Elon Musk, he is an immigrant billionaire. Musk is soon to become a household name around the globe. Many know this man by his three highly successful companies; solar city, Tesla, and Spacex. However, Elon Musk is an inspiration to me ever since I saw him at a TEDx convention when I was 14. Elon Musk is by far the world’s fastest growing billionaire and for good reason. Elon Musk may not be a household name but he plays a very important role in how I perceive the world. Rather than copy the work of others and improve upon it, Musk creates and molds the future of our society as we know it today. When I first saw the work of Elon Musk I did not even know what it was. What I saw was the Tesla Model S. This futuristic fully electric car, grabbed …show more content…
Elon Musk may be an entrepreneur, but he is also a genius. You do not frequently see a person that delves into three completely different companies and teach it to themselves completely. Many may not know this, but Elon Musk taught himself Quantum physics. The reason Elon Musk changed how I perceive problems is the way he attacks conflicts and hits it right at the heart. For example, the world needs a safe and reliable alternative to fossil fuels. However, not only does Elon Musk go out and solve one big issue he solves two more at the same time. Elon Musk is a pioneer in three completely different fields of business. The reason I am able to admire him as much as I do is the fact that he didn’t stop after he made some money he went out and created 3 companies with the money he …show more content…
When I picture Elon Musk I see him being one of the richest people in the world in the next twenty years. Already in five years has Elon Musk grown 100 million dollars into a 30 billion dollar empire that we now know today as his top companies. This man is such an influence on my life, he has taught me that reading is the best way to learn and gain knowledge. People wonder how Musk grew his business into what it is today. In laymen’s terms all Musk has done is read thousands of books and learn from them. Ever since I started reading more and more in high school I have learned that not only has my vocabulary increased but how I communicate with others as well. In addition, I have learned to perceive and tackle problems I encounter in divergent way than before. The only real person I can accredit for my astounding increase in life is Elon Musk because I took his way of life to heart and put it to use in my own
All my money has been invested into experiments with which I have made new discoveries enabling mankind to have a little easier life,” Tesla (1927). This philosophy of Tesla hold true on both accounts, Tesla did make life easier for mankind and he did invest all his money attempting to accomplish that task. “Despite his accomplishments, however, Tesla died penniless and without the accolades that would he would ultimately earn over a century later,” according to Whipps (2014). Aside from the above quote which reminds us of how determined Tesla was, we have various technologies that current culture utilizes on an everyday basis which solidifies his importance on society. For example, Tesla is responsible solely for or developing the technology or methods which enable, alternating current, light, x-rays, radios, remote controls, electric motors, robotics, lasers, wireless communications and potential limitless free energy. An argument could be made that Tesla has had such a profound influence on our society that the inevitable switch to battery operated, fully automatized motor vehicles is led by a company which utilizes the brand name of
If any one quality of Musk was picked out by its uniqueness, then it would be his uncanny ability to choose the given option that would ultimately result in the brightest future for humanity. It isn’t difficult for one to perceive after spending some time with him how much his decisions have shaped him and his future. If three of Musk’s decisions were to be picked out to define who he is, then those three decisions would have to be his choice to create a website that would ultimately become PayPal, his determination to shape the automotive business into a more eco-friendly industry, and his legendary resolve to try to land a human being on Mars.
Elon musk is considered visionary entrepreneur, because he is a risk taker and a billionaire entrepreneur. He is CEO of many companies and inspires people to follow their dreams and to maybe be as successful as him. His journey and all his success speaks for itself. His vision for Tesla Motor’s is to produce high efficiency low cost vehicles to reduce gas emission lowering pollution and to move toward a safer renewable world. His main goal is to transition into more sustainable energy and to be less reliant on fossil fuels. Elon is most notorious for his CEO position in Tesla Motors, but he is involved with much more than Tesla. He is involved with SpaceX, The Boring Company, and SolarCity. He is leveraging all aspects of innovation through so many different companies and organizations. Including vehicle production, rocket production, and Hyperloop production. Elon and his team introduce many innovative features to all these different aspects across all levels.
Technology is my passion, mainly anything to do with computers. Being that I’m studying to become a computer programmer, this should come to no surprise. So when asked whom I admire, the obvious would be the likes of Bill Gates, Steve Wozniak, or even Mark Zuckerberg (no matter how counter-productive Facebook can be). Those men are all well known names in the industry, but for me admiration goes deeper than mere achievements, that is why I admire Nikola Tesla. My admiration for Tesla steams from his flaws more than his success. There is something about a human being who is in all respects a genius, but at the same time very much human. Tesla was a man that was so consumed with his work, that he completely lacked self-care and interpersonal
Tesla Motors, Inc. is an American company that designs, manufactures, and sells electric cars and electric vehicle powertrain components. Tesla Motors first gained widespread attention by producing the Tesla Roadster, the first fully electric sports car. The company's second vehicle was the Model S, a fully electric luxury sedan. Tesla also manufactures and sells electric powertrain components, including lithium-ion battery packs, to automakers, including Daimler and Toyota. Tesla's CEO, Elon Musk, has said he envisions Tesla as an independent automaker, with the goal of eventually offering electric cars at a price affordable to the average consumer. Lithium- ion cell commoditization and high-end product strategy shield the company from significant interdependence and integration risk.
