Thoughts

Elon到了加拿大，開始了他的大學(xué)生活。

1.堅持不懈

He could call very insistently, You always knew it was Elon because the phone would never stop ringing.

2.專注力

When Elon gets into something, he develops just this different level of interest in it than other people. That is what differentiates Elon from the rest of humanity

But for Musk, the distinction between stumbling into something and having intent is important.

這里又看到了Elon驚人的專注力，只要他感興趣的，就可以到達一個專業(yè)的深度。

3.不隨波逐流，堅定的做自己

He wasn't just sniffing out trends, and he wasn't consumed by the idea of getting rich. He's been in pursuit of a master plan all along

他沉浸在自己的世界，一直堅持做自己想做的事情。可以想像當(dāng)時他提出做電動車大家都覺得只是個概念而已，可是他卻堅持著，讓這個概念成為了事實。曾經(jīng)看到一個報道說他是外星人，到火星的飛船，還有真空隧道。。。

如果心里有一個一定要達到的目標(biāo)，就會有行動力朝著目標(biāo)努力了，如果自己還沒有動起來，可能是這個目標(biāo)還不夠有吸引力。
