Do you know Elon Musk is the richest man in the world, as of today?
But do you know how many struggles and failures he has gone through ?
From childhood to his SpaceX journey failures.
Every step was crucial and critical with pressure in his life. The traumas he dealt with. I don't think no human has that kind of ability to deal with it.
At the age of 10, kids used to play video games and Elon used to make video games. There is a difference right ?
People only see his success today. But during his school days, he was bullied in school, his parents got divorced, and at the age of 17 he had to move to Canada.
After completing his education, he moved to the USA, where he, along with his brother, started a startup company called ZIP2 with a vision of listing businesses onto an online platform, where everybody can see the stores, map and directions. Elon worked aggressively on coding and his brother, used to meet business owners and request them to register on that online portal for visibility. As time passed, this startup became successful, and they started receiving huge amounts of funds. Soon the motivation became high and they started making software for other businesses.
Elon was ambitious and wanted to enter financial systems. He wanted to launch a digital payment model where all people could make online payments with X (Bank) model. After a lot of ups and downs, he established one of the best online platforms in the USA.
The Real Journey
Elon became a successful man in life and was always fascinated by space technology and during his early age he read a lot about rocket science, Mars, space systems.
After deep research, he finally bought a big warehouse for his space journey. Hired world-class engineers, scientists and started making rockets, with failures stopping every other moment. Elon launched his first mission, Falcon 1, which became one of his biggest failures a tiny glitch spoiled the entire mission. After multiple attempts and massive time consumption, Elon lost the money which he had. He had only 1 rocket launch wealth left. It was his last opportunity for a space journey.
Elon was also into automobiles where he wanted to create electric vehicles with lithium, which was costing him a lot.
From everywhere, financial burden and failures were haunting Elon. Soon, the day arrived when his rocket was finally launched. NASA immediately offered huge wealth for further projects and SpaceX became the world's first private entity in the space industry.
From online banking to SpaceX, Tesla automobiles to involvement in US government elections, social media platforms to Starlink internet services. He has also had a lot of controversies in life.
