The Power of Mentorship

It's really great to have a mentor, someone that really knows what they're doing and that has worked.

Understanding the business is the first priority.

Find Where You Can Help

My main business has been making a difference where I can and when I can and spotting it and going for it.

Paying Taxes Is an Honor

I tried to pay less taxes. In the next two years, my taxes were nothing - I didn't make anything. You got to make money to pay. Pay all the taxes you can, because you get to keep the balance. It's an honor to be able to create money and then pay taxes.

Plan for the Best

Live Below Your Means

I don't have jewelry. I fly private, but I don't own a jet. I really don't overspend. I always have enough money so that if things go wrong in the company, I can fund it.

Be Optimistic, Stay Hungry

Be optimistic about the future. You always think the times you're living in are the worst, but they're never the worst. Be optimistic and futuristic, but understand that optimism cannot bet itself. Work hard, stay focused on your vision, and above all, stay hungry - and you'll succeed.

Saving Is a Discipline

Save! Saving is extremely important. That's how I started. You earn a dollar and tell yourself, “It's just a dollar - I can't save anything.” But when you earn a billion dollars, you still won't save anything. Discipline is so important. Develop the discipline of saving: earn a dollar, save some cents.

Extraordinary People Look Crazy at First

When you do extraordinary things - things people aren't used to - they may think you're stupid. But if you're committed, disciplined, focused, and know what you're doing, you'll get there.

Grow an Ecosystem, Not Just an Empire

You can't be the only tree in the forest.

There's no reason to live in so much openness and affluence when your neighbors are begging for food.

It's not how much we have in our bank balances that's important. It's about impact, it's about legacy.

The next frontier: Artificial Intelligence, energy sufficiency, food sufficiency, and agriculture.

When preparation meets luck, opportunity appears.

Prepare for Luck

I often preach luck, but you have to be prepared. If you're not prepared when luck comes your way, you won't even recognize the opportunity.

Progress Requires Discipline

Without hard work, I can't make progress. Without discipline, I won't make progress. If I don't make sacrifices today for a better tomorrow, I won't make progress. If I don't defer my consumption today, I won't make progress. Those were the things that helped me.

Attributes, that made me who I am today: 1) Hard work, 2) Discipline, 3) Deferred gratification and consumption.

Dream Without Limits

Neuroplasticity - brains continue to change and evolve. You can achieve anything as long as you have agency, optimism, and the ability to dream.
