Dear all,





This is a motivational story from the life of Mr. Henry Ford.



One day, Mr. Ford was jogging in the in Park, there were many people doing the same there…!



He heard three persons talking about him.



ONE: See that’s Henry Ford! He is so lucky to be so rich…!!



TWO: Yes! Even if he is not educated enough still he has got so much Wealth!!



THREE: The person like him, not educated, having no knowledge at all, turn very rich…. Must be LUCKY!!!



Next day all of them got a legal notice, Mr. Ford had sued them…..!

The Judge asked the three people whether they accept, that they have said above thins about Mr. Ford, they agreed.



In the court, Mr. Ford explained the KNOWLEDGE, LUCK. And EDUCATION..!



Mr. Ford: “My Lord they called me lucky, no doubt I am as lucky as they are!

but what more luck they see, is earned by my hard work, and efforts!



So, I claim that ignoring my efforts and hard work, they have commented on me in PUBLIC!!



Sir! Its true that, am not formally educated enough, so, do they want claim that if I had been highly educated, then only I have to possess wealth?



Thirdly, the most important, how they can say I don’t have knowledge!!

My Lord, I can show I have knowledge!

You can ask me questions in Sciences, History, Philosophy, Maths, Geometry and whatever….!”



First person was a scholar in Mathematics; he asked a question to Mr. Ford.

Mr. Ford asked his mathematics person to answer the question, he did.



First person argued that Mr. Ford has himself not answered my question!, so how can he be said as having Knowledge!!!

Mr. Ford Said, I pay this Mathematics person $1000 pm for his services, If I can pay him $1000 pm, how much I would have been earning out of his knowledge, surely More than $1000 pm… say $10000pm.!



My lord! if I can get knowledge of mathematics at $1000 pm why should I waste my 25 years in learning that which is not useful to me daily!!

And same for other branches of Knowledge too!



Now Sir, you tell me who is knowledgeable,

Earning $1000 pm with 25 years of FORMAL EDUCATION or the ONE who earns $ 9000 pm (10000-1000)!! Without FORMAL EDUCATION!!!!



Who is liable to be rich? And WHY HE SHOULD NOT RIDE HIS LUCK?



Mr. Ford won the case!!



As we all know, before his highly qualified and competent engineers could imagine, he knew that V8 engine can be made and then those engineers made it!!!
