唠叨两句:

1.the fourth time is the charm, right?事情做到第四次,更有可能成功。是呀,这就是第四次的魅力,是Never give up!的魅力。当然,没有每一次失败后的痛定思痛,不断改进,顶住全世界的否定和质疑努力尝试,则永远也不会成功。Musk很有魅力,也很有气概,业界大多流传的是一次成功的神话,或一败涂地的失败,很少会有创始人有这个钱,有这个气魄,有这个毅力花费巨多失败多次而获得最终成功。

2. He looked like death itself...He seemed like a man on the brink...The harder it gets, the better he gets. Anyone who saw what he went through firsthand came away with more respect for the guy.仅仅读传记中的文字就如此惊心动魄,不难想象那些亲眼见证这些的人一定会对Musk有120分的敬佩。&成功永远不是躺赢。
