Elon Musk has been changing the way we think of energy, automobiles, and space travel for over a decade. He is an inspiring figure who has achieved the impossible with his sheer determination and vision. Born in South Africa, Elon was always an intellectually gifted child. Despite being bullied for his nerdy qualities and being afraid of the dark, he pursued his dreams relentlessly.
At the age of 24, he moved to America where he co-founded PayPal. This revolutionary payment system revolutionized online transactions and changed our modern lives forever. With the success of PayPal, Elon turned his attention to renewable energy solutions and started SolarCity – now one of the largest solar energy providers in the US. He then went on to launch Tesla Motors – a high-end electric car company that aimed to make electric cars cool again. With extreme dedication and perseverance, even when facing financial struggles during recession and harsh criticism from media outlets like Top Gear, Tesla made its mark as Motor Trend’s Car of The Year in 2012 – all thanks to Musk’s risk taking attitude!
But this was far from it – Musk didn’t let anyone bring him down by keeping his head in the clouds (literally!) His company SpaceX became the first commercial company to send cargo to the International Space Station – thus making space exploration more accessible than ever before!
