Bill Gates was a shy and quiet boy who loved spending time in his room

reading books for hours. he grew up as an introverted and antisocial kid.

In high school, his original plan was to teach math. But that was until his
friend Paul Allen convinced him to pursue career in computer
programming. So Bill Gates quickly took his advice and wrote his first
computer program at the age of 13. But his parents were not very happy,
they had other plans for their child. They wanted him to pursue a law
career. So to make his parents happy, he went to Harvard to study law.
But he found himself spending more time on a computer than in class.
And that was because He was really happy when he was coding and law
was not something that excited him. So it was time for a bold move. He
dropped out of Harvard University to pursue his dream and formed
Microsoft with his childhood friend Paul Allen. But everything wasn't
going perfect. At first the company struggled financially. Some of their big
clients went bankrupt. So Bill Gates faced many challenges and
obstacles on his path to success. One of those challenges was Windows
1.0. Young bill Gates predicted that after it's release Windows will be
running on 90 % of all computers. But he was wrong. Windows was
received poorly by critics, and only 10% of computers ended using it.
And that was not even close to what Bill Gates was expecting. He was
disappointed. It was a big setback, but also a stepping stone for
Microsoft. After Two years of hard work and long hours Windows 2 was
released. Big innovations were included, Microsoft Word and Excel were
presented for the first time.So Windows Became a huge commercial
success and revolutionized the world. Finally 90% of computers were
using Windows. Bill Gates Became a Billionaire at the age of 31 and at
the age of 39 he became the richest man in the world. Bill Gates is one
of the most successful people in the world, and there's a lot that can be
learned from his success story. "Success is a lousy teacher. It seduces
smart people into thinking they can't lose" - Bill Gates "If you don't build
your dreams, someone else will hire you to build theirs." - Bill Gates
