Maye Musk Maye Musk on Elon Elon Musk: "He's very sweet and he's brilliant. He just has ideas that, you know, I can give you a story. So I was having breakfast with his kids...15 years ago. And, he came down from the stairs late for breakfast, and he's tired. And I said, 'Oh, you look tired.' He says, 'Well, I didn't sleep last night.' I said, 'Oh, what were you doing?' And he says, 'I designed a rocket.' And I said, 'Oh, OK. Would you like scrambled eggs?' I mean, what do you -- how do you answer? 'I designed a rocket.' And he did... It's incredible."

Maye Musk Maye Musk talks about the difficulties of raising Elon Elon Musk : “I would say from the age of 3, I thought that he was a genius. He would reason with me, and his reasoning was sensible. And how do you even do that if you don't really have much experience? I wanted him to go to nursery school. They said, 'Well, he makes it by 2 days, but you really should keep him back a year, because otherwise he'll be a little socially challenged.' And I said, 'You don't understand! I have a genius son. He needs to talk to someone besides me. And of course they rolled their eyes because every mother thinks that their child is a genius.”

Elon Musk Elon Musk on the importance of physics: “I am a big believer in physics. Everything else is a recommendation, pretty much, but physics is the law. Like if you break physics... the rocket will explode and the car will not work. So you have to adhere to physics in order to make cars that work, to make rockets that work, to make space internet work. Because if you're wrong, then reality is a very harsh judge. Reality is merciless. Because if you make a device that doesn't work, violates physics, it simply doesn't work, and then you rocket blows up and the satellites don't work and the cars break. In order to make the technology work, you must have an extremely rigorous pursuit of the truth. Because, otherwise reality will bite you in the a**.”

Maye Musk Maye Musk on how Elon Elon Musk is special: "From the age of 3, he could reason with me. And then, once he could start reading, he could remember everything he read, encyclopedias. We called him 'my genius boy.' But you know, geniuses can be in a basement working genius things, but they don't have the ability to actually implement it. And he does, which is very special. Elon surprises us every time when he says he's going to do something. When he said to me, 'I'm going to put satellites in the air so that people who are in the forest, or on hills, or in the middle of the ocean can be saved, it will save lives,' and now, it's saving lives around the world."

Elon Musk Elon Musk on being him: “I think when I was 5 or 6 or something, I thought I was insane. It was just strange. Because it was clear that other people did not - their minds weren't exploding with ideas. It was like, 'Hmm, I'm strange.' I don't think you necessarily want to be me. It's very hard to turn it off. It's like a never-ending explosion. All the time.”

Elon Musk Elon Musk on how failures shouldn't stop you from achieving your goals: “I certainly lost many battles. So far, I've not lost a war, but I've certainly lost many battles. Tesla came many times close to bankruptcy. I gave basically SpaceX and Tesla from the beginning a probability of less than 10% of likely to succeed... We almost did die at SpaceX, actually... If you want to try to come up with an innovative breakthrough, that's going to be how it is. Anything which is significantly innovative is going to come with a significant risk of failure. You've got to take big chances in order for the potential for the big positive outcome. If the outcome is exciting enough, then taking a big risk is worthwhile... Then, when the executing down a path, I actually do my absolute best to reduce risk...to improve the probability of the success.”

Elon Musk's Elon Musk Five Step Improvement Process: 1. First, make your requirements less dumb. 2. Try very hard to delete the part of the process. 3. Only the third step is to simplify or optimize. 4. Accelerate cycle time. 5. Automate "Everyone's wrong. No matter who you are. Everyone's wrong some of the time. The most common error of a smart engineer is to optimize a thing that should not exist. I have personally made a mistake of going backwards on all 5 steps. Multiple times." Elon is so real & authentic! 💯🙏
