One of my strongest convictions is that the world is a giant machine constructed to humiliate you for not taking action. 3 quick examples:
- You're thinking of starting a business
The most stupid, 80 IQ, visionless, incompetent people are currently running businesses making millions of dollars. This applies to every domain of business. As you get more business experience, you see it more and more and more. Reality specifically installed these people to make it clear you have zero excuses
- You start running or lifting
Start running and you'll encounter much older, much fatter individuals passing you at great speed. Start lifting and you'll encounter absolute genetic disasters lifting twice what you can and looking infinitely better. Reality specifically installed these people to point out that you can go infinitely further if you put in even a fraction of the effort they did
- You want a girlfriend but are insecure
You walk the street and look closely at couples. The ugliest, balding, short, high-pitched voice, poor and otherwise "low status" infidels are walking around with girls who are in love with them. Reality specifically installed these people to point out that your fears and inaction has no logical basis in reality

This same thing applies everywhere, in all of life
Look carefully anywhere and you will see the same thing
Reality has been constructed carefully by a benevolent trickster God specifically to humiliate you for not taking action
The worst sin of all is inaction and lack of courage
Out of love, he finds every possible way to point out that even a tiny quantity of action can outperform almost everything. And makes that clear by showing that the most incompetent and ugly freaks succeed far beyond you when they keep taking basic steps forward
So you have no excuse at all

Elon: “The fact, as you pointed out, is that a quarter billion people follow me. I think a lot more people actually like me than don’t, and I think a lot more people hate you and the media more than you realize.”
