10 Reasons Why Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson Is So Successful
Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson has reached greater success than most could ever imagine. Professional wrestling brought his charismatic style to millions of people and the wrestling world quickly adopted him as one of their most liked wrestlers. After dominating for years, Dwayne Johnson gained the attention of Hollywood producers, this allowed Dwayne to branch off and find success as an actor. However, there are many reasons why Dwayne rose to fame and high levels of success.
Read on for a look into how Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson has become so successful.
1. He Is Very Charismatic
When Dwayne is in public, he is very charismatic. He electrifies the room like no other person can. This has allowed him to appeal to many people. Everyone just wants to see what he will do next and this has been a major point of his success.
Without being charismatic, Dwayne Johnson may never have transitioned from minor fame to the mega success he is today.
2. He Possesses A Competitive Nature
Being competitive has been the driving force behind his success. Everything that he does, he puts his all into it whether it be wrestling or acting.
If people do not work hard, they do not achieve their dreams. This is something that separates him from everyone else. He wants to be the best at all times and will not settle for anything less.
3. He Is Very Entertaining
Personality has a lot to do with his success, especially in acting. Dwayne always finds a way to relate to his fans. Whether it be the “people’s eyebrow” or his radiant smile, he finds ways to make the audience more involved. He is the person everyone roots for simply because he is so likable.
4. He Has A Successful Family
Family connections have a lot to do with The Rock getting his start in wrestling. After his football career came to an end, he had help from his father who was a former wrestler. In fact, his grandfather, uncles and cousins were all wrestlers as well.
In essence, he joined the family business and learned what it takes to succeed from his father.
5. He Follows His Dreams
Everything in life has a purpose for Dwayne. No matter what his dreams were, becoming a wrestler, acting or football, he did extremely well because he wasn’t afraid to follow his dreams. Without the drive to succeed and be the best, he might not have excelled the way he has.
Dwayne Johnson followed his dreams, but more importantly, he did everything in his power to transform them into a reality.
6. He Works His Ass Off!
During his “Once in a Lifetime Documentary” on USA, The Rock recalled his football failures. He mentioned that it devastated him, but made him work harder when training to be a wrestler.
Dwayne recalls training for hours each day and contributes his hard working ethic to his success.
7. He Found a Mentor
Dwayne Johnson had a rough childhood and was arrested nine times by the time he was 17. He was headed down the wrong path and needed an immediate change. Luckily, his childhood football coach reached out to him and asked him to join football to stay out of trouble. His coach, a probation officer, started a football team to keep kids off of the streets and doing something productive.
8. He Learns From His Failures
When his football career ended and he hit rock bottom, Dwayne Johnson was forced to move back in with his parents. His life was in shambles, he spent 10 years training to be a football player before his dream ended. However, he attributes this to his success because hitting rock bottom made him realize that he has to work even harder to reach his dreams.
9. He Surrounds Himself With Great People
Deciding to be friends with good people changed his life dramatically. If he would have stayed with the same crowd, he might have been thrown in jail. He knew that certain aspects of his life had to change, so he cut out all of the bad people in his life. This allowed him to feed off of their success and grow as a person.
10. Dwayne Takes Risks
Taking risks has enabled Dwayne Johnson to venture from wrestling to acting. If he wasn’t successful in acting, he might have passed up his fame in wrestling. Since the sport is very unforgiving, time away could have resulted in him not being a fan favorite anymore. However, he took the risk and has become a very successful actor.
Dwayne Johnson should be an inspiration to everyone. The decisions he made in life are what ultimately led to his success. Oftentimes, his life took a turn for the worse and the end of his football career was a major turning point in his life. Instead of giving up, he dedicated himself to aiming high and becoming a wrestler. Shortly after, he became one of the most well known wrestlers of all time and is now on the road to be a highly acclaimed hollywood actor and role model for all who are willing to be the best that they can be.

Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson Picture Quote
Article By Joel Brown | Addicted2Success.com
I was sitting on the sofa, waves of emotions poured through my thoughts streaming downwards from my mind into my heart. They are the sensations that wrap the mind in a fog or steal up the heart into a ball of anxiety. I allowed somewhat of a sarcastic puff of air to exhale out of me, blankly staring forward looking at my dog laying on the floor and the pile of dishes in the sink. I laughed at myself. (more…)
It’s no secret that we all have far more potential than we could ever imagine. Well, it may be a secret for some. Why is it then, that so many people never get where they want to go in life? Why do so many lack simply being able to visualize what they want their life to look like? It’s because they’ve been held down. We all have things holding us back to some degree and often we’re completely unaware of many of these things. The great thing about being human is that we have the ability to control our circumstances and create change, which is exactly how to break free of the shackles holding you back. (more…)
A study conducted by Gettysburg College found that you spend one-third of your life at work. On average, a person will spend 90,000 hours at work over a lifetime.

Overtime work starts to take priority over family and before you realize it, your productivity, creativity, mental, and physical health starts to decline. Why does this happen? (more…)

Oh if only He Would turn his heart around and Actually Search for Jehovah Then would he find treasures more beautiful th anything he’s known. But Luke 8:4-15 tells us it’s what we choose once hearing Gods word. That determines if we get Real Life according to John 17:3.

pshaw k…uh…right…pretty judgemental of you to suppose he has no faith just because we are talking about a man’s success. Yet you need to find a way to align a conversation to your agenda. Absurd, and Pointless

Not absurd and not pointless and not saying he has no faith. Looks like the pot calling the kettle black regarding judgment However ur right about this being a bad idea. However I have no agenda. Just know enough about the bigger picture to be concerned for many.

You need to do more research about THE ROCK.. He is a firm Believer in Jesus Christ thats why he is so successful
Maria
Feb 17, 2013 at 9:01 am
He does know God and specifically, Jesus not Jehovah. He even posed on Twitter with a Jesus T-shirt. Such a shame, that people are quick to judge before checking their facts! Next, time do some research before assuming that people don’t know God or worship him…

Joyce, while I respect ALL beliefs and concepts regarding God, aka Jesus Christ aka the Holy Spirit aka The Bless Trinity…how do you know The Roc has not already done so? Duwayne is obviously being blessed for his perseverance and his positive attitude. No, I do not fully know Mr. Johnson’s background but why should that matter? The past is the past…Jesus does not care how many times we fall down, He, is only concerned about if we keep getting up and keep trying. My sister in Christ, if you want to quote scripture, let us discuss God privately, for if you know enough about scripture to quote, you should also know that in John 8:7 the meaning of casting the first stone right? Look, I would love to discuss scripture with you away from this page. For Christians can discuss scripture because when we speak of Jesus, he will be present. But this is not the right venue. This is a motivational page/website and it hopes to encourage, inspire and motivate others with a great a successful example as Dwayne “The Rock’ Johnson has displayed. Please sister, excuse me for saying so, but we are not to publicly chastise one another, correct each other yes, but your comments can be read as chastising. By the way, Dwayne admits to have 7$ in his pocket. Isn’t 7 a sacramental number? The Seven last words of Jesus on the cross? I love you sister, I love this newly discovered website, and I like Dwayne Johnson,…very inspiring. If I have offended you, this page or any other person who reads this, I am sorry. I am simply trying to defend an inspirational public figure. Thanks.
