How many times did Edison fail after Edison was a child?

When Edison was a child, he was very fond of asking questions, often asking strange questions that made people feel very annoying, whether it was his family or pedestrians on the road, he was the object of his questions, and if he was dissatisfied with the answers of adults, he would personally go to the experiment, for example, once Al saw the mother goose in the goose house hatching eggs, he asked his mother why the mother goose always sat there all day? Mom told him that the mother goose was hatching eggs, and Al thought that if the mother goose could, then I would too, and after a few days Mom and Dad found Al squatting in the wood room, not knowing what he was doing, and when the family found out that Al was hatching eggs, everyone laughed.

When Al was eight years old, he went to elementary school, but he only took three months of classes and dropped out, when Al was in class, his mother was often called to the school to talk to the teacher, this is because Al often asked some questions that the teacher thought was strange, the teacher thought he was an imbecile child, so his mother decided to teach Al herself, and was determined to teach Al to be a great genius, so Al began his self-study course, Al was taught very well by his mother, and later Al was also allowed, A laboratory could be set up in the basement, and in order to prevent others from messing with his experiments, Al also came up with a clever plan to put poison labels on the bottles of each experiment.

One morning when he was twelve, Al suddenly said to his mother, "Mom, I want to sell newspapers, okay?" Mom was shocked when she heard this, and Dad was very angry when she heard it, but after Al repeatedly asked his parents to agree, he happily ran to the railroad company, and also obtained permission to sell newspapers on the train, a hundred kilometers from Hugh Ferry Port to Detroit, after Al worked as a newsboy on the train for a few months, he opened two stores in Detroit, one of which sells magazines, and the other sells vegetables, fruits, cream, etc., and he also hired two teenagers to help watch the store, and agreed to share the dividends with them, Soon another train was added to the railway, and Al sent a newsboy to sell it with him, and the twelve-year-old newsboy already felt that he had become a young capitalist.

Edison was very smart as a child, and he kept thinking creatively!

When Edison experimented with the light bulb, he failed more than 8,000 times, but he did not give up, he said that failure is the mother of success, he said that although I failed 8,000 times, but I know that these 8,000 kinds of things can not be used as raw materials for light bulbs, I firmly believe that I will succeed, because failure is the mother of success

The founder of KFC is Colonel Sandoz, Colonel Sandoz is a retired soldier, after he was discharged from the army, he was penniless, and his monthly life could only be maintained by the first subsidy. Sandoz had a recipe for fried chicken, and he decided to recommend it to major food companies, but every company refused in the face of this ragged man. After 1,001 efforts, he was finally recognized by a food company.

In just one and a half years, he opened 300 chain stores and was liked by people. What made him successful? He didn't give up after failing again and again.

Why didn't he give up? Because he firmly believes that failure is the mother of success.

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 again from the first one 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 to begin 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 once again proves the philosophy of the town:

Failure is the mother of success".

Thomas Edison (1847-1931) was a famous American inventor. He worked almost ten hours a day for decades, and read 3 to 5 hours in the study at night. So, on the day of Edison's 79th birthday, he proudly said to people, I am already 135 years old.

He lived to be 84 years old and made as many as 1,100 inventions during his lifetime, the greatest of which was the invention of the phonograph and the automatic telegraph, experimenting with and improving the incandescent lamp and **. Edison began to study electric lighting in his early 20s, and for more than 10 years, he successively chose bamboo cotton, graphite, tantalum ......and so on thousands of different substances as filament materials for testing, often through the sky, once he and his assistants worked for 5 days and nights. In 1879 Edison used carbon filament as an incandescent filament and lit it for 40 hours.

Because the surface of the carbon filament is porous, brittle, and the strength is very low. It was soon replaced by tungsten wire. He was 84 years old.

Edison. He only attended elementary school for three months in his life, and his knowledge was acquired through his mother's teaching and self-study.

His success should be attributed to his mother's understanding and patient teaching of him since childhood, so that he was envious of the original destruction of the film.

The imbecile Edison grew up to become a world-famous "king of invention".

Edison was curious about many things from a young age, and he liked to experiment with them until he understood them.

That's the end of it.

When he grew up, he devoted himself to research and development according to his interests in this area.

Ming's work. He was in New Jersey.

A laboratory was established, and the electric light was invented in his lifetime

Telegraph, gramophone.

machine, movie machine,

Magnetic ore splitter,

There are more than 2,000 kinds of things in total, such as crushers.

Edison's strong is only the essence of research.

God has made a great contribution to the improvement of the way of life of mankind.
