Minecraft: Rejected, Then Legendary

I bet you don't know about this Minecraft was rejected by every single investor when it

was first pitched. Nobody believed in it. The game looked too blocky,

too simple, too weird. So Notch funded it himself and released it anyway.

Within months, players were obsessed. Fast forward to 2014, Microsoft bought

Minecraft for two point five billion dollars. That's billion with a B.

The game those investors passed on became the best selling video game of all time with over 300

million copies sold. It beat Tetris. It crushed Grand Theft Auto. All because one

guy refused to give up on his weird blocky vision. Never let rejection stop your dreams.
