Positive Attitude:1 Example Of Why It Can Be So Beneficial To Us
February 24th, 2008 by aaks
Positive thinking is so important as it will affects all aspects of our life. What I am going to share with you will be 1 story example of why having a positive attitude is so beneficial to us.
Thomas Edison, the greatest inventor of all time failed around 10,000 times in his quest to invent a light bulb. He persisted till he found the solution. You will be surprised to know that this great inventor only has 3 months of formal schooling in his entire life. The another surprise thing is that he was a partially deaf 4 year old boy who returned one day from school with a note from his teacher. The note read, “Your Tommy is too stupid to learn, take him out from school”. His mother taught him at home since then.
So what is the thing that we can learn from this story? Personally I feel that the success story of every great man is full of disappointments, failures, setbacks, and betrayal. They face them with a smile as a great warrior success eventually comes to them. No struggle, no success. What is the thing that keeps him going and never gives up, it is his positive attitude.
The society is created in such a way that it is only when we make mistake then we will be able to learn something new. In order to reach our goal, we must first be able to overcome all the problem and the obstacles that come along our way. When you have a positive attitude, you will see every problem as a great opportunity to go forward. It is not easy in real life when we are being constantly bombarded by all the negative influence from our environment. That is when we have to make an effort to have a positive attitude and maintain it.
Whenever I feel like giving up, I will just remember the Thomas Edison story and I will get motivated again and have a positive attitude towards my task. Have a positive attitude today and go towards your dream.
