Thomas Edison success story

One day

Thomas Edison came home and gave a paper to his mother. He told her, “My teacher gave this paper to me and told me to only give it to my mother.”

His mother’s eyes were tearful as she read the letter out loud to her child: Your son is a genius. This school is too small for him and doesn’t have enough good teachers for training him. Please teach him yourself.

After many, many years, after Edison’s mother died and he was now one of the greatest inventors of the century, one day he was looking through old family things. Suddenly he saw a folded paper in the corner of a drawer in a desk. He took it and opened it up.

On the paper was written: Your son is addled [mentally ill]. We won’t let him come to school any more.

Edison cried for hours and then he wrote in his diary: “Thomas Alva Edison was an addled child that, by a hero mother, became the genius of the century.

Childhood

Sachin Tendulkar was born in Dadar, Mumbai to Ramesh Tendulkar, a marathi novelist and his wife, Rahni, who worked in the insurance industry. He was named after Sachin Dev Barman, Ramesh Tendulkar's favourite music director in bollywood. He has two older half siblings, from his father's first marriave, and a sister. 

As a young child, Sachin Tendulkar grew up in Mumbai. His parents were relatively modest and middle class, offering Sachin Tendulkar reasonable educational options and a potentially bright future. However, Sachin Tendulkar took his education as an obligation instead of as an opportunity, and was known as a bully in his early years.

Before Cricket

Driven by his idol, tennis star John McEnroe, Sachin played tennis and used to start fights with students at his school, eventually becoming known amongst the staff as a troublemaker with a limited educational future. Noticing his mischievous attitude and endless energy, his half-brother Ajit introduced him to cricket in his adolescent years.

While he viewed schoolwork as a nuisance and academics as a waste of time, young Sachin Tendulkar immediately took an interest to cricket. He practiced endlessly as a batsman, both on his own and with his friends. His skills caught the attention of a well-known local cricket coach in Mumbai called Ramakant Achrekar.

Early Career

Ramakant immediately noticed Sachin’s talent, and recommended that he move to a new high school with a more advanced cricket program. Sachin followed his advice, moving to the new school shortly after. Here, he finally found a group of players that had the drive and ability to challenge him and help him improve his skills further. Sachin devoted his life to cricket with an intensity level and drive that few would ever match. He would spend hours in the training grounds after school, creating a betting system with his fellow players to keep himself motivated. He would place one rupee on the top of the stumps, and challenge players to bowl him out.

..Dhirubhai Ambani Most Success Full Man of the Country

  THE STORY OF SUCESS:                                                                                                            Dhirajlal Hirachand Ambani(Dhirubhai Ambani ) was born on 28 December 1932, at Chorwad, Junagadh (now the state of Gujarat, India) to Hirachand Gordhanbhai Ambani and Jamnaben in a Modh family of very moderate means.He was the second son of a school teacher.

Dhirubhai Ambani is said to have started his entrepreneurial career by selling "pakora" to pilgrims in Mount Girnar over the weekends. When he was 16 years old, he moved to Aden, Yemen. He worked with A. Besse & Co. for a salary of Rs.300. Two years later, A. Besse & Co. became the distributors for Shell products, and Dhirubhai was promoted to manage the company’s filling station at the port of Aden.
He was married to Kokilaben and had two sons, Mukesh Ambani and Anil Ambani and two daughters, Nina Kothari and Deepti Salgaocar.
In 1962, Dhirubhai returned to India and started the Reliance Commercial Corporation with a capital of Rs.15,000.00. The primary business of Reliance Commercial Corporation was to import polyester yarn and export spices.The first office of the Reliance Commercial Corporation was set up at the Narsinathan Street in Masjid Bunder. It was a 350 Sq. Ft. room with a telephone, one table and three chairs. Initially, they had two assistants to help them with their business. In 1965, Champaklal Damani and Dhirubhai Ambani ended their partnership and Dhirubhai started on his own. It is believed that both had different temperaments and a different take on how to conduct business. While Mr. Damani was a cautious trader and did not believe in building yarn inventories, Dhirubhai was a known risk taker and he considered that building inventories, anticipating a price rise, and making profits through that was good for growth.

During this period, Dhirubhai and his family used to stay in one bedroom apartment at the Jaihind Estate in Bhuleshwar, Mumbai. In 1968, he moved to an upmarket apartment at Altamount Road in South Mumbai. Ambani's net worth was estimated at about Rs.1 million by late 1960s.

Ambani's his great achievement was that he showed Indians what was possible. With no Oxford or Yale degree and no family capital, he achieved what the Elite "brown sahibs" of New Delhi could not: he built an ultramodern, profitable, global enterprise in India itself. What's more, he enlisted four million Indians, a generation weaned on nanny-state socialism, in an adventure in can-do capitalism, convincing them to load up on Reliance stock.

Still, Ambani seems destined to be remembered as a folk hero—an example of what a man from one of India's poor villages can accomplish with non-shrink ambition.
