Some of the richest people on the planet didn't just get lucky.

They followed rules most people ignore.

Let me tell you a secret.

And they started before they felt ready.

You just have to get started.

They stayed curious when others got comfortable.

I was just the most curious person you could ever imagine.

Paid attention to opportunities most people miss.

You have to pay attention to your life because it is speaking to you all the time.

And kept going long after everyone else quit.

It was cheaper than an apartment,

so we actually just slept in the office and then showered at the YMCA at Pagmila El Camino.

From billionaires who stayed inside their circle of competence...

Tom Watson Sr., who built IBM,

said, I'm no genius, but I'm smarter in spots and I stay around those spots.

Well, he was talking about a circle of competence.

To leaders who failed, learned, and came back stronger...

Tillman Fertitta's made so many mistakes,

I couldn't even start to name him.

But you learn from your mistakes.

Today you're about to learn the top 10 rules for success from the world's richest people.

If you want to think smarter,

move faster, and build real wealth,

this video is for you.

Need motivation?

Watch a top 10 with Believe Nation.

If you've been here before,

drop a hashtag believe in the comments below so I can feature you here in a future video.

And if you're new, welcome to Believe Nation,

the only channel that helps you believe in yourself daily,

one video at a time.

Okay, let's kick it off with rule number one.

Be persistent with Elon Musk.

When I started the first internet company Zip2 with my brother and another person,

Greg Curry, it wasn't really with the thought of being wealthy.

I've got nothing against being wealthy, but...

We'll get back to that later, too.

But it was just from the standpoint of wanting to be part of the internet.

And I figured if we could make enough money to just get by,

that would be okay.

And we started off, we literally only had like one computer

and so it would be our web server during the day and I'd code at night.

And we just got a small office in Palo Alto back when rent was not insane.

And it cost us like $450 a month.

It was cheaper than an apartment so we actually just slept in the office

and then showered at the YMCA at Pagemal El Camino.

So we would walk over there and shower.

And that was actually, I think that was when I first met you, by the way.

And so I don't know how many people,

probably not many people know this,

but we actually pitched Steve in like January 96 on the Zip2 business plan.

And actually, Steve was actually one of the most up to speed on what actually was in our business plan.

Most of the people we met did not actually read our business plan.

In fact, a lot of venture capitalists we met at the time didn't even know what the internet was.

They'd never used it.

I'm not sure if we still do.

Yeah, right.

Yeah, I'm talking like, you know,

sort of well-known people on Sand Hill.

It was like, wow, okay.

But at the time, nobody had made any money on the internet.

So I guess that's, you know,

it wasn't really clear evidence that there was a business.

Rule number two, love the work you do with Bill Gates.

I think for Microsoft to be successful,

even though we were the first,

and we had a broader concept of software than the other companies,

we needed to be what I would call hardcore.

And in that case, the work is what I want to do.

It's not like, oh God,

I've got to earn a little bit more money.

It's this is the thing that throughout my childhood,

I was so lucky because of my parents and some early friends,

school I went to.

I had these exposures to computers that were very rare.

And so I had all these thousands of hours of programming experience and great feedback on,

okay, how do you do it better from the very best adults?

I got to see what was coming.

And the idea of being part of making that real,

I woke up and said,

okay, I'd love to get to work.

My younger self could stay in,

you know, days at a time.

I don't do that now.

But then it was just in no way a hardship,

you know, because I, you know,

felt we were part of something that would be very empowering.

And, you know, competitively, I wanted us to be the ones to make it happen.

Rule number three, define your circle of competence with Warren Buffett.

The circle of competence is the area in which certain kinds of industries,

for example, I can understand the future economics of other kinds of industries.

I can't.

And I have to know where the perimeter of that circle is.

Now, over the years, I may be able to enlarge the circle somewhat,

but the circle never gets to be all-encompassing.

And Tom Watson, Sr., who built IBM,

said, I'm no genius, but I'm smart in spots and I stay around those spots.

