Tom Watson Sr. said, "If you want to succeed, double your failure rate."
THAT'S TRUE .
If you study history, you will find that all stories of success are also stories of great
failures. But people don't see the failures. They only see one side of the picture and they
say that person got lucky: "He must have been at the right place at the right time."
GUESS WHO ???
Let me share someone's life history with you.
This was a man who failed in business at the age of 21 ; was defeated in a legislative race at age 22; failed again in business at age 24; overcame the death of his sweetheart at age 26; had a nervous breakdown at
age 27;
lost a congressional race at age 34; lost a senatorial race at age 45; failed in an
effort to become vice-president at age 47; lost a senatorial race at age 49; and was
elected president of the United States at age 52.

.
This man was Abraham Lincoln.
YES .
Would you call him a failure? He could have quit. But to Lincoln, defeat was a detour and
not a dead end.
so , remember : " NEVER SAY NEVER " , and you will win .
stay inspired .

Abraham Lincoln was a great person he never gave up.
Because of his failures he is the most loved US president ever.
