Elon Musk's five-step algorithm for manufacturing works in your life too: question why you do things, cut the pointless tasks, focus on what matters most, compress timelines, and automate or delegate the rest.
Chapters
Elon's algorithm for improving anything is also an algorithm for improving life. So first, question all the requirements. Second, delete stupid requirements. Third, optimize. Fourth, accelerate time cycles. And then fifth, automate. And so if you think about how we apply that to life, it's question why you should be doing stuff to begin with. Second, delete the dumb stuff that doesn't get to where you want to go. Third, pursue opportunities that get you the most bang for the buck. Fourth, try and figure out how you can do it in 1/10 the time. And finally, get other people or other things to pursue it without you while maintaining the benefits.
