Bill Gates, the richest American and the chairman of Microsoft, had visualized the computers running on every desk and Microsoft software on every computer long before it ever happened.
Bill Gates has described his imagination and foresight as one of the greatest assets to achieving business success. He developed new technology and designed new opportunities due in large part to the creative thinking aspect of engineering. Where is the world of technology going? How can we create and innovate existing concepts? How do people imagine the future regarding a certain medium? Whatever the industry, dreaming up the future is the first step towards seeing it realized. Creating something that solves a problem, fills a need or engineers innovative solutions begins with making the transition from creative thought to applied principles.
• Bill Gates states that his biggest personal regret is not learning about global poverty and indecencies that plague many countries sooner in his life.
• He took to social media this year during college graduations and gave many millennial graduates advice on where to go from here, including staying energized and focusing on the sciences, energy, and artificial intelligence industries.
• His philanthropic aspirations show us that, even though business is important, people still have a responsibility towards the world around us.
• Managing your time effectively is key.
