The photo context: In 2008, Elon Musk was desperately fighting to keep both Tesla and SpaceX from going bankrupt during the global financial crisis. He poured nearly his entire remaining personal fortune into the two ventures, taking over as CEO of Tesla that year while SpaceX survived on its final successful rocket launch. Do not fear losing. “You will lose,” Musk says. “It will hurt the first fifty times. When you get used to losing, you will play each game with less emotion.” Take risks.
