Jensen Huang once said:

"Greatness comes from character. And character isn't formed out of smart people, it's formed out of people who suffered.”

Here are 9 things I learned from him:

1. "The world needs more dreamers and doers, not just talkers."

Society made victims, critics & cancel culture mainstream.

The builders are taking back the reigns. Anyone can be a snowflake.

It takes guts to build something and back yourself. It's the best meaning for your life.

2. “No task is beneath me — because, remember: I used to wash dishes.

I used to clean toilets. I cleaned a LOT of toilets. I’ve cleaned more toilets than all of you combined.”

Younger generations on TikTok misunderstand the importance of working hard & coming from nothing.

Wokeism infected their brains.

3. “If you want to do extraordinary things, it shouldn't be easy.”

F*ck easy.

Hard things make your mind stronger and take you further in life. Choose hard.

4. “The most powerful technologies are the ones that empower others.”

As opposed to political movements that disempower people.

When you use the internet to inspire people you can achieve impossible outcomes.

5. “Resilience matters in success.

I don’t know how to teach it to you, except for: I hope suffering happens to you .. because .. greatness comes from character.

And character isn’t formed out of smart people. It’s formed out of people who suffered.”

Choose suffering. Fall in love with it.

6. “Software is eating the world, but AI is going to eat software.”

If you don't understand and use AI, you're gonna go woke then broke.

AI is the future. It's going to remove BS tasks from our lives & force low value people to upgrade their skills.

7. "Unless you have a tolerance for failure, you will never experiment.

If you don't experiment you won't innovate, and if you don't innovate you won't succeed."

10,000 hours = Bullsh*t

Doing the same thing repeatedly without changing is called being an idiot. ITERATE.

8. “I really discourage 1-on-1s”

Stay the f*ck out of meetings if you want to get stuff done for the love of god.

Work with smart people & trust they'll get stuff done.

9. "Embrace the unknown and embrace change. That’s where true breakthroughs happen."

Take a risk or you'll be doing the same boring stuff for the rest of your life.

You could be dead tomorrow. Live like it.
