Humans are one of this history is known and is remembered for his prowess in the unyielding spirit. Abraham Lincoln experienced repeated failure in life. However, it did not dampen the steps of Abraham Lincoln to go ahead, do and try.

Until finally, Abraham Lincoln, the man never gave up, managed to become President of the United States to 16, in 1860. How many times does he fail? Once, twice or ten times? Whatever he has experienced failures, which certainly he never stopped trying.

Abraham Lincoln Had Depression

Men born February 12, 1809, initially was a businessman. But his business fails so reap success out of business before. As a result, he turned the bow into the world of politics by trying to become a member of the local council (DPRD II level). Again, the child is not successful farmer.

Let alone a member of the board, ogled the voters did not. The failure to make re-turned to business. But because basically he did not have the blood of the entrepreneur, his business went bankrupt again.

In the midst of his efforts to rise, Abraham Lincoln was actually a severe test. Newly married wife died several years. Of course the event was very distressing to the young man. Lucky not to make a mental institution.

He was still trying their luck again in politics. This time he followed the speech contest, with the determination of confidence in his ability to speak. But again he failed. Perhaps because of the influence of the death of his wife, his failure this time was more severe than the previous. He suffered severe depression and almost entered a mental hospital.

Failures continue to plague Abraham Lincoln

Failure experienced by Abraham Lincoln did not stop there. He was stubborn and unyielding. Although almost entered a mental hospital, but again he tried to enter politics by becoming a member of the senate.

You can already guess the result is not it? Yeah right, he failed. A few years later, Lincoln also register as members of congress. You guessed right again. The result he still failed. Even up to 3 times trying to become a member of congress, it still fails.

See reality as it is, maybe someone else will stop trying. But not for men born in this simple cabin. Instead of lowering the target, but instead raising it higher. He ran as vice presidential candidate. Any logic would blame the Lincoln steps. Look at the record of his life. Board members failed to enter the local level, failed to enter the senate and also failed to become a member of congress. Over and over again! Who wants to make it as a vice president? Sure enough, he failed again to be vice president.
