Contrary take, maybe. World changers are mostly flukes. It’s a set of people who found PMF in unexpectedly big ways. Few or none changed the world on the strength of vision and willpower alone. World changers are just sufficiently special people doing their thing in the right time and place. So read about any sufficiently special person you find especially interesting, unless your goal is history much more than biography. To answer straightforwardly with hopefully less-tired answers: Napoleon Rockefeller Turing
