From ten years in this business; the two secrets to success: 1. People always underestimate the importance of “showing up” and doing what you said you would. 2. Keep showing up. Persistence is everything. This is a game of who can survive the longest.

Elon Musk on taking risks: “This is how civilizations decline. They quit taking risks. And when they quit taking risks, their arteries harden. Every year there are more referees and fewer doers. When you’ve had success for too long, you lose the desire to take risks.”
