From Rejection to Greatness

Michael Jordan got cut from his high school varsity basketball team. The greatest player

of all time wasn't good enough at fifteen. Instead of quitting, he used that rejection as fuel.

He practiced relentlessly, waking up before dawn to shoot hundreds of baskets. Years later,

he would miss over nine thousand shots in his career and lose almost three hundred games.

But Jordan understood something most people don't. Failure isn't the opposite of success,

it's the training ground for it. He once said he succeeded because he wasn't afraid

to fail. Every missed shot taught him something new. Every loss made

him hungrier. That high school rejection became the foundation of six NBA championships.
