Why did I share this post?
I wanted to share this post for those whom feel like a failure, have failed and decided thatās that.
I was told once there is no such thing as failure only feedback.
Read this post and then think š¤ again what failure means and how can you have a go in a different way until you get your goal, leave your mark, make things happen.
Itās a bit like Pantene āit wonāt happen over night but it will happen!ā
Just like Nike says āJust do it!ā
Just have a go! Happy reading š
In the 1970s, vacuum cleaners always lost suction as their bags clogged. Most people thought that was normal.
James Dyson thought it was bad engineering.
After seeing a sawmill use cyclones to spin dust from the air, he wondered if the same principle could keep vacuums powerful.
With his wifeās artāteacher salary keeping the family afloat, Dyson spent five years in a shed, building 5,127 prototypes.
Each one tested airflow, cone angles, and pressure drops.
The last finally worked. But when he tried to license it, every major manufacturer said no, protecting their bag business over better engineering.
So he launched it himself.
In 1991, his āGāForceā won a design prize in Japan, selling for around $2,000. Two years later, the DC01 became the UKās bestāselling vacuum.
Dyson had mortgaged his home and endured years of rejection, but persistence and physics reshaped an industry.
