A few years back, Ford decided to produce his now famous V-8 motor. He chose to build an engine with the entire eight cylinders cast in one block, and instructed his engineers to produce a design for the engine.The design was placed on paper, but the engineers agreed, to a man, that it was simply impossible to cast an eight-cylinder gas engine block in one piece.

It’s all about determination

Millions of people look at the achievements of [world-changing automaker] Henry Ford, after he has arrived, and envy him, because of his good fortune, or luck, or genius, or whatever it is that they credit for Ford’s fortune.

The secret of success

At the end of the year, Ford checked with his engineers, and again they informed him they had found no way to carry out his orders. Go right ahead,” said Ford, “I want it, and I’ll have it.” They went ahead, and then, as if by a stroke of magic, the secret was discovered.The Ford determination had won once more!

To have what you want

Perhaps one person in every hundred thousand knows the secret of Ford’s success, and those who do know are too modest, or too reluctant, to speak of it, because of its simplicity. A single transaction will illustrate the “secret” perfectly.

Ford said, “Produce it anyway.”“But,” they replied, “it’s impossible!”“Go ahead,” Ford commanded, “and stay on the job until you succeed no matter how much time is required.”The engineers went ahead. There was nothing else for them to do, if they were to remain on the Ford staff.Six months went by, nothing happened. Another six months passed, and still nothing happened. The engineers tried every conceivable plan to carry out the orders, but the thing seemed out of the question; “Impossible!”
