Today at an Instant
Topics:
- Unified Field Theory
- The Knowledge Tree
Key Takeaways:
- Actively absorb and learn as much as possible from all disciplines
- With knowledge unrelated to your interests: connect those to what you currently know in your area of interest
- Unify all the twigs into trunks to create an ecosystem for your ideas and products
Unified Field Theory
SourceA unified field theory is a theoretical physics framework that explains all forces and particles within the universe. But little do you know, it is a huge part of Musk's strategy.
From Elon Musk: Tesla, SpaceX, and the Quest for a Fantastic Future
Before, Musk was at the same time Tesla's and SpaceX's CEO and SolarCity's chairman. As a result,
- SolarCity offered free charging to Tesla Roadster owners at its charging stations
- Tesla and SpaceX exchange knowledge around materials, manufacturing techniques, and the intricacies of operating factories
- A lot more...
Here, the unified field theory of Elon Musk is born. The forces and particles (Musk's businesses) become a part of the universe (the energy and tech empire Musk has built).
With this unified field theory, Musk can achieve competitive advantages against other businesses with these superior partnerships.
The Knowledge Tree Pt. 1
SourceThink of the world of knowledge as a huge tree, where each individual fact is a leaf. These leaves are connected through twigs, which are then connected through branches. The only way to anchor your knowledge is to see how knowledge are connected together through the twigs and the branches.
The Knowledge Tree shows us that all knowledge and facts in the world are connected. Everything will become interesting when you see the bigger picture.
From Elon Musk: Tesla, SpaceX, and the Quest for a Fantastic Future
With The Knowledge Tree mindset, Musk combines skills and knowledge from business, energy and engineering, ultimately creating a unified field theory of his own.
Now the question is, how do you harness the unified field theory in your life with The Knowledge Tree mindset?
- Actively absorb and learn as much as possible from all disciplines
- With knowledge unrelated to your interests: connect those to what you currently know in your area of interest
- Unify all the twigs into trunks to create an ecosystem for your ideas and products
