Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon, started his journey with a bold vision and relentless determination. In 1994, Bezos left a stable job on Wall Street to launch an online bookstore from his garage. Despite skepticism from many, he focused on creating a customer-centric business model. Bezos prioritized innovation, constantly reinvesting profits to expand Amazon's offerings. Over time, Amazon evolved from selling books to becoming a global e-commerce giant, offering everything from electronics to cloud services. His mantra, "Work hard, have fun, make history," drove Amazon's culture of experimentation and resilience. Even during failures, Bezos viewed setbacks as opportunities for learning. His long-term thinking and willingness to embrace risk helped him grow Amazon into one of the most valuable companies in the world, making him one of the wealthiest individuals globally. Bezos' story is a testament to dreaming big, taking calculated risks, and persevering against all odds.
