Never Give Up. Success Could be Waiting Just Around the Corner.

Never Give Up. Success Could be Waiting Just Around the Corner.

We are told that Louis Pasteur, in the days before he was famous, would walk in the park, pondering the nature of the “invisible enemy", the Rabies germs, in order to find a way to kill them. But Pasteur’s ideas were not compelling to his contemporaries. We are shown pictures of children pointing fingers at him and mocking him, and adults yelling at him that what he attempted was impossible. Pasteur soldiered on, though, and we are all the beneficiaries of that. For every Pasteur, there must be thousands of people who have had an idea that didn’t work out, as well as countless others whose ideas were good, but never got traction. Science depends on the tenacity of the person with the new idea, even when others take pleasure in mocking it.
