Failure is the stepping stone to Success!!

By on June 29, 2012 in ar, Attitude, Featured, Motivation
A small boy–the fifth amongst seven siblings of a poor father,
was selling newspapers in a small village to earn his living.
He was not exceptionally smart at school but was
fascinated by religion and rockets.
The first rocket he built crashed. A missile that he built crashed
multiple times and he was made a butt of ridicule.
He is the person to have scripted the Space Odyssey of India
single-handedly.
—————————–
When
Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone in 1876,
it did not ring off the hook with calls from potential backers.
After making a demonstration call, President Rutherford Hayes said,
“That’s an amazing invention, but who would ever want to see one of them?”
—————————–
When
Thomas Edison invented the light bulb,
he tried over 2000 experiments before he got it to work.
A young reporter asked him how it felt to fail so many times.
He said, “I never failed once. I invented the light bulb.
It just happened to be a 2000-step process”.
—————————–
In the 1940s, another young inventor named Chester Carlson
took his idea to 20 corporations, including some of the biggest in the country.
They all turned him down. In 1947, after 7 long years of rejections,
he finally got a tiny company in Rochester, NY, the Haloid Company,
to purchase the rights to his invention–an electrostatic paper-copying process.
Haloid became
Xerox Corporation.
—————————–
A little girl–the 20th of 22 children,
was born prematurely and her survival was doubtful. When she was 4 years old,
she contracted double pneumonia and scarlet fever,
which left her with a paralyzed left leg.
At age 9, she removed the metal leg brace she had been dependent on
and began to walk without it. By 13 she had developed a rhythmic walk,
which doctors said was a miracle. That same year she decided to become a runner.
She entered a race and came in last. For the next few years every
race she entered, she came in last.
Everyone told her to quit, but she kept on running.
One day she actually won a race.
And then another. From then on she won every race she entered.
Eventually this little girl–
Wilma Rudolph, went on to win three Olympic gold medals.
—————————–
A schoolteacher scolded a boy for not paying attention to
his mathematics and for not being able to solve simple problems.
She told him that you would not become anybody in life.
The boy was
Albert Einstein
—————————–
“To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did”

    All good teachers are not GOOD JUDGES, their failure in judgement is because all foolish students are not fools always.
