Lately, I read about the “The Unbeatable Man” Matt Furey from Simple Truths.
It reminds me about “Mao’s Last Dancer” 李存信 Li Cunxin. Since that film, based on his autobiogaphy of the same title, is now having its debut in Australia (and in the United States?) and he was also elected as the Australian Father of The Year 2009, , I select him to analyse by using his birthdate. But before that, I’ll talk about him a bit about his background and achievements.
For those ballet lovers, they would no doubt know that Li has been one of the world’s best ballet dancers for 16 years. He came from a poor peasant family in China where putting food on the table was a challenge. His dedication, determination and hard working makes me think of Kevin Hogan , the world’ s body language expert.
His illiterate mother with no education gave him some of the best advice he ever had. Such as “Don’t look back, keep moving forward.”
From the age of 11, his training schedule at Madame Mao’s Beijing Dance Academy for seven years was six days a week, 5:30am to 9pm. His official website says, “The 7 years of harsh training regime at the Beijing Dance Academy taught him discipline, resilience, determination and perseverance.”
During his last two years as a ballet dancer, he would trained from 5 am – 8 am before started his day to work and study full-time to become a stockbroker. Being the only nread winner, he wants to earn enough money to support his own family of four in Australia, his parents and six brothers in China.
He is also a successful public speaker as well as a best selling author for his autobiography, “Mao’s Last Dancer”. He wrote it during evenings, weekends and holidays while having his full time job as a broker.
Reflecting on how he managed to write his book in English, Li said,”I lowered my head, just like every other challenge in my life, and kept working. Nothing is impossible in life as long as you are willing to put the hard work in.”
I’m sure Kevin Hogan wouldn’t agree more.
