EARLY REVIEWS
"Sometimes I say things so profound people think they're stupid. And sometimes I say things so stupid people think they're profound."
— Elon Musk
"The only book an entrepreneur needs."
— Naval Ravikant, Co-founder of AngelList
"You may not agree with everything he says, but at the end of the day Elon is going to take us to Mars, give people anywhere on Earth high-speed internet, allow people to walk again, and a ton of other things that we would have once thought impossible. So it'd be foolish to think there is nothing you can learn from him."
— MrBeast, World's Biggest YouTuber
"This book is a rich collection of Elon's most useful ideas."
— David Senra, host of Founders podcast
ABOUT THE BOOK
Do you have a nagging fear that your work isn't truly important? Or that your potential greatness will wither, unrealized? Most people never feel purpose in their work. They never bring their full energy to a meaningful mission. Purpose and intensity are Elon Musk's superpowers. He chooses colossal missions. Then he is maniacal, creative, and relentless in pursuit of success. It's not charm, luck, or genius that made him the wealthiest person on Earth. It's his mindset. Musk's mindset is laid out clearly in this book, the result of five years of work, distilling millions of words into an easy read. Eric Jorgenson also wrote The Almanack of Naval Ravikant, a word-of-mouth phenomenon with millions of readers in 40+ languages. This isn't a biography or a cheesy self-help book. Instead, through Musk's own words, you will feel personally mentored to lead a rich life full of purpose, passion, and prosperity.
Author Eric Jorgenson says, "The mission of this book is to create one million musks. To inspire the next generation of entrepreneurs to solve 'impossible' problems, push humanity forward, and become trillionaires themselves. Some of the smartest and hardest-working people in the world live in India, and I believe these ideas will help them achieve their dreams."
Sachin Sharma, Publisher, HarperCollins India, says, "Who could have predicted, looking back through history, that an engineer would one day become the world's richest person and transform humanity with his groundbreaking ideas? Now, imagine being mentored by him directly, hearing his thoughts without any filters. The Book of Elon captures Elon Musk's greatest lessons in his own words, making it the ultimate guide for any aspiring entrepreneur."
