How Thomas Edison mother’s Letter turned him into Genius
“If you learn from your mistakes then you are intelligent. But if you learn from someone’s mistakes, then you are a Genius.
One day, as a little boy, Thomas Edison got back home from school and gave paper to his mom. He said to her, Mother my teacher gave this paper to me and revealed to me just you are to peruse it. What does it say?Her eyes filled with tears, she read the letter anyone can hear about her boy.
“Your son is a Genius. This school is not the right place for him, and there are no efficient teachers to train him. So, please train him yourself.”
Edison went to School only for 3 months. It was turning point for him because, he explored many things and developed interest in physics and mathematics.
Many years later after Edison’s mother passed away, Thomas Alva Edison had become one of the Greatest inventors of the Century. One day, he was checking his cupboard and found a letter, and it was that his childhood teacher wrote to his mother that day. Edison opened the letter.
The matter written in the letter was, ” School cannot allow your son to attend classes anymore, he is mentally impaired. He is rusticated.”
Edison became emotional reading it and then wrote in his diary…
“Thomas A.Edison was a mentally deficient child, whose mother turned him into The Genius of the century.”
A positive word of Encouragement can help change anyone’s destiny.
How Thomas Edison made Failures, Steps for his Success
On 10th December 1914, there was a massive explosion in West Orange, New Jersey, USA. The legendary inventor who owned 10 buildings in a factory was engulfed by flames. Six to eight fire departments rushed to the scene but, could not curb the chemical inferno. After having tried all that he could, Edison calmly stood there watching the fire destroy, his entire life’s hard work.
His 24 year old son Charles came over and stood next to him. In a child like voice, Edison said to his son “Charlie, go and get your mother and friends. They will never be able to see a spectacular fire like this in their entire life. Astonished and shocked by his father’s response, Charles asked Edison, Our entire factory is being burnt down to ashes dad.” Thomas Edison replied with complete composure “Yes, Our factory is being burnt down to ashes, all the mistakes we have made so far in the factory also are burnt down to ashes too. We will start all over again, tomorrow.”
That night, Edison told a New York Time correspondent “In spite of the fact that I am 67 years of age, I am totally extremely tired of circling and endeavoring to control the fire. Tomorrow, I’ll start from the very beginning again once again. Thus he did. The following day was a crisp start for Edison and his child charles, in attempting to modify what had been pulverized by the fire.
