A list some super successful people who failed multiple times before they "got it right"


Oprah Winfrey - fired from her first television job.


Steven Spielberg -  Rejected by the Universal of Southern California School of Cinematic Arts multiple times


R.H. Macy - had a serious of failed retail ventures through his early career


Soichiro Honda - His unique vision got him ostracized by the Japanese business community. 


Colonel Harland David Sanders - He was fired from dozens of jobs before founding his fried chicken empire, Kentucky Fried Chicken.


Thomas Edision - His teachers told him he was "too stupid to learn anything". He went on to get fired from his first two jobs for not being suitably productive. He kept going and went on to hold 1000 patents and invented many World Changing devices. 


JK Rowling - She was a single mom living on welfare when she began writing Harry Potter. She became the first BILLIONAIRE author in 2004.


Theodor Seuss Geisel - better known as Dr.Seuss had his first book rejected by 27 different publishers. 


Henry Ford - ruined his reputation with a series of failed automobile businesses. Ford proved he had learned from his mistakes when Ford Motor Company forever changed the automotive industry and culture with his assembly line mode of production. 


Real success is not succeeding without failing... it is failing multiple times, refusing to give up, until finally becoming successful.


Thank you Rich, for not giving up.
