    He has a clear vision of what he was going to do even when he was young and he actually studied the theories in college of what will be his product in the future. Ultimately, I think he got all of his inspirations to the great thinker Nikola Tesla for developing useful products that has been conceptualized long time ago and goes along with his keen sense of business acumen. That was what you call getting ahead of the future. Let's do it!!!

    I feel like people compare themselves way too harshly to the next guy in the pack. It's ok to want to achieve what Elon Musk has achieved but being your most authentic and true self is when you can discover parts of yourself that you never knew before. Do what you WANT, not what the world and society tell you to do. At the end of the day, when you're old and retired, you can just be grateful that you actually lived and had fun while doing it.

    Elon is mart, no doubt. He had planned to do the things he now does, back in 1995, but the Internet was just getting started, so he put those things on hold and focused on building an Internet company. He waited approximately 15 years to do the things he now does. Genius. Lesson learned: You have to be at the right place at the right place to get better opportunity at getting traction.

      You have to do something no one else has done. You don't become a Musk / Gates / Jobbs by just following a beaten path. You have to come up with something totally original. It doesn't matter what it is. As long as people want/need it, you could create or provide something useful and beneficial. All you have to do is convince some investors that you could profit from their investments 2 fold, 10 fold, whatever. And boom. You have now started a business.
      Or just create one groundbreaking invention, like an EM drive, and sell it for a billion dollars. That's what I would do. I don't want to spend my life in board meetings. "Here's your fuckin free energy, thanks for the cheese" and spend my life on a fuckin mountain somewhere.

      @@27prajjwalprasad43 will power it is. But he is also a natural-born genius. You can't train to be a genius. Who the hell can memorize the science encyclopedia and execute extensive calculations when he still a kid.

    I don’t have your specific talents and know absolutely nothing about coding and technology DNA structures, but I’ve accomplished something that no one else has. I’ve awakened the robotics to the serious problems we face and propose a way to solve it. I never gave up in the face of the multiple adversities and am a rogue. This is to assist humanity, sometimes you have to endure onward and never surrender. Even if you go against society itself. Please read my words Elon because I’m one of the most advanced humans in the world, a mastermind rogue futurist.

    The next Elon musk is not watching this... He/she is probably sitting in some corner of the world trying to solve problems on Astro physics or to self learn Rocket science
