<b>What is your favorite resource for learning to think 10 steps ahead? </b><br />
<br />
What questions does a very forward thinker ask that less forward thinkers do not ask?<br />
<br />
What questions does Elon Musk ask? How does he approach things differently from not Elon Musks?<br />
<br />
I feel limited by the questions I ask. Like I stay 2 or 3 steps ahead at best. I want new ways to train my brain to think more forwardly. Not some quick-fix solution, but like daily questions or practices to build a new style of thinking into habit.<br />
<br />
Any suggestions? Books, podcasts, or anything else are welcome.

</blockquote>I just bring up some points that I read from elsewhere.<br />

I think you are referral to strategic plays rather than tactical plays.<br />
<br />
Strategies are based on facts and research and micro-observations that you believe are correct. From all these facts and details you craft strategies that best suit to your goal and circumstances.<br />
<br />
If the micros are wrong the macro will be screwed up too.<br />
<br />
That’s why you can have two smart people who totally disagree on the strategy.<br />
<br />
The most familiar strategy is the “lean start up approach to business”.<br />
<br />
Assumptions<br />
-Most ideas will fail<br />
-most ideas fail because they are not market tested<br />
-More companies and business go bust because they over-invest time and money in ideas they think can work but have no market feedback<br />
<br />
Strategic adjustment<br />
-develop low cost prototype to gather feedback<br />
-Discard ideas with bad market feedback based on the mvp<br />
-Double down investment when feedback is good.<br />
<br />
In short avoid financial destruction before you hit your home run.<br />
<br />
This is just one example on how to derive your own strategic insight.<br />
<br />
A few years later after the birth of the idea of lean start up, Xiao Mi founder expanded on the strategy into a 2.0 version. <br />
<br />
“Since start-up is a constant trial and error process, the only thing that matters is speed.<br />
<br />
The faster you do things, fail things and restart, the higher chance you are going to make it sooner.”</div>
