thing none can deny. You are never gonna succeed at anything if you don’t try! You gotta try!
