Discover What Not To Do To Achieve Your Goals

What a wonderful opportunity this gives me to start fresh
- Thomas A. Edison

-
Attitude is the key to getting through tough times and achieving eventual success. Certainly, no one knew this better than Thomas Edison in his pursuit to find the substance that would function effectively as a filament for his electric light. He tried nearly 10,000 times before he discovered the answer. And, to his credit, his outlook was that he was fortunate enough to find 10,000 ways that didn't work --- bringing him that much closer to a successful outcome. He definitely had the right attitude when it came to turning moments of "failure" into times of learning and advancing.
-
Unfortunately though, after Mr. Edison's discovery of the answer to his research, his Menlo Park laboratory went up in flames --- destroying all his records and work in progress. This man of vision and dedication to his dreams refused to see the setback as tragedy or failure. His response was, "What a wonderful opportunity this gives me to start fresh."
-
The lesson learned from this famous inventor was that no matter what the challenge or adversity, no matter whether we have little or no control over the circumstances thrust upon us, how we RESPOND to such experiences determines if our success is achievable. Obstacles are simply a part of the journey toward attaining a worthwhile goal, and how we overcome these challenges reveals our true determination and character.

In The Middle of Difficulty Lies Opportunity

Persistence
and Humor,
Key Elements toward Achievement

Was this guy an Einstein?
"Nothing would ever become of you," commented a high school teacher.
As a student, throughout his education, he cut classes, displayed lack of obedience, and was constantly joking.
He managed a 4.91 average out of 6 in his final university grades (considered almost average).
As a young man, he seriously struggled with job success and finances.
Early on, he published a few not especially impressive physics articles.

Yet, Albert Einstein became the most famous scientist of the 20th century, thanks to his groundbreaking theory of relativity --- which laid the foundation for much of modern physics theory. His work had profound impact on everything from quantum theory to nuclear power and the atom bomb. And, he won the Nobel Prize for his work on the photoelectric effect.

Turns out that this man who, in his earlier days, was viewed as less than impressive and struggled with serious difficulties in jobs, finances, and family matters, knew the meaning of persistence. And, calling upon his gift of humor throughout his life helped to maintain perspective.

These prolific words came from Albert Einstein:
"In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity."
"Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new."
"Know where to find the information and how to use it
-- that's the secret of success."
