It’s highly unlikely that we find any billionaire who hasn’t struggled their way through problems to achieve success. Becoming wealthy is a goal and a dream for every startup founder, a professional or anybody. You might be thinking that reading inspiring quotes doesn’t make anybody wealthy, since they don’t tell complete stories, or blasted across publications for marketing purpose. But what I believe is that these inspirational words have power and words when used right can lay a strong impact on the reader or listener.
Digitization has brought content so handy and consumable, at the same time disruption and distraction. Netizens who daily scroll through social media and swipes Instagram carousels, doesn’t always mean that they actually get everything relevant in front to consume. Hence they get diverted easily and loose noteworthy content which they might find by scrolling further – but that’s not the solution, only increasing the screen-time without the deployment on keen concentration. Which is why we have especially drafted this listicle of inspiring quotes from billionaires to cater to everybody who’ve Googled their way here – whether looking for inspiring words from renowned entrepreneurs or to explore a list of various billionaires across the globe.
