| Thomas Edison And Henry Ford (Photo credit: Tom Raftery) |
Thomas Edison once observed that the reason most folks don’t
recognize opportunity when it comes knocking is that it is often dressed
in coveralls and looks like work. Edison knew that anything worthwhile
never comes easily; if it were easy, anyone could do it. Because he
persisted far beyond the point the average person would consider
reasonable and rational, he produced inventions that even the most
learned people of the day considered impossible.
Great advances in knowledge are often achieved by people with an almost
fanatical devotion to finding the solution to a problem. Flashes of
inspiration alone are not enough to ensure success; they must be
followed by determined, persistent action.
