In 1994, a brilliant Wall Street analyst named Jeff Bezos noticed something that would change everything: the internet was growing at a mind-boggling 2,300% per year. Recognizing a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Bezos applied what he called his "regret minimization framework"-would he regret not jumping into this internet revolution when he was 80 years old? The answer led him to quit his lucrative job, drive cross-country to Seattle with his wife MacKenzie, and launch an online bookstore from his garage. Why books? They were the perfect starting point-standardized products with millions of titles no physical store could possibly stock. But Bezos wasn't just building a bookstore; he was laying the foundation for what he called "Earth's most customer-centric company." Those early days were defined by scrappy resourcefulness-desks made from doors purchased at Home Depot, team meetings at Barnes & Noble to study the industry they planned to disrupt, and Bezos's parents investing $100,000 of their retirement savings into a venture few believed would succeed. What's remarkable is how many elements of Amazon's future DNA were present from the beginning: the frugality, the relentless customer focus, and the willingness to think decades ahead rather than quarters. When choosing a company name, Bezos considered "Relentless.com" (try typing that into your browser even today) before settling on "Amazon"-named after the world's largest river, reflecting his ambition to create the world's largest store.
