Hyperloop: Elon Musk’s Wild Idea Set To Become Reality In 2016

When Elon Musk , the Tesla CEO, first proposed his idea of Hyperloop —a long system of pressurized tubes that would allow for super-high-speed of 800 mph travel between San Francisco and Los Angeles— in 2013, the concept was thought of a geek fantasy.
But now Hyperloop Transportation Technologies has closed a deal with developers of Quay Valley in central California to begin construction of world’s first supersonic overland transport system along a stretch of road right near the Interstate 5 freeway between San Francisco and Los Angeles.
Construction of the first 5-mile Hyperloop stretch will start in 2016, get completed by 2019 and will cost about $100 million. Almost 200 engineers from NASA, Yahoo!, and Airbus are involved in the project realization. There is also a group of 25 students from University of California working on different issues including cost estimation, route planning, and capsule design. The estimated cost of the full Hyperloop, which would run 400 miles in length between the two cities, is $8 billion.
“This five-mile stretch will allow us to completely test the technology, from the boarding process to the safety procedures – really everything except top speed,” said Dirk Ahlborn, CEO of Hyperloop Transportation Technologies (HTT). “We will move people and cargo at speeds never thought possible. We will make the world smaller, cleaner and more efficient,” states HTT on their official website.
The Hyperloop is the idea of Tesla Motors and Space Exploration Technologies founder Musk, who outlined a vision for transporting people at high speeds in capsules that will be pushed through a series of tubes stretching over thousands of miles. After announcing his idea, Musk said he would not fund or actively work on any projects to build the Hyperloop. Musk has since announced plans to build a Hyperloop test track in Texas.
The Hyperloop, which Musk dubs “the fifth mode”, would be as fast as a plane, cheaper than a train, weather-proof, and will emit no carbon from the tailpipe. If people could get from Los Angeles to Las Vegas in 20 minutes, or New York to Philly in 10, cities become metro stops and borders evaporate, along with housing price imbalances and overcrowding.

Resilience: An Emotional Intelligence Competency We Need Today
We are focusing more now on emotional intelligence (EQ), as it becomes increasingly evident that it can be the crucial factor in determining success and happiness in our careers and relationships. Once we have the fundamentals in place--education, expertise, and skills--how we handle ourselves and others is what makes the difference.
Resilience is an important EQ competency. It means being able to bounce back after setbacks, failures, disappointments and losses. It means not giving up, and continuing to face the future with optimism and courage despite events. Because life will have its ups and downs, one of the most important things we can do is learn how to bolster our resilience. We can do this by understanding the competencies that make people resilient and then working with a coach to improve our skills in these areas.
Being resilient is going to be extremely important in the future as the pace of change continues to escalate.
People who are the most resilient have these competencies:
1. They are reflective, able to look back on experiences and extract the kernels of wisdom from them.

People who are the most resilient have these competencies:
1. They are reflective, able to look back on experiences and extract the kernels of wisdom from them.
2. They don't back off from realisty, but face it squarely, labeling things for what they are--setbacks, losses, disappointments.
3. They know their feelings, label them correctly, and express them fluently and routinely to others.
4. They are able to separate timezones--past from present from future.
5. They commit to the agony of grieving for as long as it takes.
6. They find meaning and purpose in their struggles, knowing that they will benefit in the end by a greater understanding of the fundamentals of live.
7. They have a high EQ, including being able to think flexibly and creatively under stress. They expand rather than shut down when faced with a challenge.
8. They keep a reserve of energy built up through regular periods of rest and renewal.
9. They have a strong network of individuals they can depend upon, and who know and accept them as they are.
