Never Loose Hope & Never Quit Trying

There is no replacement for hardwork.

Success = Hardwork + Opportunity.

Yesterday in a magazine, I came across three such personality who proved the above equation.I like to share with you all.

First Personality : Abraham Lincoln

Year -- Incident

1816 -- Family was forced out of home, and he had to work to support them
1818 -- His mother died
1831 -- Failed in business
1832 -- Lost election for legislature
1832 -- Lost his job
1832 -- Wanted to go to law school but couldn't get in
1833 -- Began a business and went bankrupt, spent next 17 years paying off the debt
1835 -- Sweetheart died
1836 -- Nervous breakdown
1838 -- Sought to become speaker of legislature and was defeated
1843 -- Defeated for Congress
1848 -- Defeated for re-election to Congress
1849 -- Rejected for job of land officer
1854 -- Defeated for US Senate
1856 -- Defeated for Vice President
1858 -- Defeated for US Senate
1860 -- Elected President of the United States

Second Personality : Bollywood actor Shammi Kapoor

He made the biggest comeback of all times in Indian cine history. His first 18 movies are big flop. No one was ready to give him a chance. Not even his famous brother 'Raj Kappor'. Finally he himself directed and produced his 19th movie and it was a big hit. After that it was no looking back for him. He became a matinee icon.

Third Personality : A V Meiyappan

His first 3 movies were big flops. He lost nearly 6 lakhs (Mind you, 6 lakhs was huge money then). He didn't lose heart. He took another movie 'Alli Arjuna' , which became a huge hit. Now his production is considered as the biggest in Asia.


Something to think about..........
So many failures were the real pillars of success!!
Never Loose Hope & Never Quit Trying.
Impossible is the word found in the dictionary of fools.
YOU WILL SUCCEED
And I say that even the word Impossible itself indicates (I`M POSSIBLE )
