If the future does not include being out there among the stars and being a multi-planet species, I find that incredibly depressing. Elon Musk
13 – Constantly seek criticism. A well thought out critique of whatever you’re doing is as valuable as gold. Elon Musk

If other people are putting in 40 hour workweeks and you’re putting in 100 hour workweeks, then even if you’re doing the same thing, you know that you will achieve in four months what it takes them a year to achieve. Elon Musk

38 – The biggest mistake, in general, I’ve made, is to put too much of a weighting on someone’s talent and not enough on their personality. And I’ve made that mistake several times. I think it actually matters whether somebody has a good heart, it really does. I’ve made the mistake of thinking that it’s sometimes just about the brain. Elon Musk
39 – Starting a business is not for everyone. Starting a business – I’d say, number one is to have a high pain threshold. Elon Musk

ELON MUSK QUOTES
41 – People work better when they know what the goal is and why. It is important that people look forward to coming to work in the morning and enjoy working. Elon Musk
42 – I think people can choose to be not ordinary. You know, they can choose to not necessarily conform to the conventions that were taught to them by their parents. So, yes, I think it’s possible for ordinary people to choose to be extraordinary. Elon Musk
43 – I do think there is a lot of potential if you have a compelling product and people are willing to pay a premium for that. I think that is what Apple has shown. You can buy a much cheaper cell phone or laptop, but Apple’s product is so much better than the alternative, and people are willing to pay that premium. Elon Musk
44 – Failure is an option here. If things are not failing, you are not innovating enough. Elon Musk
45 – I say something, and then it usually happens. Maybe not on schedule, but it usually happens. Elon Musk
46 – Entrepreneurship is more like eating glass while staring at the abyss of death. Elon Musk
47- If you’re co-founder or CEO, you have to do all kinds of tasks you might not want to do… If you don’t do your chores, the company won’t succeed… No task is too menial. Elon Musk
48 – The value of beauty and inspiration is very much underrated, no question. But I want to be clear: I’m not trying to be anyone’s savior. I’m just trying to think about the future and not be sad. Elon Musk
49 – If you go back a few hundred years, what we take for granted today would seem like magic — being able to talk to people over long distances, to transmit images, flying, accessing vast amounts of data like an oracle. These are all things that would have been considered magic a few hundred years ago. Elon Musk
50 – I feel fear quite strongly. It’s not as though I just have the absence of fear. I feel it quite strongly. But there are times when something is important enough, you believe in it enough, that you do it in spite of the fear.
People shouldn’t think, ‘I feel fear about this, and therefore I shouldn’t do it.’ It’s normal to feel fear. There’d have to be something mentally wrong [with you] if you didn’t feel fear. If you just accept the probabilities, then that diminishes fear. Elon Musk
