• The Beatles were rejected by record label after record label. One notable response was “guitar groups are on the way out” and “The Beatles have no future in show business.”
• J. K. Rowling received a letter that claimed, “Children just aren’t interested in witches and wizards anymore.”
• Winston Churchill’s father said that Winston was “unfit for a career in law or politics.”
• A modeling agency told Marilyn Monroe: “You better get secretarial work or get married.”

Imagine if these brilliant people actually listened to doubt, how different the world may be!
