Peter Diamandis - Comments on Innovation and creating a new initiate

when given a choice... take both!!!
start at the top then work your way up
when force to compromise ask for more
if you can't win, change the rules
if you can't change the rules, then ignore them
when faced without a challenge, make one.

"No" simply means begin again at one level higher


When in doubt: THINK!
You get what you incentivize.

Without a target you'll miss it every time
If you can't measure it, you can't improve it.
The day before something is a breakthrough it's a crazy idea.

Create a community for space exploration...
"stone soup"  --->  everyone contributes to your idea..  just keep asking for ingredients....


alot of times rules and regulations get in the way of your big audacious vision

it took 6 months to change the rules and regulations to allow stephen hawking to experience zero gravity,  but we have to do this  so that stephen hawking can experience zero gravity....

make sure you set public expectations  properly...  had to make sure stephen hawking did at least 1 parabolic arc.

if we don't go into space then the planet may not make it...

if you're not willing to fail you won't take risk...
