At age 5 his Father died.
At age 16 he quit school.
At age 17 he had already lost four jobs.
At age 18 he got married.
Between ages 18 and 22, he was a railroad
conductor and failed.
He joined the army and washed out there.
He applied for law school he was rejected.
He became an insurance sales man and failed
again.
At age 19 he became a father.
At age 20 his wife left him and took their baby
daughter.
He became a cook and dishwasher in a small
cafe.
He failed in an attempt to kidnap his own
daughter, and eventually he convinced his wife to
return home.
At age 65 he retired.
On the 1st day of retirement he received a cheque
from the Government for $105.
He felt that the Government was saying that he
couldn’t provide for himself.
He decided to commit su***de, it wasn’t worth
living anymore; he had failed so much.
He sat under a tree writing his will, but instead,
he wrote what he would have accomplished with
his life. He realised there was much more that he
hadn’t done. There was one thing he could do
better than anyone he knew. And that was how to
cook.
So he borrowed $87 against his cheque and
bought and fried up some chicken using his
recipe, and went door to door to sell them to his
neighbours in Kentucky.
Remember at age 65 he was ready to commit
su***de.
But at age 88 Colonel Sanders, founder of
Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) Empire was a
billionaire.
Moral of the story: Attitude. It's never too late to
start all over.
MOST IMPORTANLY, IT'S ALL ABOUT YOUR
ATTITUDE. NEVER GIVE UP NO MATTER HOW
HARD IT GETS.
You have what it takes to be successful. Go for it
and make a difference.
