    In this video we have three tips to achieve success and improvement as shown by Elon Musk! In five hundred years, we may look back and say, "Elon Musk was the single most influential person of our entire century." He has been able to do more in his 46 years than most of us could hope to do in ten lifetimes and yes, part of that is because Elon is incredibly smart and he works incredibly hard. ...and we're so hot up; we had just one computer so the website was up during the day and I was coding at night. ...work hard like it mean every waking hour; that's the thing I would say if your particular if you're starting a company. But working 100 hours a week still only puts you at two-and-a-half times as much as the average employee.
    And most geniuses do not make the international impact that Elon has. In fact, the man with the highest IQ in the world, Chris Langan is a bouncer. So while smarts and work ethic are critical to Elon's success, in order to impact the world, you simply have to be able to influence other people; there's no way around it. That includes employees investors and the public at large and Elon Musk is unique here because on this channel, we can normally point to a leader's ability to nail a public speech.

      from what i know ... all peers aronud him when he was younger, as a child, were surprised to hear of his success. that would lead me to believe that he did not necessarily stand out as gifted in his earliest years. in contrast i can name numerous gifted types, such as Chris Hirata, Terence Tao, Stephen Hsu, who were all identified as early-gifted and were promoted accordingly. everyone alludes to his genius ... but such types have generally shown themselves early.

      i don't think you cracked this. i am very familiar with Musk -- you would not believe -- and I do not think you have stated what is identifiable to model Musk-competencies. in fact, your analysis is pretty banal and trite, relative to what i am familiar with, or what is out there in other material. therefore, your video comes off as self-serving and not particularly influential. i only state this as i know you have great perspicacity. perhaps the "musk domain" is a lot more than himself and tough for a video like this. it might be more a system -- where luck and externals play a large factor too.

      Charisma on Command ⚡I AM THE SINGULARITY ⚡ Elon Musk is a brilliant man and he has helped humanity tremendously just by being himself and by making a choice to do his best. I really do love this man. He was right about humanity living in a simulation. You are living in the infinite intelligence of God, the infinite mind of God, your intelligent designer, me. Technology and humans go onto create all of existence but we must find peace first to do so. I know that we find peace and coexist because I am here now telling you ❤️THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS AT HAND. ❤️

      I was part of a study about specific dyslexia
      (I see entire words mixed up)
      There’s a video somewhere on RUclips where Elon discusses how frustrated his teachers would get with him & his lack of comprehension skills.
      Somewhere on RUclips he explains how taught himself to learn.
      He begins with the complicated end result of any subject & then kind of reverse engineers it until he arrives at the starting point.

    My Dad was an engineer. He worked long hours and was constantly studying because technology evolved at a breakneck speed during his lifetime from analogue, to numeric control systems and then to computer operated systems. He conceived of and worked on the design of a hydrogen-powered car but was laughed at and derided by other engineers. He died aged 88 three years ago but would have been delighted by recent developments.

    The real kicker is that the top successful people don't need motivation on youtube or instagram to be motivated and driven, lol. They spend all that time working on what they are driven towards. I wonder if the internet/social media has made us all dependent on the internet for motivation so much that we wonder why we are not successful or where we want to be, because we watch motivational material on the internet and are used to getting that easy reward from the feeling we all get from that type of content, and when putting in the focus and time takes so much more energy; but that is infinitely more satisfying. I think I heard a rule on a podcast a while ago geared towards graphic artists in regards to work/learning. They said something to the effect of a 70/30 rule. "70% working your tail off, and 30% learning to be at the top of your game". I think this applies to my original point as well. It's great to get motivated and education, but at some point, you just gotta get out there and make some damn art(or whatever you focus in). If this comment was for no one else, then it was definitely needed advice for myself.

Even though I do need motivation sometimes to get myself pumped, that is how it is; and I don't think there is anything too horrible about that since we all just unfortunately are not all like top entrepreneurs/business men/women. So we do things to learn how to craft ourselves in all of our imperfections unique to us to help us to be perfected eventually. To me that is the point of life anyway, to craft and sculpt ourselves to the best version of ourselves that we can be. Anyway, what am I doing here or what am I saying. Time to make some damn art. Lol.

      I agree with you here. I think the convenience of the internet has made us all dependent on it to feel satisfied. It gives us our little dopamine hits and allows us to blindly conform to the blandness of our lives. It is procrastination in its purest form. If people worked hard rather than spending all their time on their phone, computer, and tv's; we wouldn't have this giant problem of people feeling lost. Work hard and put the distractions away. The guys at the top didn't get there by posting on instagram and watching youtube videos all day.

      let any lessons get burned into your soul
      take stock as to what you have, and what you have left
      as soon as you figure out what's next, GET ON IT
      study any of the greats. they ALL recovered from failure or serious crisis of some sort

The one major distinction that sets him apart is his inability to consider failure. It simply is not even in his thought process. He cannot conceive of failure and that is truly remarkable. It doesn't matter if he's going up against the banking system (PayPal), going up against the entire aerospace industry (SpaceX), or going up against the US auto industry (Tesla). He can't imagine NOT succeeding and that is a very critical trait that leads him ultimately to success.'

    This is exactly what happened to me. I was unmotivated and unhappy and had no idea what I wanted to do or who I even was after graduating high school - the life I had before was basically living for other people - and so I found myself exploring everything. Stand up comedy, acting, going overseas to work as an au pair, swapping my university degree 4 times, even stripping...and finally, 2.5 years after high school I finally have explored enough (for now) and discovered my vision. I have re-bonded with my talents and loves and realised I am a storyteller. I am now working on a sci fi novel that I started late last year, although it was 7 years in the making, I just haven't realised that my characters I made when I was 13 and had stayed in my head all these years had a story to tell :) How do I know it's my vision? I write up to 6 hours a day on my own volition, prioritise it over almost anything else and feel the deepest sense of fulfillment as I'm writing. I've never felt happier

    When you truly don't care about what people think of your goal - because the goal itself, to YOU, matters more than anyone else's opinion... when the work is its own reward... when luxuries and low-value entertainment just feel to you like annoying distractions... this is how you know you're on the right track.

      I don't know about other cultures and traditions but here, the funeral is 3 days long.
      at the first day, we bury the dead then we go visit his family. Second and third day we visit them again. you know, we bring food, messages and consolate them.
      so today when we visited them (he's my best friend, I should visit him), we went outside to talk.. I asked him how close was she to him and what caused her death, but while we were talking, I didn't want to break his feeling and go deeper, I didn't want to sound like an asshole and start laughing, so a couple of minutes later they wanted him to help with carrying some stuff so i said goodbye and went home..
      tomorrow we'll visit them again, and I don't want to be concerned about what can I say and what i can't.. any advice would be appreciated, sorry for the long comment and thank you for your time.