Well, he was talking about a circle of competence.

And I see all All of my partner Charlie says,

100

it's wonderful to have an IQ of 180 as long as you don't think it's 200.

101

And I have seen all kinds of very,

102

very smart people self-destruct one way or another in business or particularly in the stock market.

103

And they stray outside of their circle of competence just because they know they're very, very smart.

104

But that doesn't mean they know everything.

105

And defining what your game is,

106

where you're going to have an edge, is enormously important.

107

I think both my partner Charlie and I have gotten reasonably good at that over the years.

108

Rule number four is get started with Mark Zuckerberg.

109

Let me tell you a secret.

110

Ideas don't come out fully formed.

111

They only become clear as you work on them.

112

You just have to get started.

113

If I had to know everything about connecting people before I got started,

114

I never would have built Facebook.

115

I remember that night I launched Facebook from that little dorm in Kirkland House.

116

I went to Noakes with my friend KX,

117

and I remember telling him clearly that I was excited to help connect the Harvard community,

118

but one day someone would connect the whole world.

119

The thing is, it never even occurred to me that that someone might be us.

120

This idea was so clear to us that all people want to connect.

121

So we just kept working on it day after day after day.

122

And I know that a lot of you are gonna have your own stories just like this.

123

Also, if you wanna take real action after this video,

124

I made a free worksheet just for you.

125

It covers the top lessons from today,

126

gives you space to write your biggest takeaways and helps you build a simple action plan.

127

It's 100% free.

128

Just click the link in the description below to go grab it see you there.

129

Rule number five, be curious with Mark Cuban.

130

What do you think it was inside you?

131

Did you get it from your parents?

132

Did you get it from your community?

133

What was it that helped Mark realize that there were gaps in every market?

134

Because you were selling stuff when you were a kid.

135

How do you see those gaps?

136

I mean, I was just the most curious person you could ever imagine.

137

I mean, I just loved to learn.

138

I was that kid that was just reading everything I could get my hands on about business.

139

And if you read enough,

140

you're going to learn something to your advantage.

141

Wait, wait, wait, go back, go back.

142

You said you were reading about business as a kid?

143

Oh, yeah.

144

Like I was 10, 11,

145

12, you know, you name it.

146

I was reading.

147

This is the difference.

148

Yeah.

149

Business books all the time.

150

You know, there was this kid,

151

Barry Minkow, and he started this this carpet cleaning company,

152

ZZZ Best Carpet Cleaning.

153

Right.

154

And he took a company public when he was 21 years old and there was a book written about him.

155

But the thing about it was it was completely a fraud.

156

And so he made all these tens of millions,

157

if not a hundred million dollars as a 21 year old kid running this company,

158

just fooling everybody and anybody he talked to.

159

And I read that book as a kid.

160

And I was thinking, you know,

161

if this kid can fool all these adults,

162

put aside the fraud, that just means there's lots of opportunity there to do something

163

and build a business and how old you are.

164

Doesn't mean it doesn't mean anything, right.

165

If you can, if you can figure it out.

166

And so I just always just took that and said,

167

you know, I just keep on learning from what other people do

168

and learn from their mistakes and learn what they do right.

169

Get a job, learn from,

170

you know, I would tell myself,

171

you know, you pay to go to college,

172

but then after you get a job,

173

you get paid to learn.

174

And I always, that's the way I looked at the jobs that I got,

175

the way I look at the jobs I got fired from,

176

you know, everything was a learning experience.

177

And sooner or later, it added up to something of value.

178

Rule number six, pay attention to life with Oprah Winfrey.

179

You have to pay attention to your life because it is speaking to you all the time.

180

And the bumps in the road and the failures

181

that pointed me in a new direction and led me to a path made clear.

182

That is what I'm wishing for you today,

183

your own path made clear.

184

And I know that there is a lot of anxiety,

185

a lot about what the future holds and how much money you're going to make.

