Yes, he is nonother than Elon Musk...

Maybe we can say the success you know but the story you don't...

It was just a coincidence and I came to know about this book. and this is literally a worth reading it's not just a simple life story kind but a book with an infinite number of lessons to learn...

What inspired me to study more about this man were many things like..even after SpaceX was about to bankrupt in the year 2008 he didn't give up and now it's net worth is more than about 34 billion dollars...in starting period of tesla....elon was badly humiliated by many more powerful personalities of that time..and now he left behind many popular. Brands like Ford, Toyota with a valuation of more than 208 billion dollars....also he is in the top 10 Worlds richest person. other than that what shocked me was even after handling more than 6 big companies....other than tesla and SpaceX. 

How does he get time for his family for exercises and even time for his hobbies...

Now what people think, is he is a fortunate person, but wait just a moment, no one is fortunate till they make themselves one...

This book tells some important habits and qualities which separate him from the world.

His routine, he almost in his every interview mentioned that he always takes care of his sleep... now is sleeping a thing to be taken care of. so let me tell you that scientists have proved that a human need at least 6 hours sleep for better and improved performance...and so is the reason that he takes care of his sleep routine....once you are in a good sleep cycle then every day will be fresh and effective for you.... to conclude with a cheesy line ill say "he takes a real good time to dream and wakes up to fulfill them"

The next important task is to know what important task is It's just that the more important stuff you will complete the less anxiety you will face at the end.

In simple words Elon chooses his most important work to complete first...now this helps him be away from all types of anxiety stress and workload. Because unlike others he has a big purpose in life apart from money

The most important and effective technique that Elon uses is the batching techniques, Now what does that means. batching means to do two or more works simultaneously...

Before that let me be very clear that multitasking is very different from batching...

In multitasking, you do more than one important task at a time. completing notes while learning something or attending the online class while solving papers...etc

And batching means to pair a less important and a more important task together...for example...listening to podcasts while gyming... Or eating while attending some important stuff on the net...

Now this will help you with your time management...you will get  time for others

Elon does the same to save his time so effectively. Even you can do this by just dividing the work properly. For example instead of chatting and viewing messages and notifications every time, just collect them and you can just reply them at once..while relaxing yourself...

Time blocking tech....this is just to divide your whole day into several small parts...in which you have to assign yourself time to complete your important stuff.

Planning....even after knowing what's important we seem to procrastinate it...it just because of lack of planning....once you start to plan yourself success will plan itself for you, Elon just takes time for planning his whole day so that he can work with a schedule and without getting distracted can complete them. Elon plans his day just to avoid wasting time thinking about what to do next.

Elon follows Parkinson's law which states that we tend to take all the time given to us to complete even a simple task.... this means even for completion of simple tasks we take much more time and complete it just before the deadline. To know more about this topic refer to my blog Predictably Irrational

So Mr musk plans his important work with assigning proper times to each one...
Now the very important point which makes him what he is his nature of being curious...he always tends to learn something new...he is always ready to learn and explore new things till he doesn't know 90% of the subject. For example, Elon always used to ask his engineers very deep and different questions about the machines they were working on.. now this use to frighten the employees as they thought their boss was taking their exam...but in real Elon just wanted to know and learn everything which made him curious.... and this habit made him learn much more than anyone out there... it's just a matter of never stop learning.


So how long should you try? Until your Impossible is changed to Done.

These were some very basic lessons from this book...if you wanna know the detailed study of his life from childhood till now...just leave a comment...
