Keep this in mind : This Is not about their stardom but a step prior to stardom thats least discussed


Once an ambitious internet entrepreneur, Musk's insatiable curiosity led him to look beyond the digital frontier. His investments in SpaceX and Tesla were not mere business decisions; they were bold declarations of a future where humanity thrives among the stars and on a sustainable Earth.

Investing in SpaceX and Tesla. Despite skepticism and immense challenges, Musk's decision to invest his PayPal fortune into SpaceX and Tesla was a pivotal moment. It was a move driven by his vision for a sustainable future and human life on Mars, rather than immediate financial gain. This leap of faith not only revolutionized space travel and the automotive industry but also cemented his status as a pioneer of sustainable technology.



The story of Jack Ma begins with the resolve of an English teacher facing rejection after rejection. Undeterred, Ma founded Alibaba, envisioning a marketplace that connects the smallest vendors to the global stage, revolutionizing e-commerce and proving that persistence can indeed reshape the world.



Investing in Alibaba. Masayoshi Son, already a successful entrepreneur, made a minute but momentous move by investing $20 million in Alibaba. This was when Alibaba was just a fledgling company, and the internet landscape in China was uncertain. Son's decision was not based on spreadsheets or market analyses but on his gut feeling about Jack Ma's potential and vision. This investment turned out to be one of the most lucrative in history, highlighting Son's ability to recognize and act on transformative opportunities.

Son met with Jack Ma and, within minutes, decided to invest $20 million in Alibaba. He made this decision based on his assessment of Ma's character and vision rather than on detailed business plans or financial projections.


Reflect : What small action can you initiate today that might spark your Minute Move discovery, no matter how modest it may be?


What More Can You Do?

  • Reflect on the Unseen: Consider the paths not yet taken. What whispers of the future resonate with you? Start by journaling these inklings of ideas, however faint they may be.
  • Learn from the Giants: Immerse yourself in the biographies of visionaries. Understand their mindset, the risks they took, and the resilience they embodied. Recommended reads include biographies of Musk, Ma, and Son, offering insights into their journeys from dreamers to pioneers.


What Else Can You Explore?

  • Embrace Their Journeys : Absorb the life lessons of contemporary titans. Begin with essential reads like "Elon Musk: Tesla, SpaceX, and the Quest for a Fantastic Future" by Ashlee Vance, "Alibaba: The House That Jack Ma Built" by Duncan Clark, and "SoftBank: Visionary Investing in the Information Age" by Atsuo Inoue.


What Next Steps Can You Take?

Elon Musk - Embrace Curiosity and Innovation

Masayoshi Son - Seeing The Tomorrow, Today

  • Next Minute Step: Research a technology or start-up that aligns with your belief in future trends. It can be as simple as reading an article, listening to a podcast, or watching a documentary about it. If possible, consider making a small investment or offering your skills to the project.