As this journey continues in my life, I am happy that I’m almost to the end of my journey. But learning is like and endless line, one can never get too much of it. For what we have knowledge of are pinch of glass of water from the ocean of education. Looking forward on becoming more literate for it will guarantee me respect, credibility and high economic status from society. My early journey of literacy has allowed me to be reach a level my parents and I can be proud of. Now my curiosity not only partakes in literacy but also to a successful future.
Donald Trump is not only one of the world’s richest men, but one of its most recognizable. Despite a privileged upbringing, he did not inherit anything, and went on to fame and fortune thanks to his business accomplishments and natural instincts.
Growing up in working class family, my mom worked all the time for the living of a big family with five kids, and my dad was in re-education camp because of his association with U.S. government before 1975. My grandma was my primary guardian. “Go to study, go to read your books, read anything you like to read if you want to have a better life,” my grandma kept bouncing that phrase in my childhood. It becomes the sole rule for me to have better future. I become curious and wonder what the inside of reading and write can make my life difference. In my old days, there was no computer, no laptop, no phone…etc, to play or to spend time with, other than books. I had no other choice than read, and read and tended to dig deep in science books, math books, and chemistry books. I tended to interest in how the problem was solved. I even used my saving money to buy my own math books to read more problems and how to solve the problem. I remembered that I ended up reading the same math book as my seventh grade teacher. She used to throw the challenge questions on every quiz to pick out the brighter student. There was few students know how to solve those challenge questions. I was the one who fortunately nailed it every single time. My passion and my logic for reading and writing came to me through that experience, and also through my grandma and my mom who plant the seed in me, who want their kids to have happy and better life than they were. In my own dictionary, literacy is not just the ability to read and write, it is a strong foundation to build up the knowledge to have better life, to become who I am today.
Although a loss in the family severely hurt Tesla and his family, he still succeeded in life. He invented many things that we still use today and has even brought us together as a people. Tesla will forever remain a famous inventor to the world, and his success will live on with his name. His understanding of electricity and how things work will forever remain a part of humanity today.
Electric cars are attempting to bring on an uprising. A modern company, Tesla Motors, is bringing the all-electric car to life. Tesla has been very successful in the past couple of years, engineering a vehicle that will impress safety standards. Although it has been quite a bumpy ride along the way for CEO and founder Elon Musk of Tesla Motors. Tesla has big plans for the future. However, the plans will not be necessary unless Tesla is allowed to sell their vehicles directly to the consumer and not through dealerships.
Tesla Motors initially gained widespread attention by manufacturing the Tesla Roadster, the primary totally electrical sports automobile. The company's second vehicle was the Model S, a completely electrical luxury sedan. Tesla additionally markets electrical powertrain elements, as well as lithium-ion battery packs, to automakers, as well as engineer and Toyota. Tesla's CEO, Elon Musk, has said he envisions Tesla as an independent maker, geared toward eventually providing electrical cars worth cheap to the typical client.
“Who do you think is the greatest inventor to ever walk on the earth?” If a group of people were to be asked this question the responses would surely be predictable; Albert Einstein, Steve Jobs, Samuel F.B. Morse, or the obvious Thomas Edison. However, if this group knew the life and contributions of Serbian- American scientist and inventor, Nikola Tesla, all of their answers would surely change. You may not be able to say that “Tesla” is a house hold name, on the other hand, his idea and contributions to technology continue to exist in our households themselves. Despite his lack of funds, Tesla managed nearly three hundred patents. Many of the inventions for which these patents were issued still exist in our every lives; the remote control, the induction motor, and the radio are just a few pieces of technology that were helped brought to life by the mind of Nikola Tesla. In addition to these physical innovations, Tesla also discovered more efficient and economic ways to transport and transform electrical energy. Every time a cell phone charger is plugged into the wall, or a television is turned on, the type of electricity that passes through the device is alternating current, a theory developed and utilized by Tesla. The system of power lines that run from the power plant to the homes across the globe was also an Idea of Tesla. These innovations would arguably, in the opinion of many, make Nikola Tesla the greatest inventor who ever lived. No one man ever accomplished so much by himself.
is a great example of how Wozniak demonstrates how dedicated he is to helping people and making things that he loves to use. As Wozniak is talking to David he tells him, “ oh no I've actually been here before I've addressed business groups I've addressed education groups…I do a lot of this actually” (Interview with Steve Wozniak). Personally I think that Steve Wozniak has been a great influence on people throughout his life. He really seems to enjoy speaking at conferences all over the world going there to talk about his life as an engineer, his life at Apple, and his life
Bill Gates Through his intelligence and excellent business skills, Bill Gates was able to change the world. As a technological genius, he founded the world's largest software company. He has also been extremely generous, donating more than $30 billion as a philanthropist. He is, without a doubt, a catalyst for change, tirelessly working to make the world a better place.
Nikola Tesla a man enshrouded in mystery that had been forgotten in history. He was a mastermind of inventions and innovations. He alone created alternating currents and generators, a way to freely transmit electricity, and an idea of free wireless energy for all. If Tesla had more of a chance to finish his crowning achievement it everyone could have free wireless energy.
