Tolexander: This time in 2015, Rtd General Muhamad Buhari will make this list!

Lol.....bro he's not contesting 2015 how's he going to make the list!

But before these
successful super stars
made it big in their
respective industries, they first failed, were fired,
or heard the word "no" countless times.
But they never gave up.

See what 4 game changers had to overcome
before becoming famous.

1. Walt Disney was told a mouse
would never work.

Before Walt Disney built the empire he has
today, he was fired by a newspaper editor
because "he lacked imagination and had
no good ideas."
In 1921, Walt formed his first animation
company in Kansas City, where he made a
deal with a distribution company in New
York, in which he would ship them his
cartoons and get paid six months down the
road. He was forced to dissolve his
company and at one point could not pay
his rent and reportedly survived by eating
dog food.
Also, When Walt first tried to get MGM
studios to distribute Mickey Mouse in 1927,
he was told that the idea would never work
because a giant mouse on the screen
would terrify women.
Entrepreneur Walt had a whole slew of bad
ideas before coming up with good ones, his company made a revenue of $38billion in the last 12months!!

2. J.K. Rowling was on welfare.

Before J.K. Rowling had any "Harry Potter"
success, the writer was a divorced singled
mother on welfare struggling to get by
while also attending school and writing a
novel.
Luckily, that novel turned into the "Harry
Potter" franchise, which has since made
Rowling a billionaire as of April 2012.

3. Oprah Winfrey was told she
was "unfit for TV."

At age of 22, the now-TV mogul was fired
from her job as a television reporter
because she was "unfit for tv."
Winfrey was terminated from her post as
co-anchor of the 6 o'clock weekday news
on Baltimore's WJZ-TV after the show
received low ratings. Winfrey has called it
the “first and worst failure of her TV
career.”
Winfrey was then demoted to morning TV,
where she found her voice and met fellow
newbie Gayle King, who would one day
become her producer and editor of O, The
Oprah Magazine.
Seven years later, Winfrey moved to
Chicago, where her self-titled talk show
went on to dominate daytime TV for 25
years, and ultimately head her own
channel, OWN.

4.Steve Jobs was removed from
the company he started.

Steve Jobs was a college dropout, a fired
tech executive and an unsuccessful
businessman.
At 30-years-old he was left devastated after
being unceremoniously removed from the
company he founded.
In a 2005 commencement speech at
Stanford University, Jobs explained, "I
didn't see it then, but it turned out that
getting fired from Apple was the best thing
that could have ever happened to me. The
heaviness of being successful was replaced
by the lightness of being a beginner again,
less sure about everything. It freed me to
enter one of the most creative periods of
my life."
After his return to Apple, Jobs created
several iconic products, including the iPod,
iPhone and iPad, which have changed the
face of consumer technology forever. And
Jobs became one of the richest men in the
world.

Seriously the list goes on, do you know nicki minaj got fired from her job 10times or Steven Spielberg got rejected
from film school ... three
times. Even the "great" jordan himself said "I
have missed more than 9,000 shots in my
career. I have lost almost 300 games. On
26 occasions I have been entrusted to take
the game winning shot, and I missed. I
have failed over and over and over again in
my life. And that is why I succeed.".....what ever you are going through today keep it in mind its preparing you for something greater and better!!