186

but your anxiety does not contribute one iota to your progress

187

i'm here to tell you it does the opposite look at how many times you worried

188

and you were upset

189

and you didn't think you were going to make it through the block i got

190

that text a couple months ago and here you are today you made it

191

and i'm here to tell you that you're going to be more than okay.

192

So take a deep breath with me right now.

193

And repeat this.

194

Everything is always working out for me.

195

I want to hear it.

196

Everything is always working out for me.

197

That's my mantra.

198

Make it yours.

199

everything is always working out for me because it is

200

and it has and it will continue to be as you forge and discover your own path.

201

Rule number seven is follow your passion with Jeff Bezos.

202

You don't choose your passions your passions choose you

203

and I fell in love with space and rockets

204

when I was a five-year-old boy and watched Neil Armstrong step onto the surface of the moon.

205

And I have been passionate about it ever since.

206

And there's a very real sense in which Amazon,

207

which is an amazing, fun,

208

interesting company to have started and lead is a lottery winning for me.

209

And so I'm taking those lottery winnings and investing them in Blue Origin.

210

And I've been working on that for 15 years.

211

Our motto is gradatum ferociter,

212

which means step by step ferociously.

213

I like to do these things very incrementally.

214

We have, there's a military phrase that I especially love and it says slow is smooth and smooth is fast.

215

And I have seen that in every endeavor I've ever been in.

216

That's the kind of thing that really allows you to make progress.

217

If you do everything in the right sequence, never skip any steps.

218

And so we have been working in that vein for a long time and stuff is coming out the pipeline.

219

And I can tell you it's incredibly gratifying.

220

We have now more than a thousand person team at Blue Origin.

221

And that team is incredibly talented and they're doing a great job.

222

My vision for Blue Origin,

223

the long-term vision, is millions of people living and working in space.

224

We need a spacefaring civilization for a whole bunch of reasons,

225

and that's the vision.

226

Gwyneth Wright, learn from your mistakes with Tillman Fertitta.

227

Tillman Fertitta's made so many mistakes,

228

I couldn't even start to name them.

229

Give me one.

230

I mean, I've over-negotiated deals and lost them.

231

What does that mean, over-negotiated?

232

You know, you try to cut too good of a deal and somebody gets up and walks away,

233

and you can't get them back in the room.

234

Or, you know, you just made a bad deal.

235

You know, you just made a bad deal.

236

And I've made plenty of bad deals.

237

I've just always made sure I've made a lot more good deals.

238

But you learn from your mistakes.

239

And I tell people every day,

240

the day you say that there's not a paddle for everybody who's behind is the day you're gonna be in trouble.

241

And every day I come to work knowing that I better protect myself from that paddle coming down the aisle.

242

You refer to the paddle in the book.

243

What's the worst paddling you've gotten in business?

244

Can you talk about it?

245

Yeah, absolutely.

246

In the crisis of 08 and 09,

247

I happened to have around a billion dollars in debt coming due.

248

And that is when they were talking about the bank shutting down and it was a wall time all time.

249

And we got it done,

250

but it was not easy.

251

We were the only person even on a road show right then raising debt.

252

It was so tough.

253

And then I go back to the early 80s

254

or the mid 80s when you had the crisis in Texas where every S&L went under and every bank went under.

255

And it's really when I was starting my career.

256

And I lasted before all the banks and got a reprieve from them.

257

I talk about that in the book.

258

For several years.

259

For several years.

260

With no interest.

261

and you didn't have to make a payment or anything.

262

How about that luck that I outlasted the banks?

263

I read that and I said,

264

this guy's got a lucky charm.

265

Number nine, follow your own path.

266

Larry Ellison.

267

My parents and my teachers had all planned for me to go to medical school.

268

So for a long time,

269

I had been preparing to go to medical school

270

and was on the brink of doing just that when I let my parents know,

271

in fact, I wasn't gonna do that.

272

I was gonna take this car trip out to Silicon Valley and try my hand at engineering rather than medicine.

