Ladder of Success
Sing your failures as a hymn,
It ignites the hunger to succeed.
Only those who work on their flaws,
Stand firmly on their feet.

ReplyDeleteDid a similar post Oops I did it! Quoting from it:
As Winston Churchill said, “Success is the ability to go from one failure to another with no loss of enthusiasm.” Some People who were called failures
Beatles were turned down by a recording company saying “We don’t like their sound and guitar music is on the way out”
Beethoven was told by a music teacher “as a composer he is hopeless”
Walt Disney, the famous cartoonist of Mickey Mouse and others, was fired from a newspaper because he “lacked imagination and had no original ideas”
Book Chicken Soup for the Soul was rejected a total of 140 times. It now has 65 different titles and has sold over 80 million copies all over the world.
Albert Einstein wasn’t able to speak until he was almost 4 years old and his teachers said he would “never amount to much”
What I said in so many words..u managed to say in so few..very powerful!

ReplyDeleteA great thought Saru, failures are a part and parcel of our lives and the best part about them are the analysis sessions they bring on which makes us realize where we went wrong.
