Famous Failures Posters

Famous failures are individuals who faced numerous setbacks and obstacles before achieving success in their respective fields. Some examples of famous failures include:

1. Thomas Edison: Edison is known for inventing the light bulb, but he failed thousands of times before finally achieving success. He once famously said, "I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work."

3. Oprah Winfrey: Winfrey overcame a difficult childhood to become one of the most successful media moguls in the world. She was fired from her first job as a television anchor and faced numerous obstacles before launching her own talk show.

5. J.K. Rowling: Rowling's Harry Potter series is one of the most successful book series in history, but she was rejected by multiple publishers before finding success. She has since become a household name and a global icon.

7. Michael Jordan: Jordan is widely considered one of the greatest basketball players of all time, but he was cut from his high school basketball team. He used this setback as motivation and went on to achieve great success in his career.

9. Abraham Lincoln: Lincoln faced numerous setbacks and failures before becoming the 16th President of the United States. He lost several elections and faced personal tragedies, but he persevered and became one of the most respected leaders in American history.

These famous failures serve as a reminder that setbacks and obstacles are a natural part of the journey to success and that perseverance and determination can help individuals overcome even the toughest challenges. Failure occurs everyday, in school, jobs, housework, and within families. It is unavoidable, irritating and causes pessimism. While the thought of flinging your hands in the air and walking away is all too appealing, take a second to connect with the people who have been there and survived.
