Career Inspired... DID YOU KNOW?

This week on career inspired... did you know that Tomas Alva Edison tried 10000 times to perfect the first incandescent light bulb?

Well, if you didn't... now you know.

A journalist asked him the question "How does it feel to have failed 10000 times?" and he replied...... (reply after quotes).... *suspense*  *wink*

The Mentor Himself! Tomas Alva Edison

These are some of my favorite quotes from him... want to share them with you for an inspiring week... 

so, lets check them out;

"Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when 

they gave up"

"Five percent of the people think;

 ten percent the people think they think;

and the other eighty-five percent would rather die than think;"

"Genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration"

"When you have exhausted all possibilities, remember this- you haven't"

"Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is to try just one more time"

"Vision without execution is hallucination"

         

               .... Yup! those are some of my favorite quotes by Tomas Edison... 

    

Oh yes! I didn't forget his reply, it was.... "I have not failed. I've just found 10000 ways that won't work"

         Can you beat that!... I leave you to marvel at his reply, enthusiasm and all....

              

                 Hope these inspire and give you the *Ginger* for your *Swag*, as Terry G, would say.

                 

                     and now, specially from me to you, Do have a successful week.
