Andrew Carnegie, who was an American business magnate, was one of the richest people in history. His life story is captivating and a classic example of the American Dream. He was the son of a migrant, he worked in many industries and later built one of the most successful business empires of all time.
The people as well as the government were suspicious of Carnegie’s success since his growth was so exponential. The US Senate even interrogated him about how he handled and ran his business.
He said, “I can keep my mind focused on something for five minutes at a stretch.” The members thought it was simple and Carnegie set up an experiment, but they couldn’t even hold their attention for a few seconds.
In fact, it was his ability to give his undivided attention to things that helped him grow exponentially.
I was reading a blog today and found this interesting story of Andrew Carnegie who’s always been among my favourite entrepreneurs of all time.
Today I’m extending my gratitude to the author of the blog who introduced the story to me.
