what if the thing everyone considered useless became the thing people couldn't live without? in 1968, Spencer Silver was trying to create a super-strong adhesive for 3M. instead, he accidentally created one that was weak enough to peel off easily. sounds like a failure, right? but years later, his colleague Art Fry realized that same "useless" adhesive could hold his bookmarks in place without damaging his hymn book. that little discovery eventually became the Post-it Note. sometimes, the value of an idea isn't obvious when you create it. you just have to notice what others overlooked.
