Thomas Edison tried two thousand different materials in search of a filament for the light bulb. When none worked satisfactorily, his assistant complained, “All our work is in vain. We have learned nothing.”
Edison replied very confidently, “Oh, we have come a long way and we have learned a lot. We know that there are two thousand elements which we cannot use to make a good light bulb.”
It’s changed the lives of me and my friends :-):):):):):)
Really this is a wonderful example.. good tp read this.. we learn many things from the mistakes. Make the mistakes, but don’t do the same mistakes in life..
He is an idol for youths to achieve something in their life. Impressible story…..
Try to fail but don’t try to fail. It’s a great story.
Very true…
Only some of the people can accept things like him…….
Hmmn really good story.
It is the best for progress.
Mistake which means take the missed things to apply them in future to prevent the same
Love your stories … I am not a story person but I love these 😀
Nice story, really I always believe in hard work.
Yes, it is very important to learn from your mistakes. It happened to me, I was making the same mistake again and again and always got frustrated after committing that. My life became very miserable and for all that vulnerability, I was solely responsible.
But one day I got to realize that making this mistake will lead me to nowhere but to hell and committed myself not to repeat it again… and honestly I got rid of my problem.
This blog is very useful tool to learn life living style. Thanks.
That means he did not discover the light bulb he jst wanted to discover which elements should not be used for light bulb.
Super
Very Nice thought, those who learn from others mistake are far better than those who learn from his/her mistake. Never loose your confidence in adverse condition, because this thing make you stronger and stronger.
Great thinking…
It’s wonderful, I love all the stories, please let me repost it on my Fb, thanks a lot 🙂
Whenever we make mistake we’ll learn new things. It helps to improve your knowledge. Mistakes always teach you new lessons.
So make mistakes and learn more.
I do love mistakes, at least I know I will never repeat them. With every mistake, you experience new thing. I believe mistake is beautiful special, when a scientist makes a mistake, he invents new things.
Thanks a million, the smallest work that I can do is to express my feeling about this site.
We should learn from our mistakes. I learned to put every thing in order.
Cut your coat according to your length.
Don’t cross your limits.
Do good have good
Great morals! I have learnt much more things through these morals ….
But please keep it up I have read all the morals. I think that all these morals are almost about “mistake” so please write something about other life matter.
Thank you.
To have ‘cake’ from ‘mistake’ is something really great… hats off to this site..
I am very fond of this site.. 🙂
Life isn’t easy like that, so try and try. Be patient.
I love it and I am getting knowledge from this website :):):):)
It’s impressive, because we did anything that is simple or comples that helps to know something.
“something is better than nothing”
Goal is born from your imagination… journey towards it is your job…..
Wow nice
We should always know that mistakes have potential in them that make us learn.
We can make mistakes in anything but mistakes can make us to achieve in easy way in short time….it means to make success… it’ll inspire to the world.
Thomas replied very confiediently and that worker didn’t know anything…
I love it. Inspiring.
I’m tired of making mistakes and now I realise there maybe still time left to make things work. There will be a time in your life if you’re lucky to learn from the past and to change, to do things right and if it’s something you want to achieve, whatever it is…it will be so.
I love my school teacher, Mr. Mistake.
This is what we call POSITIVE THINKING. Awesome…superb… practice makes man perfect….
Really GREAT, though small story but conveys a strong and positive message. To err is human, but to learn from that mistake requires a lot of courage ………..
Really very inspiring… & it gives an unparalleled desire to win despite several failure in life as a whole…
I am deeply touched and encouraged.
Never lose hope.
From mistakes, we learn that so may value things which we are not aware of….an eye openers…….
This shows no gain without pain. TRY NOT TO LOSE YOUR HOPE. TRY.
Learn from the great inventor to never lose hope.
Oh it’s good to learn from your mistakes so u may not commit them again.
Try! try! Try! You will achieve what you want. From this story I have learnt to be positive and learned from our failures.
It’s wonderful making mistakes, become a good master.
Wonderful!!! It helps a lot.
Excellent…
I got the moral from this message is first to improve our self confidence towards the success…. that gives mistakes makes man perfect. Thank You.
The way how you recieve or accept is more important than thinking negatively.
I like this thing very interesting
We can learn many things from our mistakes…… Mistake is our teacher….
It is the steeping stone for our success.
Awesome !!
Mistake is the great Teacher, if we learn from our mistakes.
No one called it is a mistake even it’s 2000 tries which he took to identify whether these materials can work or not.
It is also the part of experiment which he did and which conclude that in future these are the wasteful resources.
just impossible is impossible!!!!!!
We all make mistakes no one is perfect its unavoidable, but as much as possible if we make mistakes try to learn everyone has the right to do that instead of having them as a burden to you learn from them, and move forward and see how much you improved from the lessons you learned from your mistakes.
Mistakes are important lesson in our life. One should have patience and tolerances to keep on trying despite failing several times in life……
It is very nice.
Positive thinking helps to taste the oasis in the mid desert.
Mistakes make us to know life better than we know before.
A man is known for his “character” not when he makes mistakes but when he “realizes” his mistakes.
All of us encounter mistakes in life. From it we become strong and better person because we learn, and struggle not to do it again…
It is very important in our day-to-day life. Mistakes make us learn new things.
Even though those have been happening in my life for one decade I have been receiving happily so far. Now I go with Thomas path.
It’s a very motivational story so we follow the path and make our life successful………
Good
This is a good msg to all of us.
Really very nice…
Mistake once is good but same mistake reapeated again is foolishness.
Really nice story forever……………
Great thought by great mind.
Brilliant explanation
Really GREAT, though small story but conveys a strong and positive message. To err is human, but to learn from that mistake requires a lot of courage ………..
AS LEARNING IS AN INTERACTIVE PROCESS ……..
Dr. Vijay Vyas (Ph.d -HR )
It is called positive thinking.
Learn from mistakes and do not do it again.
