Duane "The Rock" Johnson was cut from pro football

His first aspiration was to be a professional football player.  He made the CFL (Canadian football team) Calgary Stampeders, played one game, and was cut.

He said it was the best thing that ever happened to him.

".... but one thing that a lot of people don’t know that I wanted to share with you guys is when I was 22 years old, I came to this city for the first time. I was playing in the Canadian Football League, playing my first pro football game. I was playing for the Calgary Stampeders. We were playing the BC Lions. I was so excited.

Two days later, I got cut (laughs). Dreams shattered, sent home with seven bucks in my pocket. I was like, ‘Wait no, I gotta play in the NFL eventually. Those are my big goals. That’s my dream.’ You realize that playing in the NFL was the best thing that never happened because it got me here.

You gotta realize we’re gonna get our ass kicked. We’re gonna get the (expletive) kicked out of us. You gotta get up. You gotta have faith that the one thing you wanted to happen oftentimes is the best thing that never happened, so have faith and just keep that in mind and keep lugging away.”

Much more to the story....
