Quotes by Sam Altman
- Ask for what you want. You usually won’t get it, and often the rejection will be painful. But when this works, it works surprisingly well.
- Figure out what you really want. Learn what it takes to make it happen and commit to doing it. Don’t chase after too many other things.
- Hard work compounds like interest, and the earlier you do it, the more time you have for the benefits to pay off.
- If there is a single key to success, it is the trait of being able to make things happen in the world – willfulness, determination, execution focus, not giving up when you hit a roadblock, the ability to solve any problem that comes your way, and self-belief.
- The days are long but the decades are short.
- The most important thing to learn in school is that you can learn almost anything, and so you shouldn’t let not knowing about something be an excuse for not doing what you want to do. Go focus and study.
