40 days ago1/ Success rarely happens overnight. It takes patience, persistence, and time. No one shows you the struggles behind the scenes — just the highlight reel. Jack Ma’s journey is a perfect example.
2/ Jack Ma grew up in Hangzhou, China, facing many rejections early on. He failed his university entrance exam twice, was rejected from 30 jobs (including KFC), and even got turned down by Harvard 10 times.
3/ Instead of giving up, Jack used rejection as fuel. He believed in his vision and kept pushing. This resilience is a key reason success takes time—it’s about learning and growing from failure.
4/ In 1999, Jack founded Alibaba with 17 friends in his apartment. For the first 3 years, the company didn’t make a profit. Many doubted the idea of e-commerce in China back then.
5/ Despite the challenges, Jack focused on the long-term. He once said Alibaba’s goal was to last 102 years. He wasn’t chasing quick wins but building something sustainable.
6/ It wasn’t until 2014—15 years after founding Alibaba—that Jack Ma became globally recognized, when Alibaba had the largest IPO ever, raising \$25 billion.
7/ Jack often says:
"Today is hard, tomorrow will be worse, but the day after tomorrow will be sunshine."
Success takes time, so don’t give up too soon.
8/ The takeaway? Success is a journey, not a race. Time, resilience, and vision turn early struggles into lasting achievements.
