Bill Gates Says He Now Asks 4 Questions That He Would Never Have Asked at Age 25
Bill Gates is now 63. He fully acknowledges he’s not the same person he was when he founded Microsoft to put a “computer on every desk and in every home.”
To assess his quality of life, Gates asks himself different questions that we should be asking ourselves as we age–different from those of our youth.
In his final 2018 blog post on Gates Notes, he said that he still assesses the quality of his work, but the questions are very different from the ones he would have asked in his 20s. Here they are:
- Did I devote enough time to my family?
- Did I learn enough new things?
- Did I develop new friendships and deepen old ones?
- Do the people you care about love you back?”
Basically, when you get to my age, you’ll really measure your success in life by how many of the people you want to have love you actually do love you. That’s the ultimate test of how you have lived your life. The trouble with love is that you can’t buy it. But the only way to get love is to be lovable. The more you give love away, the more you get.
Such great counsel from our founder. Read more of his talk here Bill Gates Says He Now Asks 4 Questions That He Would Never Have Asked at Age 25 | Inc.com
