‘Failure is the stepping stone to success.’ Elucidate with reference to Richard Ebright.
CHAPTER- THE MAKING OF A SCIENTIST (ENGLISH LITERATURE)
Please Answer Fast!!!!!!

Dear Student,

In the seventh grade, Ebright participated in a country science fair and lost it. Even though he was sad, he was motivated. He realised the need to do real scientific experiments. Next year he won the first prize in the zoology division. He also found out an unknown insect hormone which opened his way to a new theory on the life of cells. From Ebright's story, it is evident that failure is the stepping stone to success.

When Ebright was in the seventh grade, he participated in a country science fair and lost it. His entry was slides of frog tissues, shown under a microscope. He felt really sad when he just sat there and others won many prizes. That was the time of motivation. A sense of real Science entered him and he realized that winners had to try to do real experiments and not just a simple neat display. The competitive spirit started entering him and he thought of conducting experiments. Next year his experiment on Viceroys copying Monarchs came first in the zoology division and overall third. Next year he found out an unknown insect hormone which led him to his new theory on the life of cells. From Ebrights story, it is sufficiently clear that defeat is the stepping stone of success. Not winning anything at the science fair encouraged him greatly to conduct experiments. Thus we can conclude that for Ebright, Failure is the stepping stone of success.
