Another mistake!

"Success in life consists of going from one mistake to the next without losing your enthusiasm." 

Thomas Edison’s teachers said he was "too stupid to learn anything." He was fired from his first two jobs. 

As an inventor, Edison made 1,000 unsuccessful attempts at inventing the light bulb. When a reporter asked, "How did it feel to fail 1,000 times?" Edison replied, "I didn’t fail 1,000 times.  The light bulb was an invention with 1,000 steps.

Now that is enthusiasm.  Successful people are those who never gave up.  

Michael Jordan and Bob Cousy were each cut from their high school basketball teams. Jordan once observed, "I've failed over and over again in my life. That is why I succeed."
