find the great in you

                        Every human being has unlimited potential. We can not predict or underestimate the human capability.  Many predictions which were limiting the human potential became the blunders in the history.  I can give many examples for it.
1. Radio- " Radio has no future"- Lord Kelvin, president, Royal Society of London, in 1897.
2. Radio- "The wireless music box has no imaginable commercial value. who would pay for a message sent to nobody in particular?"- David Sarnoff's associates, in response to his urgings for investment in the radio in 1916.
3.Telephone- "This is too many short comings to be seriously considered as a means of communication. The device is inherently of no value to us".- Western Union internal memo, 1876
4. Talking cinema- "Who the hell wants to hear actors talk?"- Harry Warner, Warner Brothers, 1927
5. Plane- "Heavier than air- flying machines are impossible"- Lord Kelvin, president, Royal Society , London,in 1895
6. Computer- "I think there is a world market for may be five computers"- Thomas Watson, chairman IBM in 1943
7.Moon Voyage- "Man will never reach the moon regardless of all future advances"- Dr. Lee De Forest, inventor of the vacuum tube.
8.The Beatles- "We don't like their sound and guitar music is on the way out"- Decca recording co. rejecting the Beatles in 1962.
9. Lata Manngeshkar- "Singing is not your cup of tea"- Sashadhar Mukherjee, the producer of the film"Shaheed"in 1948.
10. Xerox machine- In 1940s Chester Carlson's idea was rejected by 20 companies. after 7 years of rejections, in 1947 accepted- that idea was Xerox machine.
                   So if anybody in the world- who may be your father, mother, teacher, friend, brother- underestimates you, kindly reject their statements because those are their opinions, not facts. The fact is "Human potential is unpredictable". So find your potential and make a history. There was a great Gandhi in Mohandas, great Buddha in Siddhartha, great Vivekanandhan in Narendran. Like this, a great "____", in you and me..The great social work is to find "the great" in us..
