Thomas Edison, the greatest inventor in the history of mankind, failed around 10,000 times in his struggle to invent a light bulb. You will be surprised to know that this great man had a formal schooling of about only 3 months in his life. And, you will be even more surprised to know that he was a partially deaf 4 year old boy who returned one day from school with a note from his teacher. The note read, "Your Tommy is too stupid to learn, take him out from school". His mother taught him at home since then.
