🚨📕 THE BOOK OF ELON IS NOW LIVE!!! 🎉🚀 This is the book we WISHED @elonmusk would write… “All of Elon's most useful ideas, in his own words.” Learn directly from the world’s greatest entrepreneur, like you’re sitting across from him at dinner. It took FIVE YEARS to make this for you. Because it's built from hundreds and hundreds of Elon's public appearances. I went through 3,000,000+ words to collect the most useful and timeless ideas. The final book is ~50,000 words. Every word is USEFUL. (This is what I do. My first book, The Almanack of Naval Ravikant, is one of the top 100 most highlighted books of all time on Kindle.) Then, I spent $50,000+ on editing and design so it looks and feels beautiful. Then… > Foreword by @naval. > Visuals by @jackbutcher. > Blurb from @mrbeast. > Published by @scribemediaco. > And yes, approval on this idea from Elon himself, thanks to @samteller. I went Maximum Effort to make this an all-timer. We got 10/10 on reviews from early readers, then worked on it for ANOTHER YEAR. Why so much effort? My mission is to create One Million Musks. For a generation to lift our gaze and build, so our grandchildren live in a world beyond our wildest dreams. I’m an independent author. I don’t get an advance. I risk my own time and money to make these books. Then we give away millions of them. Digital versions are free. I believe this book can benefit every human, and if you can’t pay five bucks for it, I want to personally gift it to you. Because I know it is useful. Useful how? You may be seeking purpose, a mission worthy of your life’s effort. You may have a clear purpose and seek the tools for success. You will find both in this book. Get the benefits of Elon’s entire life of hard-won lessons in a five-hour, easy read. (I checked, it’s a 5th-grade reading level.) You’ll feel personally mentored by the greatest entrepreneur in history. Click below to buy it now on Amazon, Audible, or directly from me. Amazon: amzn.to/47avSuh Audible: lnkd.in/gi_7HrFP Me: lnkd.in/gS2xWUWH If you’re not sure it’s worth $4.99 yet, just start reading the free version. PLEASE take 6 seconds to Like, Bookmark, and Repost. Even better: send this to your friends, team, or Group Chats! I guarantee this book will improve their lives. Spread the word! Every little thing helps. Your support spreads good ideas around the world, helping people and making the future better for everyone. Thank you! Forward. Together.

The actual origin story of SpaceX was a charitable mission.
David Senra@davidsenra

.@EricJorgenson describes the original vision for @SpaceX: @elonmusk's original goal was to increase NASA's budget, and he was willing to just burn $100M on a philanthropic mission to display a greenhouse on Mars. Shooting a greenhouse to Mars with existing rocket technology, get this photo on the front page of every paper. There was like a little plant on the red planet, the first time life had transferred to another planet. He thought: "That'll probably increase NASA's budget and like spur this wave of exploration and interest in space." And when he tried to do that, he discovered that the space launch market was so expensive and un-innovative and hadn't been moving forward. That's actually how he discovered the opportunity to start SpaceX. "That's what's actually going to move this market forward."

@EricJorgenson after Naval, Balajis, Elon - have you considered writing a book about yourself? Because we need to know your philosophies and thought processes too who spends years researching about a person in deep. Can we expect an autobiography maybe in future?😁

If you put David Goggins, Richard Feynman and Napoleon together you get @elonmusk. "He's David Goggins' level intensity, he's Richard Feynman's level of unconventional technical brilliance, and he's Napoleon's strategic genius and insane bias to action. Those three traits combined make him just incredibly singular. Even if you put in this amount of time trying to know your business from A to Z, without that deep technical intuition or sense of the fundamentals of the physics and the materials, you couldn't make the calls that he's making. The founder is the guardian of the company's soul."
