Edison once, a man reminded Edison that he failed 25,000 times when he invented the storage battery, but the great inventor replied, "No, I didn't fail. I found the reason why 24,999 kinds of batteries didn't work. " Edison obtained 1093 patents for inventions, such as phonograph, film, electric pen, waxed paper and fluorescent lamp. We can imagine how many failures he experienced in his extraordinary career. We should be glad that he has the indomitable spirit of refusing to accept failure. 2. Rejected 1849 times. In America, there was a poor young man. Even when all the money on him is not enough to buy a decent suit, he still sticks to his dream wholeheartedly. He wants to be an actor, make a movie and become a star. At that time, there were 500 film companies in Hollywood, and he knew it too well. According to his carefully drawn route and arranged list order, he visited one by one with scripts tailored for himself. But for the first time, none of the 500 film companies wanted to hire him. Faced with 100% rejection, the young man didn't lose heart. After coming out of the last rejected film company, he resumed his second visit and self-recommendation from the first one. In the second visit, he was still rejected by 500 families. The results of the third round of visits remain the same as those of the second round. The young man gritted his teeth and began his fourth visit. After visiting house 349, the boss of film company 350 promised to let him leave the script for the first time. A few days later, I informed the young man and asked him to discuss it in detail. It was in this discussion that the company decided to invest in filming and let the young man play the leading role in his script. The film is called Rocky. The young man's name is Stallone. Now let's look at the history of movies. The movie Rocky and the superstar who will be popular all over the world are on the list. Stallone didn't back down before hitting the wall at 1849, kept on insisting and finally succeeded at 1850. His example proves philosophy again: "Failure is the mother of success". There is a story about a pedestrian who fell down because of the uneven road surface. He got up, didn't walk a few steps and accidentally fell down, so he lay on the ground and couldn't get up. Someone asked him, "Why don't you get up and keep walking?" The man said, "since I will fall when I get up, why should I get up?" I might as well lie down like this so that I won't fall down again. " Such a person, you must think he is a ridiculous person, because he is afraid of falling, so he dare not get up and walk, so he will never reach his destination. You must have seen a toy called "tumbler". The center of gravity of the "tumbler" is below, so no matter how you push and poke, as long as you let go, it will stand up again immediately, so it will never get down. Life is like this. People can become stronger because of constant suffering. You have learned far more from failure than from successful experience. There are many reasons for failure. Han Feizi in the Spring and Autumn Period once said, "People who are not overwhelmed by mountains may trip over stones." If there are some bad factors in your personality, such as arrogance and complacency, then you should try to change it, because this personality factor is the direct cause of failure, and the failure caused by this factor will make you suffer heavy losses. To be sure, no one likes failure. Because, failure is mostly some painful experiences, even those that make your life suffer great losses. However, no matter who has a smooth life and has never tasted failure, it is estimated that there is no such thing. No matter how great and ordinary you are, as long as you are a person and follow your life step by step, then you have experienced failure more or less, but the severity is different. Of course, you don't have to admit this. You can say that you have never failed, because your life is very smooth, without any blow or failure. Then, I can also believe what you said, you are successful. But I want to tell you that if you really haven't experienced failure, then I can definitely say that your life is meaningless and your so-called success is an illusion, because life without failure is boring, meaningless and even impossible. It is true that most people almost deny failure, and some people even turn pale when it comes to failure. In fact, failure is not shameful. What is really shameful is those who don't admit their failure. Because on the journey of life, failure is normal and failure is abnormal. What matters is your attitude towards failure and whether you can turn it into victory. If you are devastated by a temporary failure, then I can say that it is not failure that defeats you, but your failed heart that defeats yourself. "Failure is the mother of success!" This sentence is not unfamiliar to you. All people who are eager for success must be ready to meet failure at any time. Success without paying the price is impossible. If you want to achieve something, you have to pay courage, which is the courage to face failure calmly. You should know that failure is a very important wealth for a person, and how to cherish this failed wealth will become a prerequisite for you to decide your future. Failure is a test of money and time. If you can't make full use of this test agent, then you can't be a winner. No matter what kind of failure, as long as you can get up immediately after falling, the lessons of falling will become useful experiences and help you achieve future success. Therefore, being unwilling to face failure is as undesirable as being unwilling to admit failure. The biggest failure in life is never failing and not daring to fail. In fact, if you can take failure as one of the compulsory courses in life, you will find that almost all failure experiences will bring you some unexpected benefits. Taking failure as the basis of success in life is your best choice.

Kepler, a German astronomer, was troubled since he was a child. He came to the earth early in his mother's womb for only seven months. Later, smallpox made him grow acne pits, and scarlet fever damaged his eyes. However, with his tenacious character, he studied hard and his academic performance was far ahead of his peers. Later, because my father was in debt and lost the opportunity to study, I taught myself astronomy. In his later life, he experienced a series of blows, such as illness, the death of his mentor and the death of his wife. But he still didn't stop studying astronomy, and finally discovered the three laws of celestial bodies at the age of 59. He turned all his misfortunes into the driving force to push himself forward, won the laurel of science with amazing perseverance and became the "winner of the sky". Barene Barene, who overcame failure and disability, was disabled by illness when he was a child. Her mother's heart ached, but she still fought back her grief. She thinks that what children need most now is encouragement and help, not mother's tears. Mother came to Barone's sickbed, took his hand and said, "Son, mother believes that you are an ambitious person. I hope you can bravely walk on the road of life with your own legs! Good Barene, can you promise your mother? " Mother's words hit Barene's heart like a hammer. He threw himself into his mother's arms and burst into tears. Since then, whenever my mother is free, she will practice walking and doing gymnastics for Barene, and she is often so tired that she sweats. Once my mother caught a bad cold. She felt that a mother should not only teach by example, but also set an example. Despite her high fever, she got out of bed as planned to help Barene practice walking. Soybean-like sweat dripped from her mother's face. She wiped with a dry towel, gritted her teeth, and helped Barene finish the exercise plan for the day. Physical exercise makes up for the inconvenience caused by disability to Barene. His mother's example deeply educated Barone, and he finally withstood the severe blow of fate. He studies hard and his academic performance has always been among the best in his class. Finally, he was admitted to the Medical College of Vienna University with excellent results. After graduating from college, Barene devoted all her energy to the research of otology. Finally, I finally got on the podium of the Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine. When Edison invented the electric lamp, in order to find a suitable material for filament, he and his assistant tried 1000 kinds of materials repeatedly, but all ended in failure. His assistant was very depressed and wanted to give up the project. He said to Edison, "Sir, we have failed more than a thousand times. It seems hopeless. " But Edison smiled: "No, I don't think it's a failure. On the contrary, we have successfully discovered more than 1000 materials that are not suitable for filament. " Even if we didn't invent the electric light, future generations can be inspired by our exploration, avoid taking thousands of detours and finally invent the electric light. "Later, Edison and his assistants finally invented the electric light after more than a year of hard work.

For repeated failures, Edison can not only face them positively, but also patiently explain to his assistant the dialectical relationship between failure and success, that is, success breeds failure, which is a process from quantity to quality. This inspired him and his assistants to work harder and finally succeed.

Success and failure go hand in hand, just like twins When you succeed, there is a crisis of failure; When you fail, you also have hope of success. Frustration is a pool of muddy water. A strong person falls, gets up, shakes off the mud and doesn't take a drop of water with him. Setbacks are a dangerous bridge. I walked firmly, without any expression of fear, and firmly embarked on the road to success.
