FAILURE TO SUCCESS: So you have tried something and you have failed; Maybe numerous times. You may have been told you have no talent, arent cut out for this business or are never going to make it in this line of work. Well dont be discouraged. The following are stories of other people who were told the same thing or something similar and went on to be major successes! You might just recognize a few: The Vice President of Columbia told this actor that he was never going to make it in the business. The actor? - Harrison Ford His first book was rejected by 12 publishing houses and sixteen agents. - John Grisham Turned down by a recording company saying We dont like their sound and guitar music is on the way out They were talking about the Beatles Was told by his father that he would amount to nothing and be a disgrace to himself and his family - Charles Darwin Told by a music teacher as a composer he is hopeless - Beethoven Was told that he couldnt sing at all Enrico Caruso Fired from a newspaper because he lacked imagination and had no original ideas - Walt Disney Were told by Publishers that anthologies didnt sell and the book was too positive Rejected a total of 140 times. The book? Chicken Soup for the Soul. It now has 65 different titles and has sold over 80 million copies all over the world. Told by a teacher he was too stupid to learn anything Thomas Edison Failed the sixth grade - Winston Churchill Wasnt able to speak until he was almost 4 years old and his teachers said he would never amount to much - Albert Einstein Did poorly in school and failed at running the family farm - Isaac Newton Was not allowed to wait on customers in the store he worked in because he didnt have enough sense - F.

One thing you should know is that you only lose when you give up...... Thats when you actually failed! No human pronouncements on you is ever true! God is the ultimate and has given you to power to rule your world! Would you rather choose failure by making humans your god? I dont think so! Good Morning and have an amazing new week!
