Because he didnโ€™t want anything to take his mind off Microsoft. Back in the 1980s, when Microsoft was still small, Bill gave journalist Michael Moritz a ride to the airport. Moritz noticed there was no radio and asked why. Billโ€™s answer? โ€œ๐ˆ๐Ÿ ๐ˆโ€™๐ฏ๐ž ๐ ๐จ๐ญ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐ซ๐š๐๐ข๐จ, ๐ˆโ€™๐ฆ ๐š๐Ÿ๐ซ๐š๐ข๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐š๐ญ ๐ˆโ€™๐ฅ๐ฅ ๐ฌ๐ฐ๐ข๐ญ๐œ๐ก ๐ข๐ญ ๐จ๐ง ๐š๐ง๐ ๐ˆ ๐ฐ๐จ๐งโ€™๐ญ ๐›๐ž ๐ญ๐ก๐ข๐ง๐ค๐ข๐ง๐  ๐š๐›๐จ๐ฎ๐ญ ๐Œ๐ข๐œ๐ซ๐จ๐ฌ๐จ๐Ÿ๐ญ.โ€ Moritz called it obsession. And he was right. This wasnโ€™t just about staying focused. It was about making sure every thought, every moment, went into building Microsoft. Thatโ€™s the difference between good founders and great ones. Success doesnโ€™t come from working hard once in a while. It comes from shaping your entire life around your mission. So ask yourself: ๐–๐ก๐š๐ญโ€™๐ฌ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ซ๐š๐๐ข๐จ? And are you willing to remove it?
