Learn from Mistakes

Learn from Mistakes

Thomas Edison tried two thousand different materials to make the light bulb. When none worked satisfactorily, his assistant 31 ,“All our work is in vain. We have learned nothing.”

Thomas Edison replied very 32 ,“Oh, we have come a long way and we have 33 a lot. We now know that there are two thousand materials which we cannot 34 to make a good light bulb.”

If you learn from your mistakes, then you are 35 .If you learn from someone else’s mistakes, then you are a genius. Success is nothing more than a few simple disciplines 36 daily and failure is nothing more than a few small 37 repeated daily.

How 38 the above lines are! Success takes 39 .We’ll make mistakes 40 wedo things in too much of a hurry. When we do not practice disciplines in life, we don’t build enough confidence to 41 new and challenging tasks which are improtant and matter in life. Our confidence 42 what we think of ourselves and whether we believe in ourselves. We are all born with exceptional 43 , but only a few really 44 their true potentials and make efforts in life and the others just lead a(n) 45 life. Do you want to be exceptional?

Success is a fruit which everyone wants to 46 but it is not foud everywhere and noone can 47 it without serious efforts.

Those who want to succeed will find a way；those who don’t will find a(n) 48 ! Success depends upon previous 49 , and without it we will end in failure.

When you are 50 , please enjoy it and give your hand to others who want to accomplish something.
