1. Who Failed At FirstThe Celebration Of 1,400th Presentation By Sompong Yusoontorn
Successful People

2. The people on this list show that devastating failures are just another stop
on the road to success. They have experienced massive failure that could
have easily made them give-up. But they didn't and now they're the
monumental successes that they are remembered for, a good source of
encouragement when it feels like you will never make it to the top.

3. Winston Churchill failed the sixth grade. He was
defeated in every public office role he ran for.
“Then he became the British prime minister at the age of 62.”
“Success is stumbling
from failure to failure
with no loss of enthusiasm.”

4. Thomas Edison's teachers told him he was "too
stupid to learn anything."
“Edison also invented 1,000 light bulbs before creating one that worked.”
“Many of life's failures are
people who did not realize
how close they were to
success when they gave up.”

5. Harland David Sanders, the famous KFC "Colonel," couldn't sell
his chicken. More than 1,000 restaurants rejected him.
“But then one did, and today there are KFC restaurants bearing his image
all over the world.”
“One has to remember
that every failure can
be a stepping stone to
something better.”

6. R.H. Macy had a history failing
businesses, including a dud Macy's in
NYC.
“But Macy kept up the hard work and ended up with the biggest
department store in the world.”
“Be everywhere, do everything, and
never fail to astonish the customer.”

7. Steven Spielberg was rejected from his dream
school, the University of Southern California, three
times.
“He sought out an education somewhere else and dropped out to be a director.”
“All good ideas start as
bad ideas. That’s why
it takes so long.”

8. Charlie Chaplin's act was rejected by executives because
they thought it was too obscure for people to understand.
“But then they took a chance on Chaplin, who went on to become
America's first bona fide movie star.”
“Failure is unimportant.
It takes courage to make
a fool of yourself.”

9. Marilyn Monroe's first contract with Columbia Pictures expired
because they told her she wasn't pretty or talented enough to
be an actress.
“Monroe kept plugging away and is one of the most iconic actresses
and sex symbols of all time.”
“I believe that everything happens for a reason. Sometimes good
things fall apart so better things can fall together.”

10. Soichiro Honda was passed over for an engineering
job at Toyota and left unemployed.
“But then he began making motorcycles, started a business and became a billionaire.”
“Never let your failures go to
your heart or your successes
go to your head.”

11. Vera Wang failed to make the U.S. Olympic figure-skating
team. Then she became an editor at Vogue and was
passed over for the editor-in-chief position.
“She began designing wedding gowns at 40 and today is the premier
designer in the business, with a multi-billion dollar industry.”
“I had really all but given up
trying, but I did it because it
was a lifelong dream.”

12. Walt Disney was fired by a newspaper editor because
he "lacked imagination and had no good ideas."
“Several more of his businesses failed before the premiere of his movie Snow
White. Today, most childhoods wouldn't be the same without his ideas.”
“The difference in winning and
losing is most often not quitting.”

13. Albert Einstein didn't speak until age four and didn't
read until age seven. His teachers labeled him "slow"
and "mentally handicapped."
“But Einstein just had a different way of thinking. He later won the
Nobel prize in physics.”
“A person who never made
a mistake never tried
anything new.”

14. Charles Darwin was considered an average student.
He gave up on a career in medicine and was going to
school to become a parson.
“But as Darwin studied nature, he found his calling.”
“It is not the strongest or the
most intelligent who will
survive but those who can
best manage change.”

15. Sir Isaac Newton was tasked with running the
family farm but was a miserable failure.
“Newton was sent off to Cambridge University and became a physics scholar.”
“If I have seen further than
others, it is by standing upon
the shoulders of giants.”

16. Dick Cheney flunked out of Yale twice.
“George W. Bush once joked: "So now we know –if you graduate from Yale, you become
president. If you drop out, you get to be vice president."
“No matter what kind of
problem I've run
into, there's always been
a solution for it.”

17. The first time Jerry Seinfeld went
onstage, he was booed away by the jeering
crowd.
“Eventually, he became a famous comic with one of the most-loved sitcoms ever.”
“To me, if life boils down
to one thing, it's movement.
To live is to keep moving.”

18. In Fred Astaire's first screen test, the judges wrote:
"Can't act. Can't sing. Slightly bald. Can dance a little."
“Astaire went on to be the most famous dancer of all time and won the
hearts of American women forever.”
“The higher up you go, the more mistakes you are allowed. Right at the
top, if you make enough of them, it's considered to be your style.”

19. After Sidney Poitier's first audition, the casting director
instructed him to just stop wasting everyone's time and
"go be a dishwasher or something."
“He went on to win an Academy Award and is admired by actors everywhere.”
“I have always been a learner
because I knew nothing.”

20. Oprah Winfrey was fired from her television reporting job
because they told her she wasn't fit to be on screen.
“But Winfrey rebounded and became the undisputed queen of television talk
shows. She's also a billionaire.”
"I don't believe in failure. It is not
failure if you enjoyed the process."

21. Lucille Ball spent many years on the B-list and
her agent told her to pursue a new career.
“Then she got her big break on I Love Lucy.”
"I’d rather regret the
things I’ve done than
regret the things I
haven’t done.”

22. After his first film, Harrison Ford underwhelmed the producer
and was told he would probably never succeed.
“But today Ford is the third highest-grossing actor of all time.”
“We all have big changes in our lives that
are more or less a second chance.”

23. Vincent Van Gogh only sold one painting in his entire
life, to a friend.
“He sometimes starved in order to create the 800 paintings he'd
eventually do. Today, his works are priceless.”
“As we advance in life it becomes more and more difficult, but in fighting
the difficulties the inmost strength of the heart is developed.”

24. Dr. Seuss' first book was rejected by 27 different
publishers.
“He's now the most popular children's book author ever.”
“You can get help from
teachers, but you are
going to have to learn
a lot by yourself, sitting
alone in a room.”

25. Henry Ford's first auto company went out of
business.
“He abandoned a second because of a fight and a third went downhill because of declining
sales. He went on to become one of the greatest American entrepreneurs ever.”
"Failure is simply the opportunity to begin
again, this time more intelligently."

26. While developing his vacuum, Sir James Dyson went through
5,126 failed prototypes and his savings over 15 years.
“But the 5,127th prototype worked and now the Dyson brand is the best-
selling vacuum cleaner in the United States.”
“Enjoy failure and learn
from it. You can never
learn from success.”

27. J.K. Rowling was unemployed, divorced and raising a daughter
on social security while writing the first Harry Potter novel.
“J.K. Rowling is now internationally renowned for her 7 book Harry Potter
series and is the first person to become a billionaire from writing.”
“It is impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live so cautiously
that you might as well not have lived at all - in which case, you fail by default.”

28. Stephen King was initially so frustrated with his
first novel, Carrie that he threw it in the trash.
“King's wife found the manuscript in the trash and took it out. To date
his 49 novels have sold 350 million copies.”
“Optimism is a perfectly legitimate response to failure.”
