Here is wisdom. Please read at leisure.
In 1962, four nervous young musicians played their first record audition
for the executives of the Decca recording Company. The executives were not
impressed. While turning down this group of musicians, one executive said,
"We don't like their sound. Groups of guitars are on the way out." The
group was called The Beatles.
In 1944, Emmeline Snively, director of the Blue Book Modelling Agency, told
modelling hopeful Norma Jean Baker, "You'd better learn secretarial
work or else get married." She went on and became Marilyn Monroe.
In 1954, Jimmy Denny, manager of the Grand Ole Opry, Fired a singer after
one performance. He told him, "You ain't going' nowhere....son. You ought to
go back to drivin' a truck." He went onto become the most popular singer in
America named Elvis Presley.
When Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone in 1876, it did not ring
off the hook with calls from potential backers. After making a
demonstration call, President Rutherford Hayes said, "That's an amazing
invention, but who would ever want to use one of them?"
When Thomas Edison invented the light bulb, he tried over 2000 experiments
before he got it to work. A young reporter asked him how it felt to fail so
many times. He said, "I never failed once. I invented the light bulb. It
just happened to be a 2000-step process."
In the 1940s, another young inventor named Chester Carlson took his idea to
20 corporations, including some of the biggest in the country. They all
turned him down. In 1947 - after seven long years of rejections! He finally
got a tiny company in Rochester, New York, the Haloid Company, to purchase
the rights to his invention - an electrostatic paper-copying process.
Haloid became Xerox Corporation we know today.
Wilma Rudolph was the 20th of 22 children. She was born prematurely and her
survival was doubtful. When she was 4 years old, she contacted double
pneumonia and scarlet fever, which left her with a paralysed left leg. At
age 9, she removed the metal leg brace she had been dependent on and began
to walk without it. By 13 she had developed a rhythmic walk, which doctors
said was a miracle. That same year she decided to become a runner. She
entered a race and came in last. For the next few years every race she
entered, she came in last. Everyone told her to quit, but she kept on running. One day she actually
won a race. And then another. From then on she won every race she entered.
Eventually this little girl, who was told she would never walk again, went
on to win three Olympic gold medals.
Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experiences
of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, vision cleared,
ambition inspired and success achieved. You gain strength, experience and
confidence by every experience where you really stop to look fear in the
face.... You must do the thing you cannot do. The finest steel gets sent
through the hottest furnace.
-------------------------X----------------------------
The bottom line is CHAMPION is not one who never fails, but one who NEVER
QUITS!

Be careful .. HIV being infected in public places
(Don't avoid Pls read this mail) FROM Arvind Khamitkar , I.A.S, Director of Medical & Research Div, Chennai
Dear Friends,
Kindly take a couple of minutes to go thru this mail. If useful may advise others also . Please pass this on to others this happened in Paris recently and may happen elsewhere also.
A few weeks ago, in a movie theatre, a person felt something poking from her seat. Whe n she got up to see what it was, she found a needle sticking out of the seat with a note attached saying "You have just been infected by HIV". The Disease Control Center (in Paris ) reports many similar events in many other cities recently. All tested needles were HI V Positive.
The Center also reports that needles have been found in cash dispensers at public banking machines. We ask everyone to use extreme caution when faced with this kind of situation. All public chairs/seats should be inspected with vigilance and caution before use. A careful visual inspection should be enough. In addition, they ask that each of you pass this message along to all members of your family and your friends of the potential danger.
Recently, one doctor has narrated a somewhat similar instance that hppened to one of his patients at the Priya Cinema in Delhi. A young girl, engaged and about to be married in a couple of months, was pricked while the movie was going on. The tag with the needle had the message "Welcome to the World of HIV family". Though the doctors told her family that it takes about 6 months before the virus grows strong enough to start damaging the system and a healthy victim could survive about 5-6 years, the girl died in 4 months, perhaps more because of the "Shock thought". We all have to be careful at public places, rest God help! Just think about saving a life by forwarding this message. Please, take a few seconds of your time to pass along.
With Regards, Arvind Khamitkar , I.A.S, Director of Medical & Research Div, Chennai.
Rather than forwarding irrelevant mails, kindly pass this to every one. Probably ur mail can help some save his/her life.
