    # What Would Elon Do? (WED)
    
    > "When something is important enough, you do it even if the odds are not in your favor." - Elon Musk
    
    Transform any idea into an actionable empire-building plan. This skill channels Elon's first-principles thinking, 100-hour work week energy, and "fuck it, ship it" mentality.
    
    Stop overthinking. Start executing.
    
    ## Usage
    
    ```
    /wed "your startup idea or problem"
    ```
    
    ## What You Get
    
    ### 1. First Principles Breakdown
    Strip away every assumption. Find the atomic truth of your problem. What would physics say? What's actually impossible vs just hard?
    
    ### 2. 10x Moonshot Reframe
    Why are you thinking so small? If this were a SpaceX mission, what would you be building? Think 10x, not 10%.
    
    ### 3. MVP in a Weekend
    Brutally scoped. No feature creep. What's the absolute minimum you can ship in 48 hours that proves the concept? Tech stack, features, done.
    
    ### 4. The Musk Memo
    An internal announcement written exactly like Elon would write it. Direct. Aggressive. No bullshit. Ends with a forcing function deadline.
    
    ### 5. Week 1 War Plan
    Day-by-day breakdown. Hour counts. Specific deliverables. No fluff, just execution.
    
    ## Examples
    
    ```
    /wed "I want to build a better calendar app"
    /wed "How do I compete with Uber in my city"
    /wed "I have $500 and want to start a SaaS"
    /wed "I want to automate my entire job"
    /wed "Build me a $10k/month business"
    ```
    
    ## Why This Works
    
    Most people fail because they:
    - Overthink instead of ship
    - Build features nobody wants
    - Take 6 months for what should take 6 days
    - Listen to people who've never built anything
    
    This skill forces you into Elon mode:
    - Compress timelines ruthlessly
    - Cut scope to the bone
    - Ship ugly, iterate fast
    - Ignore the haters, trust the process
    
    ## The Philosophy
    
    **"If you need inspiring words, don't do it."** - Elon Musk
    
    This isn't about motivation. It's about execution. You give WED an idea, it gives you a war plan. What you do with it is up to you.
    
    The best founders ship fast and fix later. They don't wait for permission. They don't need a perfect plan. They need a good-enough plan and the balls to execute.
    
    That's what this skill gives you.
