The Rock’s life hasn’t always been as easy and glamorous as it might look now. Money always seemed to be an issue for the Johnsons. Dwayne's father was a professional wrestler, but that didn’t bring enough money, so the problems escalated to the point where the family was evicted. The Rock's mother tried to commit suicide. On top of that, his professional football aspirations ended after only two months.

Driven by the dream of never having to face financial issues again, The Rock started working on the other sport he already knew – wrestling. He trained hard, overcame depression struggles, and faced the fact the crowd booed him during every match. He continued until his name became famous in the wrestling world and the crowd fell in love with him.

After achieving everything he wanted in wrestling, The Rock started a career in the film industry as an action and comedy star. Last year, he finally received his own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Now, he might plan to run for President... This guy is just unstoppable!

Here are 20 The Rock quotes to motivate and bring out the best in you.dwayne-the-rock-johnson-quotes
