Musk’s 3 Lessons That Changed How I Work

Sep 09, 2025

Most entrepreneurs think scaling means working harder. Musk taught me the opposite.

1. Question Everything

Musk: “It’s very important to have a feedback loop.”

I stopped accepting “that’s how it’s always done” and rebuilt my processes from scratch.

2. Failure is Your Friend

“If things are not failing, you are not innovating enough.”

Instead of perfecting one automation for months, I now ship fast, test faster, and improve fastest.

3. Build Systems, Not Companies

“I don’t create companies for the sake of creating companies, but to get things done.”

Musk builds systems that solve problems. I applied the same thinking to my business.

The Result

  • Workweek: 60 hours → 20 hours
  • Revenue: Unchanged
  • Problems: Solve themselves

Musk’s biggest lesson? Don’t build a job for yourself. Build the system once. Let it run forever.
