Musk needs a year long retreat in "Thoreau's cabin on Walden Pond" to
reflect upon this/that.

Since his programming days, he's been absorbed in other ventures,
which does not allow for philosophical/social considerations.

He perceives himself as an Alpha Male instead of a person who gained
success by others.

He has not listened to Andrew Carnegie:

No man will make a great leader who wants to do it all himself or get
all the credit for doing it.

I shall argue that strong men, conversely, know when to compromise and
that all principles can be compromised to serve a greater principle.

It marks a big step in your development when you come to realize that
other people can help you do a better job than you could do alone.
