inspirational lessons tough
Patience is a virtue, and I'm learning patience. It's a tough lesson.
inspirational morning goal
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.
inspirational technology impact
I would like to die on Mars. Just not on impact.
inspirational eggs long
It's OK to have your eggs in one basket as long as you control what happens to that basket.
inspirational cake trying
If you're trying to create a company, it's like baking a cake. You have to have all the ingredients in the right proportion.
inspirational crush mean
Yeah, well I think anyone who likes fast cars will love the Tesla. And it has fantastic handling by the way. I mean this car will crush a Porsche on the track, just crush it. So if you like fast cars, you'll love this car. And then oh, by the way, it happens to be electric and it's twice the efficiency of a Prius.
inspirational college world
When I was in college, I wanted to be involved in things that would change the world.
inspirational enlightenment strive
Really, the only thing that makes sense is to strive for greater collective enlightenment.
inspirational heart thinking
Weighing too much on someone's talent and not someone's personality. I think it matters whether someone has a good heart.
inspirational life-is-too-short long
Life is too short for long-term grudges.
inspirational trying important
If something's important enough, you should try. Even if you - the probable outcome is failure.
inspirational success crazy
When something is important enough, you do it even if the odds are not in your favor.
inspirational engineering problem
I don't spend my time pontificating about high-concept things; I spend my time solving engineering and manufacturing problems.
inspirational jobs mistake
It is a mistake to hire huge numbers of people to get a complicated job done. Numbers will never compensate for talent in getting the right answer (two people who don't know something are no better than one), will tend to slow down progress, and will make the task incredibly expensive.
