One year, there was a severe drought in a small mountain village, and rice could not survive. They had to dig a well to get water from the mountain. Three people went. The first man hit 6 meters deep, missed the water and gave up. When the second man saw the first man give up, his belief was shaken. He hit 9 meters deep, missed the water and gave up. The third man also hit 9 meters. Seeing that the first two people had given up, he thought, "There is no water to give up. Might as well keep digging. There may be a glimmer of hope. " When he dug 9.5 meters deep, the water came out. Why didn't the third man give up when he saw the first two people give up? Because he chose to keep digging for the third person, instead of giving up like the first two. It is precisely because he chose to dig down that he will dig out water. So different choices are the key to success.
The great inventor Edison invented more than 2000 patents in his life. The electric light is one of his great inventions. When he invented the electric light, he experimented 999 times, but all ended in failure. His confidence was badly hurt. Whether to give up or continue, he chose to continue in the two choices. He learned the lesson from the first 999 experiment, then designed another experiment, and finally succeeded. Why did Edison succeed after 999 failures? It was because he chose to continue rather than give up that his confidence was re-established, and it was also because of his confidence that his experiment was more perfect, so he succeeded. So different choices are the key to success.
