These are quotes from the craziest people on earth, people who i admire about his work ethics. CEO and CO-Founder of two biggest company, SpaceX and Tesla Motors, CO-Founder of Zip2, X.com, PayPal, Hyperloop, OpenAI, Neuralink, and The Boring Company. He is Elon Reeve Musk.
“Persistence is very important. You should not give up unless you are force to give up.”
“Optimism, pessims, f*ck that. We’re going to make it happen. As God is my bloody witness, I’m hell bent on making it work. — in an interview, after third consecutive failure of Falcon 1 with spaceX on the brink of bankruptcy.”
“My mentality is that a samurai. I would rather seppuku than fail.”
“Work like hell. You just have to put in 80 to 100 hour weeks every week. This improves the odds of success. If others are putting in 40 hour work weeks and you’re putting in 100 hour work weeks, then even if you’re doing the same thing, you will achieve in 4 months what it takes them a year.”
“I could either watch it happen, or be part of it.”
“Good ideas are always crazy until they’re not.”
“If you get up in the morning and think the future is going to be better, it is a bright day. Otherwise, it’s not.”
“Failure is an option here. If things are not failing. You are not innovating enough.”
“Focus on signal over noise. Don’t waste time on stuff that doesn’t actually make things better.”
“They were building a Ferrari for every launch, when it was possible that a Honda Accord might do the trick.”
“Don’t confuse schooling with education. I didn't go to Harvard but the people that work for me did.”
“When I was in college, i wanted to be involved in things that would change the world. Now I am”
“The first step is to establish that something is possible. Then probability will occur.”
“People work better when they know what the goal is and why.”
“Really pay attention to negative feedback and solicit it, particularly from friends. Hardly anyone does that, and it’s incredibly helpful.”
“When something is important enough, you do it even if the odds are not in your favor.”
“I think it is possible for ordinary people to choose to be extraordinary.”
“You want to have a future where you're expecting things to be better, not one where you’re expecting things to be worse.”
“Your will is the most accurate way to predict the future.”
“If the rules are such that you can’t make progress, then you have to fight the rules.”
“You have to be pretty driven to make it happen. Otherwise, you will just make yourself miserable.”
“When you struggle with problem, that is when you understand it.”
