Elon Musk
Work like hell. I mean you just have to put in 80 to 100 hour weeks every week. [This] improves the odds of success.

Elon Musk
Does the logic connect? What are the range of probably outcomes? You want to figure out what those probabilities are and ideally be the House. It's fine to gamble, as long as you're the House. Also, listen to critical feedback, particularly from friends. Generally they will be thinking it but they won't tell you.
Elon Musk
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.
