Steve Jobs, the co-founder of Apple

History is littered with countless examples of individuals who have made the courageous decision to quit their jobs and pursue an alternative path.

Steve Jobs, the co-founder of Apple is but one.

In 1985, Jobs was forced out of the company he had helped to create. Rather than giving up, he used this setback as an opportunity to start a new venture called NeXT.

Jobs developed key technologies at NeXT that later contributed to Apple’s success, such as the NeXTSTEP OS, which evolved into Mac OS

When Apple acquired NeXT in 1997, Jobs returned to the company as CEO and led it to unprecedented heights of success.

Jobs’ decision to leave Apple and start NeXT was brave, but ultimately it paid off in ways he could never have imagined.

His willingness to take risks and pursue his vision, even in the face of adversity, changed his fortune and the course of the entire technology industry.

The story of Steve Jobs is just one example of how fortune favors the brave.
