Thomas Edison was one of the most successful inventors the world has ever seen.1. Bui people found that although Edison was good at inventing new things, he was a poor fisherman. He used to spend an hour almost every day sitting at the side of a river and fish. He always fished all alone by himself.2. People asked Edison, “Why are you so crazy about fishing when you are so bad at it?” His answer was, “I really never caught ant fish because I have never used any bait (诱饵).” Another question followed, “Why would you fish without bait?” Edison answered, “Because when you fish without bait, people don’t disturb you and neither do the fish.3.” Sometimes the world’s best inventor was the world’s worst fisherman. In fact, because Edison was the world’s worst fisherman, he could become the world’s greatest inventor. Are you setting aside some time for yourself to think?4.
