This Made Julius Caesar Cry

Julius Caesar is one of the most accomplished leaders in history.

But there’s a famous story about him as a 33 year old, weeping because he’d accomplished so little compared to Alexander the Great at the same age 😢

In case you can relate, here are a couple of lists of entrepreneurs who had accomplished “nothing” by age 30.

Including…

  • Jack Dorsey, Twitter – 30 years old
  • J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter empire – 32 years old
  • Jan Koum, WhatsApp – 33 years old
  • Caterina Fake, Flickr – 33 years old
  • Sam Walton, WalMart – 44 years old
  • Arianna Huffington, The Huffington Post – 55 years old
  • Henry Ford, Ford Motor Company – 40 years old
  • Clara Barton, American Red Cross – 60 years old
  • Mark Cuban, MicroSolutions – 32 years old
