An elderly man, who was so broke, living in a small
house and owned an old car.
He was living off of $99 social security checks.
At 65 years of age, he decide things had to change. So he thought about what he had to offer. His friends raved about his chicken recipe.
He decided that this was his best shot at making a change.
He left Kentucky and traveled to different states to try to sell his
recipe. He told restaurant owners that he had a mouthwatering
chicken recipe.
He offered the recipe to them for free, just asking for a small percentage on the items sold. Sounds like a good deal, right?
Unfortunately, not to most of the restaurants.
He heard NO over 1000 times. Even after all of those rejections, he didn’t give up.
He believed his chicken recipe was something special. He got
rejected 1009 times before he heard his first yes.
With that one success Colonel Hartland Sanders changed the way
Americans eat chicken.
Kentucky Fried Chicken, popularly known as KFC, was born.
Remember, never give up and always believe in yourself in spite of
rejection.
It doesn't matter how many Nos' you must have gotten, all you need is a single 'Yes'.
But to get that 'Yes', you must continue to strive .
So sweetie, get out of your comfort zone to a place you can showcase that talent.
