10 Entrepreneurs Who Failed Before They Succeeded

The value of success is best known to people who have failed. Take a look at the stories of the most successful people today, and you will find that they have been through failures in their life or business. As rightly said by Henry Ford, “Failure is simply the opportunity to begin again, this time more intelligently.”

Entrepreneurs who have made it big in the business world today can tell you all about their failures that have acted as stepping stones to success. It is easy for us to read success stories of famous entrepreneurs and think that they’ve earned it all overnight. But, if you truly want to be inspired, you must read about the pitfalls they’ve faced to get to where they are today. It’s not about how many times you fall, it’s about how you get back up each time you fall.

These people who were once a nobody, have now risen to be role models for many aspiring entrepreneurs. They pushed through the boundaries, fought against the walls, and persevered.
