DARING TO FAIL Posted by PEGASUS (VIP) Dec 8 2005 4:46PM DARING TO FAIL<br><br>Einstein was 4 years old before he could speak.<br><br>Isaac Newton did poorly in grade school and was considered 'unpromising.'<br><br>When Thomas Edison was a youngster, his teacher told him he was too stupid to learn anything. He was counseled to go into a field where he might succeed by virtue of his pleasant personality.<br><br>F.W. Woolworth got a job in a dry goods store when he was 21, but his boss would not permit him to wait on customers because he 'didn't have enough sense to close a sale.'<br><br>Michael Jordan was cut from his high school basketball team. <br> <br>A newspaper editor fired Walt Disney because he 'lacked imagination and had no original ideas.'<br><br>Winston Churchill failed the 6th grade and had to repeat it because he did not complete the tests that were required for promotion.<br><br>Babe Ruth struck out 1,300 times, a major league record.<br><br>What have you failed at? If you cant name something in under 10 seconds, the chances are pretty good that youve never really tried anything bold and adventurous.<br><br>Take a chance. Do something risky. Make the call. Send the letter. Try that thing youve never done before.<br><br>There is great reward for those who will take a bold step in the face of doubt, fear, or opposition.<br><br>Its the feeling of perseverance, of sticktuitiveness, or succeeding after fighting for so long.<br><br>Its a feeling reserved only for those who have failed . . . and then tried again!<br> |
