GREAT MEN WHO NEVER GAVE UP

Abraham Lincoln went to war as a captain and returned home as a private. He failed countless times as a businessman. When he became a lawyer, he also failed as a result of being too temperamental. When he became a politician , he was defeated in several attempts before he became the president of the USA.
Sigmund Freud was also booed from the podium the first time he presented his ideas but he kept on writing.
The light inventor, Thomas Edison, was no exception.  His teachers condemned him to be" too stupid to learn." He was fired from jobs and even as an inventor, he made 1,000 attempts before he succeeded. He never saw himself as a failure but instead,  he said "the light bulb was an invention with 1,000 steps."
Walt Disney, was fired by his boss because" he was unimaginative". He went bankrupt a lot of times before he built Disneyland.
Everyone fails before he attains a particular status. Failure is part of success. Learn to fail and you will learn to succeed.
"Only those who dare to fail greatly can achieve greatly" - Robert F. Kennedy
