How many times did Edison fail, and how many times did Edison fail in his life?

99 times, and the last time he finally succeeded.

Edison. Once, a man reminded Edison that when he invented the battery, he failed 25,000 times, but the great inventor said: "No, I didn't fail, I found 24,999 reasons why batteries didn't work."

During his lifetime, Edison obtained a total of 1,093 patents for his patents, such as gramophones, motion pictures, electric pens, wax paper and fluorescent lamps, etc. We can imagine how many failures he has experienced in his extraordinary career. We should be glad that he has the spirit of refusing to accept defeat and persevering.

2.He was denied 1,849 times.

In the United States, there is a poor young man, even when all the money on his body is not enough to buy a decent suit, he still wholeheartedly sticks to his dream, he wants to be an actor, make movies, and be a star.

At the time, there were 500 studios in Hollywood, and he knew all too well. According to the route he carefully drew and the order of the list, he went to visit them one by one with a script tailored for himself. But after the first time, none of the 500 studios were willing to hire him.

In the face of 100% rejection, the young man did not lose heart, and after coming out of the last rejected film company, he started from the first spine and continued his second round of visits and self-referrals.

In the second round of visits, 500 families rejected him.

The results of the third round of visits are still the same as those of the second round. The young man gritted his teeth and began his fourth round of visits, and when he finished visiting the 349th studio, the owner of the 350th film company promised to let him leave the script and read it first.

A few days later, the young man was notified and asked to come and discuss in detail. It was during this negotiation that the company decided to invest in the film and asked the young man to be the lead actor in the script it had written. The movie is called "Rocky".

The young man's name was Stallone. Now turning the page of film history, this movie called "Rocky" and this superstar who will become popular all over the world are on the list.

In the face of a total of 1,849 encounters, Stallone did not back down, continued to persevere, and finally succeeded in the 1850th time. His example reaffirms the philosophy that "failure is the mother of success".

Failure is the mother of success", you will not be unfamiliar with this sentence. Edison began experimenting with the material as a medium-skin filament, and with great perseverance and patience, he experimented with more than 1,600 materials, using carbon bars, platinum wire, and ruthenium, chromium and other metals as filaments, all of which ended in failure. In the face of failure, in the face of some people's cynicism, Edison did not back down.

After 13 months of hard work, Edison tried more than 6,000 kinds of materials, tested more than 7,000 times, and finally found that cotton thread could be used as a filament, and the filament was burned out after 45 hours. This is the first electric light with practical value in mankind. Success without paying a price cannot exist, you must have courage if you want to achieve results, and this courage is the courage to face failure calmly.

No matter what kind of failure comes to success. As long as you are able to get back up immediately after a fall, the lessons learned from the fall will become a beneficial experience that will help you achieve future success. I'm Li Ruonan....Shi Pei suspects....
