Paint the Windows Black

Sylvester Stallone's journey of creating 'Rocky' showcases the importance of resilience and self-belief. Rejected for roles due to his voice, he decided to write his own screenplay. Despite hating writing, he secluded himself & painted his windows black to intensify his focus. In just three days, he completed the script, despite receiving low offers for it.
