Live Today With Passion - Elon Musk: "Now is the time to take risk you don't have yeah you don't have you don't have
kids your obligation to all seven joint
probably don't fit that's the but but as you as you get older your obligations
increase so you and once you have a family you start taking risk not just
for yourself but for your family as well it gets much harder to do things that
might not work out so now is the time to do that before you before you have those
obligations so I would encourage you to take risks now to do something bold you
won't regret it the chain-store bug had already bitten
me and it wasn't long as soon as I could afford at all
kiss hearted casting around for another location and where did where was that
Fayetteville on the square it was at little 18 foot stolen 1950 1952
we got the sword plant bill started dinner
good and he became very successful so then one day I got a call from Ben
Franklin and they said hey we got a store in Kansas City and you remember
the story certainly do y'all and I thought well if I've got it if I've got
to go to Kansas see I got to get me an airplane and I didn't I had never flown
probably first looked at it in 53 I'd say and this was our first venture in
the shopping center and they were practically no shopping centers in that
truth that's exactly right and this was something entirely new and different
everybody was skittish of it no one else wanted the friendship really one another
one of those situations and let's say well I'll take half of it I think I can
put put enough money together to get half of it I said well if you can out
I'll try to do my part and we'll grow up there and we'll just take another gamble
sure right it it was a gamble it was out 20 miles from the Kansas City City
Limits time we got to store open why it was a winner for the day we all how many
it was it was the best profit store I know one year it made $30,000 we got to
aspect more money than read everything herder
ever dreamed about being able to make out of one store he moves to the inside
line going towards the first corner I just chase him then and he open again
and knowing me like he does know he must realize that if there was a gap I was
going to try to predict something in the head and under those circumstances he
should never have open a gap in the first column and come back again because
by doing so he opened the gap gave the gap and then closed it and in that
sequence that there was no way to avoid an incident right but that only happened
there I think because you saw the gap and I accept that you're a racer but
amateur racer has to also think if he closes a door again we were going to
have an accident and in fact there was a high-speed entry so it could have been a
very serious accident so wouldn't it not have been more prudent under those
circumstances to have at least seen that the gap was potentially going to close
not at all he was in a position where he could
never under no circumstance put his car anywhere near mine in a difficult
position because if we happen just to touch just to touch and have a wing
damage or a wheel flat tire he had everything to lose so and under those
circumstances my understanding was that he would never move against me in the
first corner and I was very surprised when I found myself with him moving the
car over mine so in that case she was calculating that he would give way that
he would let me through of course he would not close the way he
did from the moment he made the initial room he would not come back and close
the door again a calculated risk of course risk
there is no chance to evolve and progress without taking risk I feel like
it's the necessary element to self development you know like it's the key
to living life to the fullest brisk according to Webster is the chance of
injury damage loss the failure of your expectations but I realized that it's
also the opportunity to learn and gain the fulfillment of your desires and
dreams when I think of risk or just what risk means I feel like I might think of
being afraid or really risk is a way to overcome what you fear you can be afraid
to risk something or everything because you don't want to lose what you have
because you're afraid you may fail I think you can't handle it or whatever
the case you'll spend so much energy and time trying to keep what you have
instead of progressing into something new everything changes nothing stays the
same forever nothing from business to personal everything in between I
realized that you can't be afraid a lot of us aren't all the way satisfied but
I'm scared to lose security in what we do have like I might not be able to get
a better job or a better partner etc or even as bad as prison is you know
there are people who don't want to leave because they're afraid of what's on the
outside or being able to succeed the number one thing I got to remind myself
sometimes and remember is that life is here not to survive but to live it up
you know to expand to grow
when you settle for what's familiar or safe is because we forget that God is
our security God is creating martyrs and that's the only security you know you
could try and find security in people and jobs or anything man-made but
there's no point because everything is designed to change including you we want
like memories I want to need you can keep quiet
most people who have successfully taken risk and succeeded have failed to but
the point is you learn from every lesson you learn from every risk change is
always exciting it's always exciting when you know God is involved the world
is designed for change they'll never be afraid to take risks
whatever it takes to get you to try harder read more set your goals and go
for it here's the next attitude disease over caution some people never will have
much they're too cautious now you can also be too reckless but you can also be
too cautious this is called the timid approach to life and my caution was
always the risk risk is to drive me right up the wall
I used to say what if this happens it's called the language of the poor what if
this happens and on top of that if this was to happen look at the fix I be and I
better not try I could always take myself out then I'll tell you what
changed my whole life when I finally discovered it's all risky the minute you
were born it got risky if you think trying is risky wait till they hand you
the bill for not trying if you think investing is risky wait till you get the
tab for not investing see it's all risky get married is risky having children is
risky going into business is risky investing your money is risky it's all
risky I'll tell you how risky life is you're not going to get out alive
that's risky the Englishman says well if that's the way it's going to work out
let's give it a go right that's what it's for give it a go somebody says yeah
