I was watching this video from the daily stoic, where Ryan mentions about Thomas Edison and his reaction when his factory burns down.
That man could have had so many thoughts, so many interpretations, yet he choose do react as follows below
Edison calmly walked over to his son as he watched the fire destroy the factory. In a childlike voice, Edison told his 24-year-old, “Go get your mother and all her friends. They’ll never see a fire like this again.”
When Charles objected, Edison said, “It’s all right. We’ve just got rid of a lot of rubbish.”
Damn man, that’s super cool!
I’m gonna remember this for whenever adversity strikes.
