Motivation #12 One has to remember that every failure can be a stepping stone to something better.-Colonel Harland Sandars(KFC)
Hello my all dear steemians, How are you? I hope you all are good.
Today I have brought the story of a such person in front of you who had failed many times in his life, yet he did not stop. And on the strength of his hard work, he made a company. He proved, that every person can be successful if he does not stop trying because a person who try, never fail.

Colonel Harland David Sanders (September 9, 1890 – December 16, 1980) was an American businessman, best known for founding fast food chicken restaurant chain Kentucky Fried Chicken (now known as KFC) and later acting as the company's brand ambassador and symbol. His name and image are still symbols of the company.source
Harland was born in a poor family. His father used to believe him a lot. His parents hoped that one day he would definitely do something .
When he was five years old, his father had died. His mother married another and he ran away from his house. He left his study at the age of only seventeen. Even three times he was also taken out of the job. At the age of nineteen, he became a father, but life took away from him this pleasure too. His son died. A year later, his wife and daughters left him and went away. He tried to kidnap her daughter to meet her but he failed. At the age of twenty-two, he was also removed from the construction work. After that he joined army but he was suspended from army also. Wanted to be a lawyer but even a lawyer could not be. At the age of 34, he started a new business but he failed even in that. At the age of 40, he started to sell chicken at a petrol pump but that was not even run. Ten years after that, he opened his own hotel, but there was a fire in that and that was ruined. He started that restaurant again.

Once he said that:-
The easy way is efficacious and speedy, the hard way arduous and long. But, as the clock ticks, the easy way becomes harder and the hard way becomes easier. And as the calendar records the years, it becomes increasingly evident that the easy way rests hazardously upon shifting sands, whereas the hard way builds solidly a foundation of confidence that cannot be swept away.

At the age of 65, a such age in which people become retire, accept the defeat. Don't want to try again. In that age he started a such business with the use of chicken which is in the 120 countries today. There are over 20,000 KFC restaurants in the world today. And he(Harland) earn more than $ 23 billion in a year.
So guys, never ever give up, Watch his will power that he never left trying, and finally he achieved a big success.
He is such a wonderful person. There were thousands of problems in his life but he did not stop. He is a big inspiration to this world and we all should learn from him.
