Failure is only a temporary setback. Everyone encounters failure at some point. but what really matters is how to deal with that failure and how to learn from it.

Here are some businessmen whose stories ended with success:

Ariana Huffington

It is hard to believe that one of the most popular names in publishing had been rejected by dozens of major publishers. Huffington’s second book, which she tried to publish long before the creation of the now-known “Huffington Post” website, was rejected 36 times before it was eventually accepted. Even the Huffington Post website itself did not become successful immediately. In fact, when it was launched, there were many negative reviews about its quality. Huffington has clearly overcome the failures and wrote her name as one of the most successful publishers on the internet.

Bill Gates

Bill Gates is now one of the richest businessmen in the world, but he did not make his fortune in an easy straight path. He entered the entrepreneurial field with a company called Traf-O-Data, which aimed to process and analyze traffic tape data. He tried to sell the idea alongside his business partner, Paul Allen, but he failed miserably. However, failure did not stop him from exploring new opportunities. A few years later, he created the first Microsoft product and forged a new path to success.

Walt Disney

He is one of the greatest innovators of the twentieth century. He was fired from a newspaper as he was told that he “lacked creativity”. Disney formed the first animation company, which was called Laugh-O-Gram Films. He raised $15,000 for the company but was eventually forced to close it. Disney found his way to Hollywood and faced more criticism and failure, until the first of his few classic films began to achieve fame.

Steve Jobs

Steve Jobs is an impressive businessman for his limitless innovations. Jobs achieved success in his twenties when Apple became a huge empire. But when he was 30 years old, Apple’s board of directors decided to fire him. Then Jobs founded a new company called NeXT, which was eventually acquired by Apple. Once back at Apple, Steve Jobs proved his skills by taking Apple to new heights.