273

And it's interesting, it was after the subject of a commencement speech I gave and where my parents were so upset,

274

my family was so upset,

275

my teachers were so upset that they didn't talk to me for a few years.

276

But eventually, they forget me.

277

But lo and behold, I wish they were still here today to see come full circle as we're now using technology,

278

the technology that I worked on for most of my life,

279

to make the health quality of healthcare dramatically improve the quality of of health court care.

280

And number 10, the last one before a very special bonus clip,

281

is Think Outside the Box with Jensen Huang.

282

I heard from someone that there were pro,

283

that you could, there was never a problem you couldn't fix.

284

Do you think that's true?

285

Or was there a problem that you couldn't fix?

286

There's some problems you can't fix.

287

I don't recall one.

288

And the reason for that is because,

289

either you find a solution for it or you change the problem so that you can find a solution for it.

290

And I think in a lot of ways,

291

some people call that thinking out of the box.

292

If you can't solve something,

293

either sometimes it's not meant to be solved,

294

or you can change the problem in a way that is solvable.

295

Now there's some problems that if you try to solve it in the most literal sense,

296

it would take a long time to solve.

297

It might take a lot of money to solve.

298

It might take an enormous amount of cost,

299

you know, in time or resource or whatever it is, or materials.

300

But if you change the problem and you truly understand what is the person really trying to ask?

301

You know, what is at the core of that problem?

302

Maybe you can express that problem in a slightly different way.

303

And as a result, it becomes solvable and a solution can be found.

304

Maybe you can simplify the problem.

305

Maybe you can break the problem down into 10 pieces and that you would solve it over time.

306

And there's a lot of different ways to look at the problem.

307

And smart thinking about a problem is really at the beginning of engineering.

308

It's asking the question, what is this problem really about?

309

You know, what is this problem really about?

310

And oftentimes, by asking that question,

311

what is this problem really about?

312

You know, what are they really asking?

313

What are we really looking for?

314

How can I express this problem in different ways?

315

You know, when you think about it that way,

316

all of a sudden, the number of solutions really, really expand.

317

Who are a few of the people that you study,

318

you feel you learn from,

319

or that influence your thinking about how you built your business?

320

You know, when I was a kid,

321

you would read about entrepreneurs that were starting companies.

322

Charles Schwab or Fred Smith,

323

certainly Sam Walton, some of the early telecom pioneers,

324

people that were doing it right then, like in the 70s.

325

And those stories were just super interesting to me.

326

And I grew up in Houston,

327

which was kind of a boomtown.

328

You'd see these new companies being created and parents were talking about that.

329

And so those stories were always just interesting and compelling.

330

And you want to understand,

331

well, how did they do that?

332

And why did they do that?

333

And, you know, what happened?

334

And, you know, I never imagined myself doing anything else other than starting a business.

335

Yeah, the idea just was in my consciousness from a very early age.

336

This great line that Jeff Bezos says,

337

where he's like, we don't choose our passions, our passions choose us.

338

I think there's multiple, my notes to myself on the margins,

339

like, oh, he's compelled.

340

It's like, this is coming through him.

341

He's like, he has no choice.

342

This isn't going to happen.

343

But is there anybody in particular that you really honed in on and admired and tried to emulate in some way?

344

I always think you can learn from just about anybody,

345

whether they succeeded or failed.

346

And so I tried to just understand as many people as I could that were entrepreneurs,

347

that were starting businesses, how did they struggle,

348

what worked, what didn't work.

349

And those were always the compelling and interesting stories.

350

And congratulations, you're one video closer to who you're meant to be.

351

For 10 more rules for success from the world's richest people,

352

check the video right there next to me.

353

I think you'll love it.

354

Continue to believe and I'll see you there.

355

Some of the richest people on the planet didn't just get lucky.

356

They built ideas that changed industries.

357

Ideas matter.

358

Took risks most people were afraid to take.

359

The risk for me was if it didn't work.
