If we taught music the way we try to teach engineering, in an unbroken four year course, we could end up with all theory and no music. When we study music, we start to practice from the beginning, and we practice for the entire time, because there is no other way to become a musician. Neither can we become engineers just by studying a text book, because practical experience is needed to correlate the so called theory with practice. I think that the greatest education in the world is the education which helps one to be able to do the right things at the time it has to be done. There exist limitless opportunities in every industry. Where there is an open mind, there will always be a frontier. If a fellow wants to be a nobody in the business world, let him neglect sending the mail man to somebody on his behalf. You will never stub your toe standing still. The faster you go, the more chance there is of stubbing your toe, but the more chance you have of getting somewhere. It's amazing what ordinary people can do if they set out without preconceived notions. Believe and act as if it were impossible to fail. We should all be concerned about the future because we will have to live the rest of our lives there. The biggest job we have is to teach a newly hired employee how to fail intelligently. We have to train him to experiment over and over and to keep on trying and failing until he learns what will work. An inventor fails 999 times, and if he succeeds once, he's in. He treats his failures simply as practice shots. |
