Picking Nuggets

🟠 Naval Ravikant on the Power of Thinking Big:

"You’ve got one life on this planet. Why not try to build something big? This is the beauty of Elon Musk, and why I think he inspires so many people, it’s just because he takes on really, really big audacious tasks. And he provides an example for people to think big.

And it takes a lot of work to build even small things. I don’t think the corner grocery store owner is working any less hard than Elon Musk, or pouring any less sweat and toil into it. Maybe even more.

But for whatever reason, education, circumstance, they didn’t get the chance to think as big, so the outcome is not as big. So, it’s just better to think big. Obviously, rationally, within your means, stay optimistic."

"and so i want you to think of this. Big things, Start Small." - that Amazon guy that laughs. Think super fucking big guys, don't be discouraged by how small the beginnings are/seem.
