Success happens after failure, sometimes many failures. Read about 15 people who failed their way to success.
“I’m always fascinated to learn of famous people who were told they didn’t measure up, or they couldn’t do something….I am partial, always, to the underdog, and always root for the person who always tries their best and defies what someone else might say about their abilities. When teaching children , I always try to give them a firm foundation of confidence to pursue their dreams, no matter what that may look like. Someone may tell a child that they do not like their [the student’s] voice or their instrument but what matters is that they like it…that they love it no matter what anyone else thinks or says. To help someone see that they have “wings to fly” so-to-speak, is the greatest gift you can give someone who is studying music, or theater, or something in the arts. (Really any pursuit) Helping someone realize their potential is phenomenal. This article lists 10 famous people who were told they couldn’t. They defied what they were told and went on to fulfill their dreams.” – Ms. Leann
