Elon Musk has built rockets, electric cars, and a satellite internet network. Whether or not you agree with him, his ideas about ambition, failure, and purpose challenge conventional thinking.
When something is important enough, you do it even if the odds are not in your favor.
Failure is an option here. If things are not failing, you are not innovating enough.
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.
