Elon Musk is a multi-purpose individual. Here, Jack Delosa describes how he is competing with the biggest names in the aerospace sector, aviation, energy utilities, oil businesses, and the auto industry and succeeding.
Musk's Model 3 Tesla was unveiled last week. Over 325,000 units of the mass-market electric vehicle have already been pre-sold and are scheduled for delivery over the next two years. With these figures, the business is implying $14 billion in future sales, which makes it the biggest one-week product launch ever.
*Note from: It is crucial to evaluate auto insurance policies offered by several businesses before deciding which one is required, regardless of the type of vehicle you own, including electric vehicles.
But according to Tesla's website, "Most significantly, we are taking a huge step towards a brighter future by accelerating the transition to sustainable transportation," as a corporation with a bigger mission.
Musk's for-profit space exploration business, SpaceX, successfully launched its Falcon 9 rocket into orbit that same week to deliver a payload to the International Space Station. The rocket was then successfully returned to Earth, and for the first time ever, it made a safe landing on a drone ship in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.
This is the first time SpaceX has safely landed a rocket at sea, but it is not the first time the company has successfully brought a rocket back to Earth after launching it into orbit. It is preferable to land at water because, if something goes wrong, the landing coordinates can change significantly when a rocket returns from lunar orbit at 5,000 mph; the Atlantic, for example, provides a larger safety margin.
Musk envisions us landing on Mars within the next 15 years, thus this achievement brings SpaceX one step closer to its goal of making humanity multi-planetary.
Musk recently experienced the most prosperous week of his life as an entrepreneur, but what has motivated this multibillionaire inventor to reach the point where he is progressively overtaking all other famous people in history?
Musk asked himself, "What do I want to dedicate my life's work to?" while he was a college student in 1995.
He concluded that "to empower the future of humanity" was his overarching life goal. He said to Ashlee Vance, who was working with him to write a biography in 2015, "Perhaps I read too many comics as
Elon Musk – Vision and Mission
As an entrepreneur, Musk is motivated by a vision that transcends himself.
The various paths Musk is taking to realize his vision are broken down into several missions. If the vision is the top of the mountain, then the missions are the various routes he is taking to reach it. He brings the vision to reality by completing the mission.
Musk made the decision to start with the internet. "It felt like I could either take a Ph.D. and watch the internet unfold or I could contribute and help build it in some form," he would later tell Sal Khan in a 2013 interview for the Khan Academy.
He and his brother, Kimbal, established Zip2, an online start-up, in 1995. Musk was able to sign up large newspapers like The New York Times, who could use the platform to market local companies like restaurants and gyms to their online readers. Zip2 would eventually develop into an online map that featured local businesses in the area. Today, we are quite familiar with this idea.
But that was the first time a digital map was made and paired with listings typically found in the yellow pages.
The brothers would connect to the internet by passing a wire through a hole in the floor and connecting to the ISP, which was situated on the floor beneath them. Elon and Kimbal would essentially live out of their pockets if they had no money at all.
