I would like to share 36 successquotes from Elon Musk as like below:

enough, you do it even if the odds are not in your favor."
2. "Some people don't like change,
but you need to embrace change if the alternative is disaster."
3. "Failure is an option here. If
things are not failing, you are not innovating enough."
4. "Persistence is very important.

5. "I think it's very important to

10. "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."
11. "I say something, and then it
usually happens. Maybe not on schedule, but it usually happens."
12. "I don't spend my time
pontificating about high-concept things; I spend my time solving engineering

in the companies that I create. I don't believe in the whole thing of just

people to invest in something if I'm not prepared to do so myself."
14. "My biggest mistake is probably

that something is possible; then probability will occur."

that have to occur in order for a new technology to be affordable to the mass
market. One is you need economies of scale. The other is you need to iterate on
the design. You need to go through a few versions."
19. "Talent is extremely important.
It's like a sports team, the team that has the best individual player will
often win, but then there's a multiplier from how those players work together
and the strategy they employ."
20. "I've actually not read any
books on time management."

negative feedback and solicit it, particularly from friends. ... Hardly anyone
does that, and it's incredibly helpful."

and think the future is going to be better, it is a bright day. Otherwise, it's
not."
23. "What makes innovative thinking
happen?... I think it's really a mindset. You have to decide."
24. "People should pursue what
they're passionate about. That will make them happier than pretty much anything
else."
25. "I wouldn't say I have a lack
of fear. In fact, I'd like my fear emotion to be less because it's very
distracting and fries my nervous system."

company, it's like baking a cake. You have to have all the ingredients in the
right proportion."

bad solution."
35. "If something has to be
designed and invented, and you have to figure out how to ensure that the value
of the thing you create is greater than the cost of the inputs, then that is
probably my core skill."
36. "I always have optimism, but
I'm realistic. It was not with the expectation of great success that I started
Tesla or SpaceX... It's just that I thought they were important enough to do
anyway."
