When Hawking 12 years old, two boys in the class took a bag of candy and bet that he would never succeed. The classmates ironically nicknamed him "Einstein". Who knows, after more than 20 years, the little boy who was not outstanding in those days really became a master of physics. What is the reason?

Just when he was disheartened, he suddenly saw a spider weaving a web in the corner. When a gust of wind blew, the spider web was immediately broken by the wind, but the spider didn't stop there. It made unremitting efforts to spin silk and immediately began to reconnect with the network.
Finally, when it was about to take shape, another strong wind blew and the web was torn again, but the spider was not discouraged and moved to weave the web again.

How could he lose his morale because of a temporary failure?
So, General Wellington accepted the fact of defeat, rallied and fought hard for seven years, and finally defeated Napoleon in the Battle of Waterloo, washing away the shame of repeated defeats.
