Colonel Saunders story of #kfc
“I was 65 years old. I had $105 and a chicken recipe… and no one believed in me. But that was more than enough.”
My life was a rollercoaster of rejection and failure.
I lost jobs, failed in business, got turned away by the military, and never even finished school.
By the time I was 65, I was living off a small government pension.
But I had something:
A fried chicken recipe I had perfected in an old gas station.
So I packed up my skillet, jumped in my car… and started knocking on doors.
I got rejected over 1,000 times.
I slept in my car.
Some days, I didn’t even have enough to eat.
But every time someone said “no,” I told myself:
“The next one will say yes.”
And one day — someone did.
A small restaurant agreed to give my recipe a try… and the madness began.
Today, KFC is in over 150 countries, and my face is printed on millions of boxes around the world.
All because I refused to quit when no one else believed in me.
I was never the youngest. Never the smartest.
But I was the one who never gave up.
So if you’re down right now… maybe that’s exactly where your real story begins.
Age doesn’t matter. Failure doesn’t matter.
The only thing that matters… is not stopping when your heart tells you: keep going.
Wishing you strength, purpose, and peace wherever you are on your journey.
— Rest easy, friends. Stay inspired. 🍗🔥