but I'm looking for safety and security fine then huddling a coroner will cover
you with a sheet bring you three meals a day and we'll protect you
feed you look after you care for you we won't let anything happen to you and
you'll probably live to be 100 the guy said well yeah I'd live to be 100 but
what a way to live right what a way to live safe and secure don't ask for
security ask for that venture better to live 30 years full of adventure than 100
years safe in the corners and see it's not important how long you live what's
important is how you live here's the next attitude disease we're almost
through with this monthly list in fact we're almost through hang on
the next one is pessimism pessimism the deadly disease of always looking on the
bad side the problem side the difficult side checking all the reasons why I
can't be done the poor pessimist leads an ugly life he
doesn't try to figure out what's right he tries to figure out what's wrong he
doesn't look for virtue he looks for fault and when he finds him he's
delighted how this is the poor guy looks through the window doesn't see the
sunset he sees the specks on the wind
and this is the poor guy right who rushes up takes us leave of his senses
this guy rushes up and he says I've got five good reasons why it won't work he's
so dumb he doesn't know all he needs one he's got 5 - the pessimist the glass is
always half-empty - the optimist the glass is half-full why would the same
measure affect people two different ways answer it all depends on how you look at
it our lives are mostly affected by the way
we think things are not the way they are the way we think they are affects us
knows there's a subject we don't have time to get into tonight called better
thinking habits one of the major things Shope taught me when I met him he said
poor thinking habits keeps most people poor and not poor working habits most
people work hard but they don't think hard and show taught me that the mind is
like a factory on mental factory and whatever you think about all day long
pours ingredients into this mental Factory and that's what builds the
economic social financial fabric of your life he quoted me a bible phrase that
says as you think so you become how awesome when he talked about poor
thinking habits he had me I used to start the day reading the morning
newspaper I mean you can believe that or not I'd get a cup of coffee and read the
paper I'd load up on wars and riots and murders and stabbings and killings and
bank robberies and muggings and car wrecks and tragedy I'd even read the
back pages I seem to like that stuff for some weird reason I'd let up on all that
and then I start today you can imagine the kind of days I used to have
you walk around on your financial needs they call you economic peewee the guy
says I want to be a great leader wonderful the first thing we do is
following to his house when we get there we walk in and check his library number
one somebody says well why check his library the reason is because what a man
reads pours massive ingredients into his mental factory and the fabric of his
life is built from those ingredients you would not believe what some people have
got in their house to read you would not believe one of the best rest of words I
know for a lot of it is trash can you imagine dumping a bill of trash into
this mental factory every day and coming out with a rich dynamic positive life it
can't be done you might as well try making a cake with cement the kids back
in Danbury Connecticut high school they're asking me questions one day I'm
talking to the kids kids got good questions you think one of them said to
me mr. Owen how do you build the good life I said it's simple it's not easy
but it's simple here's how you build anything select the right ingredients
keep out the wrong ingredients and it starts with thought everything starts
with thought so you must be Y and careful what you think about because
that starts everything
you gotta be why and here I asked the kids what would happen if somebody
dropped sugar in my coffee they said well you'd be okay I said what if
somebody dropped strychnine in my coffee they said well you'd be dead
I said correct lesson 1 life is both sugar and strychnine you gotta be
careful I said what is my worst enemy drops in
the sugar they said would you be okay I said what if my best friend even my
accident drops in the strychnine they said well you'd be dead I said correct
lesson to watch your car you got to be careful see it doesn't matter who hands
you the bad stuff it doesn't matter where you get the bad stuff it'll still
do its damage on your bank account wherever you get it mister shelf gave me
one of the greatest phrases when I first met him when he said Jim every day stand
guard at the door of your mind how important stand guard at the door of
your mind and you decide what goes into your
mental factory don't let anybody just dump anything they want to in your
mental factory because you've got to live with the results okay here's the
last disease and we're through with this list in fact we're almost through
Pangolin the last subject is very brief the last disease but this one is deadly
engage in this one indulge in it even slightly and you might as well forget
the future because it's going to forget you complaining
crying crying griping a Bible word called murmuring see that will ace your
future spend five minutes complaining and you have wasted five and you may
have begun what's known as economic cancer of the bone surely they will soon
haul you off into a financial desert and there let you choke on the dust of your
own regret I hope I said that well so you won't forget it's a deadly disease
if you don't think it's bad ask the children of Israel of Old Testament fame
typical of us all their story just happened to get in the book story says
children of Israel were slaves God performed a series of dazzling miracles
and got them out and now they're heading for the promised land remember the story
headin for the promised land tragedy of the story they never got
their reason from day one they started to complain they griped about the water
they griped about the weather they find and cried and griped about the food they
griped about the leadership they've whined and cried because it was too far
too cold too hot too difficult too miserable I mean they widened wined and
cried for years finally God said I've had it canceled
or something like that the story says they died in the desert never got to the
promised look which i think means two things indulging this long enough you
get your future camp and I guess it also means even God Himself can only take so
much okay just be on the lookout of the things that can destroy all the good you
start the war is on and this evening tomorrow mentally personally socially
economically you got to make sure you're winning the war and this is part of it
