Oprah's career path shows that hard work, discipline, and taking calculated risks will carry you far--maybe farther than you'd ever imagine. Even Oprah's personal life holds many valuable lessons. Hers is a story of faith, of adapting and persevering, of continually learning, and of being aware of what is going on in the world and engaging with it to achieve positive results. Mostly, though, the story of Oprah Winfrey is a testament to what can happen when you take the time to listen to and care for others, while always remaining true to yourself.
