In this interview excerpt, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang emphasizes that his success stems from 61 years of relentless hard work, dismissing any notion of magic or shortcuts. When asked about his reputation among colleagues, he acknowledges being demanding and a perfectionist, asserting that such rigor is necessary for achieving extraordinary results. The dialogue highlights Huang's belief that extraordinary achievements are inherently difficult and require a tough, exacting work environment.

It is the most extraordinary thing, Bill, that a normal dishwasher busboy could grow up to be this. There's no magic. It's just 61 years of hard work every single day. I don't think there's anything more than that.
Let me tell you what some of the people who you work with said about you. Demanding, perfectionist, not easy to work for. All that sound right?
Perfectly, yeah. It should be like that. If you want to do extraordinary things, it shouldn't be easy.
Again, in our business, there's so many people who have had success. Why do you not think you deserve it?
