These steps are manageable and sustainable, allowing for gradual growth without the burnout that comes with trying to do everything at once.

2- Apple, The Humble Beginning of a Tech Giant
In 1976, Steve Jobs, Ronald Wayne and Steve Wozniak started Apple in Jobs’ garage with the simple idea of making personal computers more accessible to the everyday consumers
First product they made was, the Apple I, it was a hand-built computer kit that didn’t include a monitor or keyboard — just a circuit board.
In 1977, Apple launched the Apple II, one of the first highly successful mass-produced personal computers.
This was a turning point for the company, as it introduced color graphics and an easy-to-use interface, setting Apple apart from its competitors.
But the journey of Apple was not always too much easy. In 1985 when Sir Steve Jobs left Apple company it was a great loss for the company but despite the setback Apple pushed the boundaries to the technology.
in 1985 Steve Jobs made a comeback and he revolutionized the tech industry this time instead of personal computers his focus was to make iPhones, iPods and iPads.
And by the time Apple kept making advancements in their business and by the time Apple has not only grown into a tech giant but also established a monopoly in areas like mobile operating systems and premium consumer electronics.
3- Starbucks: A Single Store to a Global Empire
Starbucks began as a small coffee shop in Seattle in 1971, by the founders Jerry Baldwin, Zev Siegl, and Gordon Bowker.
They didn’t serve brewed coffee at first. Their idea was simple, to bring good coffee to Seattle by selling high-quality coffee beans.
In 1982, Howard Schultz joined and changed the focus from selling coffe beans to serving brewed coffee like Italian cafes at that time
Slowly expanding from one store to many, Starbucks became a place where people could enjoy coffee and relax.
Today, it has grown into a global coffee brand with over 30,000 stores, showing how a small start can lead to a big and worldwide success.
