Sixteenth century astronomer Galileo Galilei stood on the shoulders of 15th century astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus when he proved through various experiments that Copernicus’ sun centered theory was correct.
Sir Isaac Newton, considered the father of physics and calculus, stood on the shoulders of Copernicus, Galileo and Rene Descartes.
Albert Einstein stood on the shoulders of Galileo, Copernicus, Newton, Descartes and many others when he came up with his famous General and Special Theories of Relativity.
All successful individuals stand on the shoulders of others, who helped motivate and guide them in their journey.
Some of the shoulders we climb up on are found at home – mentoring, supportive parents.
Others are found in school – devoted teachers.
Oftentimes a boss or supervisor can be a mentor, showing us what to do and what not to do.
Books can become our mentors.
Or, you can spend five years interviewing 361 rich and poor people.
If you want to be successful, you have to continuously learn from others, what to do and what not to do.
Success is a team effort. No one succeeds on their own.
