Thomas Edison Mistake Quotes
By Catherine Pulsifer
Imagine failing over and over again.
How would you feel?
Would you continue?
What would your attitude be?
How would you feel?
Would you continue?
What would your attitude be?
There is one person who failed many times, yet he went on to invent the light bulb. That person? Thomas Edison. The following quote answers all of the above questions: "Results! Why man, I have gotten a lot of results. I know several thousand things that won't work."
Many of us give up when we fail. We allow an attitude of defeat to take over. Over the years whenever I failed or made a mistake, I always thought of Thomas Edison, of his achievements but more so of his attitude. Read the following quotes and I think you will see a reflection of a man who had a positive attitude, a man who persevered and didn't let mistakes stop him.
"Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up." "Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time."
"Show me a thoroughly satisfied man and I will show you a failure."
"Just because something doesn't do what you planned it to do doesn't mean it's useless."
So the next time you make a mistake, or feel discouraged, read Mr. Edison's quotes and adopt his attitude on mistakes!
