Bill Gates is the richest man in the world, after founding Microsoft in 1975. He is now worth $90 billion as of 2018, as Microsoft has risen to create the number 1 operating system brand Windows, which has been re-developed several times. Microsoft also created Xbox, which has become one of the most popular, if not the most popular gaming system in the world.

1.Head First and Start First:

Do you know that Bill Gates learned coding at the age of 13 When you start something at an early age then you can get mold around it. He also started working at computers at the age of 13. That's why I mentioned this secret first. Instead playing in his early age he learned something useful. This has saved him a lot of time. When he grew up the world saw the arising of new technology that is modern computers. As he learned coding he became well versed in it when the world saw the arising of modern computer. So, he could prepare OS (Operating System) for it.

2.Become Boss soon as possible:

At a fairly early age he became boss. More than being Boss he took the advantage of success. Below here is a quote stated by Bill Gates:

"If you don’t build your dream, someone else will hire you to build theirs.” – Bill Gates.

3.Learn from your mistakes instead of blaming others:

Stop blaming others if a mistake is on you. Who are you trying to fool? It is you only. Instead others learn from your mistakes. Don't whine about your mistake. The knowledge you learn from mistakes as a high amount of significance in your life.

4.Be passionate and committed:

You need to be committed to what you love and have great passion for what you do. When you are passionate about what they are doing they will achieve what they want soon. Be dedicative. Don't lose your passion in your work. When you lose your passion and eager in a work you will find it boring. So, don't lose your passion and commitment in your work.

5.Be nice to the nerds:

The people who you consider nerds are the person who would work hard than you think. The nerds are determined to succeed and they are smart. They will work for you more productively because they want to earn more money and achieve soon in their life. Below here is a quote stated by Bill Gates:

“Be nice to nerds. Chances are you’ll end up working for one.” – Bill Gates.

6. You Will Not Make $100,000 a Year Right out of High School :

You can't make $100000 a year out of High School. No matter how much education you have, you still need experience to work your way at the top. You won’t get appointed CEO of a multi-national company just because you have a degree in business management. It requires a lot of experience, handwork and learning.

7.Use a litmus test for your time:

You should be always focus on your work even though you are focused there will be many distractions which will distract you from your task or work.. If you find yourself pulled in different directions, get rid of some of your activities. When you are doing a task, ask yourself if it is in support of your focus. If it’s not, let it go. If it is, make sure there isn’t another activity that would support your focus even more strongly. You may not end up as wealthy as Warren Buffet or Bill Gates, but having a sincere focus on what you are trying to accomplish -- combined with a perseverance to stick with it day in and day out -- will make for an incredibly successful you.
