    – Pg. 49-50. This shows that the Beatles worked hard to get to their height of fame. This helped me understand how important it is to work hard for what you do. Many individuals may have had the opportunity of growing up in a family or situation where everything is given to them and I am sure they have used such an opportunity to their advantage, who wouldn't, while others weren't as lucky. I, for example, was not lucky enough to have everything given to me but I did have family and friends who supported me.…
