Martin Lewis, founder of MoneySavingExpert. com, on the four things it takes to be really successful, and why the most important one isn't what you'd expect: He opens with a clear framework: "It takes four things to be really successful. Talent, you've all got it, as do many more people than you think. Hard work. If you want to be really successful, you're going to have to work hard. Focus. Zone in on what you're good at." On focus, he pushes back against the idea that you need to be exceptional at everything: "Understand, none of us are unfailingly brilliant at everything. So, find the thing that you're good at and zone in on that. And that is what will create your success." But the fourth factor is where his message turns unexpected: "The most important thing is luck. You can do everything right, but it still not work for you. And you need to know that now." This reframes how he wants people to think about setbacks: "Failing does not make you a failure. Do not judge yourself. See it as a way to learn and to give yourself a better opportunity the next time." Martin Lewis then challenges a common assumption about what success actually delivers: "Success can be stressful. Success is not a synonym for happiness. As you go through your working careers, at sometimes you may want to make a call. Do I continue to push that hard or do I smile at what I've got and enjoy happiness and the other things that life starts to give me?" He closes with a message aimed at those who do make it big: "One or two of you in here will make it really big. If that's you, remember of those four things, the most important one is luck. And that means if you're that super successful one in the room, you have a moral duty to give back."

This evening, the Minister of Transport and Infrastructural Development, Hon. Adv. F.T. Mhona, delivered the Keynote Address at the Welcome Dinner held in honour of Air Zimbabwe's Harare–London Gatwick Flights Celebration, at The Cumberland Hotel, Marble Arch, London, marking the national carrier's return to direct flights between the two cities after a 16-year hiatus. Addressing guests, Hon. Mhona described the milestone as the most visible expression of Zimbabwe's re-engagement agenda, manifested in the skies, noting that the restored route will strengthen trade, investment, tourism and people-to-people ties between Zimbabwe, the United Kingdom and Europe. The Minister said the flight, which touched down at Gatwick Airport at 08:10AM, carried more than passengers, but renewed friendship, restored confidence and reciprocal opportunity. Hon. Mhona paid tribute to the United Kingdom Civil Aviation Authority for the thorough and equitable process that culminated in the granting of the Foreign Operator Permit to Air Zimbabwe, stressing that the permit was earned on merit and would be kept on merit. He urged Zimbabweans in the diaspora, British investors and the broader business community to embrace the route as it reconnects Zimbabwe with the world. Speaking at the event, the Zimbabwean Ambassador to the United Kingdom, Col. (Rtd) C.M. Katsande, welcomed guests and set the tone for the evening, while the Deputy Minister of Tourism and Hospitality Industry, Hon. T. Mnangagwa (MP), delivered the closing remarks, underscoring the significance of the route for Zimbabwe's tourism sector. The event was attended by the Deputy Minister of Tourism and Hospitality Industry, Hon. T. Mnangagwa (MP); Mutapa Investment Fund, represented by Deputy Chief Investment Officer Mr E. Denhere; the Acting UK Ambassador to Zimbabwe, represented by Dr Jo Abbot; Air Zimbabwe Board Chairperson Dr. S. Gwarinda and Board Members; Air Zimbabwe Chief Executive Officer Mr E. Makona and Management; the Association of Zimbabwe Travel Agents; tour operators; members of the aviation business community; and the Zimbabwe Diaspora living in the UK. #DirectFlightEndlessConnections #ConnectZimbabwe #TransportDevelopment #AirZimbabwe #HarareLondon 🇿🇼🇬🇧

Elon Musk on raising capital: “You have to show investors that you’re all in” “Tesla almost died in 2008,” Elon explains. “The recession was particularly difficult for car companies, and in the summer of 2008 we had to raise a big funding round. But because of the collapse in the financial system, that funding round didn’t happen and we had to piece together money to keep the company going from myself and existing investors. We were able to complete a financing round that was just barely enough to keep the company going, and we closed it on the last hour of the last day that it was possible to do so. It was Christmas Eve 2008 at 6pm . . . and we would have run out of money a few days after Christmas.” Elon continues: “So while things are going really well these days, I think it’s always important to remember that when you’re creating a company, there are very dark times and it’s about getting through those dark times. That’s the difference between success and failure.” He offers the following advice to aspiring founders: “A company is a group of people gathered together to create a product or service. That’s really all a company is. So you have to really believe in what you’re creating and know in your heart and mind that this is something that matters and that the world ought to have.” Believing whole-heartedly in what your building is especially important for raising capital, Elon argues: “I think it’s important to show investors that you’re all in. For example with Tesla, the fact that I invested all the money I had and was all in — I literally had to borrow money from friends to pay rent in 2008 — made a huge difference to investors and convinced them to invest in Tesla at the same time that GM and Chrysler were going bankrupt. I think you have to show them that you really care, that you’ve got skin in the game, and that you’ve given it everything you’ve got. Then the other people at the company will follow suit, as will investors. I did that at both SpaceX and Tesla and think that’s really fundamental.” Elon also urges founders to only hire people who are passionate about what you’re building: “When you hire people, what you’re really trying to do is convince people to join you in the endeavor. You should hire people who are also passionate about what you’re doing . . . they need to really care about what they’re doing. Then they will stay during the dark times.”
