Composition # 12 Failed Plans
Have you ever failed in a plan? Life is full of many plans, some completed others failed, but all they are great challenges to meet which in the long term will always be used. Many times we are in dead ends with no solution and things that do not make sense of things, but we must be positive and always believe in ourselves. Great, famous and spectacular things that we know today were not easy things to do, there have always been many people who are behind them working hard to make reality their dreams and make a better world. They might fail but it does not mean that it is impossible to do. Failed plans are challenges that can help us to improve ourselves.
My family started in the agricultural business, but our business failed. In the year 2006, my family started to work on agricultural business. We had the plan to work in the production of milk. We started without having much knowledge in agricultural sciences. We thought ourselves how to work with dairy cattle and produce good profits. Years of work selecting the best cows gave us good profits. The farm was in his prime. It could be easy to reach the top, but it is harder to stay there. The problem started in the year 2008; we decided to make a bigger investment in a larger-scale production. At that time we bought more cows with the idea to make more profits. It was then when something was wrong which we could not know, some cows died. In two weeks, there were about seven cows which died for no reason. We were frustrated, we did not know what the problem was, and we wanted to solve it, but could not. Our plans had failed. We were in a dead end. For several months we sought the help from agricultural technicians to find the problem but even they could not find it.
Behind Thomas Edison's inventions, there were many failures. Thomas Edison was an American inventor, scientist, and businessman who developed many devices that greatly influenced life around the world. In 1878, Edison decided to change the story, and throw away the old stools used as light. He believed that the light bulb was the best source of light than gas. The gas was far from convenient. It was dirty, unhealthy, uncomfortable and dangerous. It caused explosions, fires and its care could not be trusted to children. But the major deficit of gas was that it could not serve as a source of power. He worked hardly and made a lot of experiments with thousands of different filaments to find just the right materials, but he failed many times. He had the problem that the filament was not very strong and it burned very fast. Many people did not believe that he was able to finish his project. Edison was very frustrated, but his colleagues encouraged him to keep trying and working up to achieve his goal.
