teacher for not paying attention to his mathematics and for not being able to
solve simple problems. She told him that he would never achieve anything in
life.
Thomas Edison: When Thomas Edison invented the light bulb, he tried over
2000 experiments before he got to work. A young reporter asked him how he 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.”
Chester Carlson: He took his idea to 20 corporations in 1940’s. They all
turned him down. After seven long years of rejections, a tiny company in
Rochester agreed to purchase the rights for his invention – an electrostatic
paper copying process which developed into the Xerox machine.
Walt Disney : The pioneer of cartoons and animation was fired by a
newspaper editor because he had ‘no good ideas’.

hopeless”. This musician went on to compose some of the world’s finest music.
