Yet, he quit his stable job to co-found NVIDIA. Most people would see that as a huge risk. He didn’t. Jensen believed in himself and his co-founders. He trusted that even if NVIDIA failed, he would find something else—maybe something even better. The decision wasn’t a long debate. It wasn’t even a full dinner conversation. He later told Berkeley students that starting a company isn’t the life-or-death decision people make it out to be. What really matters is this: Do you love the people you’re working with? Do you love the work you’re doing? Do you love it enough to push through setbacks, failures, and bad days? Because there will be plenty of those. Most people hesitate to take big risks, fearing failure as if it’s permanent. But Jensen saw the bigger picture—when you believe in yourself and the work you do, there’s always another way forward. Success isn’t about avoiding failure. It’s about having the confidence to keep going. Follow Vishu Bheda for more valuable startup insights from the world's best founders!
