There’s ALWAYS beauty in innocence and in authenticity in life! 🌷

Of course a bit of humor can honor the moment of joy. 🥹 

How often will we be able to experience realism like this if we are conjuring a world of AI …. that’s ubiquitous! ?

“They are in trouble again!” 😅👶💥

When a baby, a dog, and a cat team up, chaos is guaranteed — and AI is just sitting there trying to analyze the disaster 🤖🐶🐱👶

From spilled milk to knocked-over plants, AI Nexus is learning fast… but even the smartest algorithms can’t predict the pure adorable anarchy of pets and toddlers together.

Kumud, thank you for sharing these very important historical lessons.

🚀  To me ... 
~ a rejection is set up for resumption 
~ a setback is a precursor for a comeback 
~ a NO gets us ready for a N.O. - "New Opportunity" 

All of these moments do not define us as failures. Instead, these "failings" affirm our vision in, conviction in, faith in, and commitment to our dreams. 

These hurdles are necessary for new heights of experiences to be innovated, formed, and realized. 🌱

Some of the world’s greatest innovations were born from rejection.

Visionaries who were underestimated went on to reshape entire industries.
🚗 Toyota rejected a mechanic’s new design idea- he built Honda instead.
🐂 Ferrari dismissed advice from a tractor maker- he built Lamborghini.
🏎️ Lamborghini refused to fund an engineer’s carbon-fiber project- he built Pagani.
💻 HP turned down a computer idea from their own engineer- he co-founded Apple.
🎮 Nintendo walked away from a Sony engineer’s disc-console concept- he built PlayStation.
📼 Blockbuster laughed at a founder looking to partner- he built Netflix.
Rejection isn’t a dead end. It’s a redirection.

Sometimes the “no” you hear today becomes the reason you build something the world can’t ignore tomorrow.

If you’re working on something bold and people don’t get it yet…
Keep going.

What’s one rejection that pushed you toward something better? Share your story below. 
Repost as someone might need this reminder to keep going. Thanks!
