>I believe success is a matter of luck and ability. It is luck of your ability is valuable in the perfect time. For example. Would Bill Gates be rich if he was born 10 years earlier or later than he did? I

definitely not. 

> If he developed his OS earlier it would have been useless as the PC was not invented.

IBM would have beaten him to the race. 

>It is only by trying again and again,adapting your ideas will you be successful. But how successful depends on circumstances beyond your control

exactly.

IBM paid Bill Gates to create DOS for them. 
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/DOS

 I think Apple would have have been more successful longer.  How computer history would have changed if Apple computers beat the Wintel? Steve Jobs would not have been fired from Apple and he would have been CEO of Apple longer before he died.

This is what I'm saying about success and circumstances

many companies where doing advances around that point in time. I was reading a book somewhere that some systems were even at the level of windows but failed to be popularized due to poor understanding of the public. same as with blockchain today
