If you have read my story on the previous page and think it is just about mathematics, please read again.
Because it is just as much about, in random order:
- Having a clear view of the future;
- Not being afraid to fail;
- Being at the forefront of something new and beneficial;
- Making mistakes, trying again and again and in the end getting it done;
- Not being afraid to go against real experts who will judge you;
- Not giving up when it gets really difficult;
- Not being afraid of not knowing and asking other people for help;
- Learning a lot of enriching stuff in the process;
- Not stopping where others with more means have failed;
- Working very, very hard to get something done;
- In the end reaping the benefits of all the above.
The crazy thing is: I only realized all of the above later, after pondering over it.
Maybe this, seeing it all happening at Tesla, is why I have so much faith in the Tesla people and their CEO who stimulates all of it.
