In America, PayPal sold many of its successful ventures, such as Zip2, to obtain the necessary amount for its further goals. After that, Elon Musk turned to the field of engineering and founded companies such as Tesla Motors, SpaceX and SolarCity, which are very popular today.<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">After all he&#8217;s done, it can be said that Elon Musk knows what needs to be done to be successful. In his speech for Marshall Business School (USC) in 2014, he highlighted five points he thinks contribute to success.<\/div>\n<div class=\"nImage coverImage\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ceotudent.com\/wp-content\/images\/post\/user-799\/m0cyya.jpg\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI have about 5-6 minutes to say things that I think are helpful, I will do my best. I&#8217;ve narrowed it all down to three, maybe four, and I think these are pretty important. You may have heard of some of them before, but they are worth emphasizing again.\u201d (He finished with 5 items.)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">Here are those 5 secrets:<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nHR\">\n<hr>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">\n<h2>Tip #1: Work Super Hard!<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"nImage\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ceotudent.com\/wp-content\/images\/post\/user-799\/jvg59t.jpg\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">\u201cFirst, you need work depending on how well you want to do it, and you need to work very hard, especially if you&#8217;re starting a company. So what does super much mean?<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">Instead of renting a house, my brother and I rented a small office for our first company and slept on the sofa. We used the showers in the public areas of the state. There was only one computer in the company. That&#8217;s why the website stays open during the day and I code the site at night; Anytime, seven days a week. I had a girlfriend at the time and she had to sleep in the office to be with me.<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">What I would say is, especially if you are starting a company. In simple math, if you work 100 hours where someone else works 50 hours, you will earn twice as much as other companies. \u201d<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nHR\">\n<hr>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">\n<h2>Tip #2: Attract Quality People.<\/h2>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"nImage\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ceotudent.com\/wp-content\/images\/post\/user-799\/t1e9f9.jpg\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">\u201cThe other thing I would say is that if you&#8217;re starting or joining a company, the most important thing is to be with great people.<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">A company is a group of people brought together to create a product or service. So, how talented and hardworking this group is and their degree of cohesion will determine the success of the company. If you&#8217;re starting a company, do your best to recruit great people. \u201d<\/div>\n<p><script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1787826683754973\" data-ad-slot=\"3264820100\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<div class=\"line nHR\">\n<hr>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">\n<h2>Tip #3: Focus Only on the Product or Service.<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"nImage\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ceotudent.com\/wp-content\/images\/post\/user-799\/fjmf2g.jpg\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">\u201cFocus on the signal instead of the noise.
