Advice via Elon Musk
“One thing that Musk holds in the highest regard is resolve, and he respects people who continue after being told no.”
“‘I think there are probably too many smart people pursuing Internet stuff, finance, and law,’ Musk said on the way. ‘That is part of the reason why we haven’t seen as much innovation.”
“I would think back to this moment and it gave me confidence. All the bankers did was copy what everyone else did.”

“What Musk would not tolerate were excuses or the lack of a clear plan of attack.”
“When you interview, make sure you can talk concretely about what you do rather than use buzzwords.”
“I don’t want to be the person who ever has to compete with Elon. You might as well leave the business and find something else fun to do. He will outmaneuver you, outthink you, and out-execute you.”
