A new blog to contain answers to prompts |
Since my old blog "Everyday Canvas "  became overfilled, here's a new one. This new blog item will continue answering prompts, the same as the old one. Cool water cascading to low ground
To spread good will and hope all around.  |
| Prompt: “Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to success is to try just one more time.” Thomas Edison Do you give up easily? why do you think some people quit at the beginning of a mission or project? And/or What is Edison trying to tell us? ------------------- Oh well, who has the stamina and the will power that Thomas Edison had! He had perseverance all right. If I remember correctly, he failed thousands of times before his famous light-bulb happened. As for me, no, I don't give up easily, but I don't also keep on whipping a dead horse, either, which shows why I am not an Edison.  Edison suggests failure doesn't come from challenges themselves but when we stop trying. Giving up, to him, is abandonment. To me, not giving up a something which doesn't work after a good amount of tries is self-torture. On the other hand, it is true that throughout our human history, the most successful people are those who didn't give up. They may have been, scientists, athletes, leaders or inventors. And I'm glad they didn't give up or else, we wouldn't have today's technology. Or come to think of it, maybe they should take it more slowly. The latest findings and adaptations to technologies are unbelievable. Then, imagine me and the latest technologies that surfaced with ai! No, you can't possibly imagine! Despite myself, I do believe in the importance of resilience and a strong mindset. Strength, most of the time, becomes persistence, and quitting early is giving up too easily. And I hope, we do get more and better inventions. Especially those that close the gap between the incompetence of humans and their companies and businesses to handle and adapt to new ways and technologies. |
