Thomas Edison |
Edison met the youngman at his company's party in New York and interviewed him about the car. He was impressed!
He had the same idea as the young man but he was considering electricity as the power source while the young man used a gasoline engine to power the car. He slammed his fist down and shouted "young man, that's the thing! You have it! I think you are on to something! I encourage you to continue your pursuits!"
With these words of encouragement from the most highly respected inventor in the United States at that time, HENRY Ford continued his work, invented a car and became wealthy.
On december 9, 1914, Thomas Edison's laboratory and factory got burnt. He was 67years old and the damage was too extensive for insurance cover. Before the ashes were cold, Henry Ford handed Edison a cheque of $750,000 with a note saying that Edison could have more if he needed it!

Don't ever be jealous of other people's success. If you can't win a race, help the person in front of you break the record!

Your candle will not lose its light when it lights up another candle. Getting the job done is more important than who gets the glory!
Be inspired, speak positively into someone's life today, and possibly save a soul.
