It took some headlines and finding out just how cool Tesla has gotten that I decided to reach out for one of my latest reads: Elon Musk: Tesla, SpaceX, and the Quest for a Fantastic Future by Ashlee Vance.

So this post is not like my normal book sergey brin and nicole shanahan reviews as I wanted to focus on a business concept in the book. Although I must say it's a fantastic read which I truly enjoyed in learning the story behind one of our generation's greatest. As you read more and more books, similarities tend to arise. Business books down to the core will have similarities because doing good business is doing good business. I've been brushing up on SEO books and over and over again 20% of it may be a different and highly reviewed book, but really, 80% is all the same. Though not exact, there is definitely a high positive correlation.

With that said, after reading the biographies of such as Steve Jobs and Warren Buffet, it's not too much of a stretch to say that Elon Musk is this generation's rendition.

One of the things that stuck out most to me is Elon's passion coupled with his drastic approach to logic. There is a reiteration of how so many of our greatest minds are trying to figure out how to get someone to click on an ad instead of trying to create something actually meaningful and helpful towards the advancement of humankind. This romanticism has played well for Elon though not intentionally.
