A friend of mine who's got a good saying which is that starting a company is like eating glass and then staring into the abyss.

When you first start a company, there's lots of optimism.

And things are great.

And then so happiness at first is high, then you encounter all sorts of issues.

And happiness will steadily decline.

When my brother and I were starting our first company, instead of getting an apartment, we just rented a small office and we slept on the couch.

We had just one computer so the website was up during the day.

And I was coding at night, seven days a week all the time.

If you succeed and in most cases you will not succeed, and Tesla almost didn't succeed came very close to failure.

I don't ever give up.

I mean I'd have to be dead or completely incapacitated.

If you're trying to do something new, it's the best way to think.

Now is the time to take risk.

SpaceX has announced an ambitious plan to send an unmanned capsule to Mars.

Bringing the company's CEO Elon Musk one step closer to his dream of colonizing the Red Planet.

Work hard like I mean every waking hour.

That's the thing I would say, if you're, particular if you're starting a company.

And then just work like hell.

I mean you just have to put in you know 80 hour, 80 to 100 hour weeks every week.

Other people are putting in 40-hour work weeks and you're putting in 100 hour work weeks,

then even if you're doing the same thing, you know that in one year you will achieve in four months what it takes them a year to achieve.

Whatever area that you get into, given that you know even if you're the best the best, there's always a chance of failure.

So I think it's important that you really like whatever you're doing if you don't like it, life is too short.

You know I'd say.

And also, if you like whatever you're doing, you think about it even when you're not working.

I mean, it'll just it's it's something that your mind is drawn to and and if you don't like it, you just really can't make it work, I think.

If you succeed then after a long time you will finally get back to happiness
