Wisdom Practice - Understanding Elon Musk, Understanding Ourselves

 In this eposide, Gregg, Dave, and Ron use an interview of Elon Musk to see what Elon’s story triggers in them. Why do I react the way that I do? Do I like him? Do I judge him? Am I impressed, why or why not? We unpack our reactions, and become more self-aware. It can be a worthwhile trip, to dive beneath our first impressions.

The tech billionaire Elon Musk has come to define innovation, but he can also be a lightning rod for controversy; he recently endorsed antisemitic remarks on X, formerly known as Twitter, which prompted companies to pull their advertising. In his interview, Musk discusses his emotional state and why he has “no problem being hated.” This interview was with Andrew Ross Sorkin of The New York Times at the annual Deal Book Summit and recorded live in front of an audience at Jazz at Lincoln Center.Read more highlights from the day at http://www.nytimes.com/2023/11/29/dea...
