Entrepreneurial lessons from Socrates, Newton And More


Albert Einstein

Life: 1879 to 1955

Famous for: Theory of general relativity

Quote: “A person who never made a mistake, never tried anything new.”

Albert Einstein is known to be a genius but he didn’t make such promises. Albert Einstein could not speak until four and could not read until he was seven; this made his parents think that he was mentally handicapped, slow and anti social. He was expelled from school and also he was refused admittance to the Zurich Polytechnic School. His work in physics is considered to be the best and he also received the Noble Prize for his achievements in the subjects. Though he was underestimated and expelled for certain reasons he proved the world that he could teach them all a lesson.

An entrepreneur must have the ability to face situations and not to give up on any note. He must develop courage and fight for his existence to prove his worth in this world. Albert Einstein can be kept as a role model for this by any entrepreneur for the confidence and self respect he carried all his life.
