Jeff Bezos is an American technology entrepreneur, investor, philanthropist, and the founder, chairman, and chief executive officer of Amazon, the world's largest online retailer. Source If you don't know this by now, you are truly living under a rock. :)
He started like any entrepreneur through humble beginnings... in his garage in 1994 and wrote up his business plan on a road trip from New York to Seattle. He named his new company Amazon like the mighty river in South America. He accepted around $300,000 from his parents and invested it into Amazon. He also warned many early investors that there was a 70% chance that Amazon would fail or go bankrupt. Source Amazing isn't it? How would you have started?
Many didn't believe that he would be successful but due to his tenacity to keep on growing and driving in his art of online shopping (and a whole lot more), he pushed through barriers after barriers. And what we see today is just the outcome of extreme hard (and smart) work with a whole lot of VISION and Heart!
On March 6, 2018, Forbes formally designated Bezos the wealthiest person in the world with a net worth of $112 billion, making him the first centi-billionaire on the wealth index. Source
No one just becomes a multi Millionaire or Billionaire overnight. They do it by taking one STEP at a time. What is your first step?
When I am down, I take a look at the picture below and see that anything is POSSIBLE, if you and I only believe in our dreams!!!
Will you give your dreams a chance to come alive?
Take that step forward and step out... As Jeff would say, Work Hard, Have Fun and Make History!
Live. BRAVE.
