They are simply those who have more social power—the ability to influence other people. A more descriptive term for elites is “power holders.”
“Congratulations!
Today is your day
You're off to great places
You're off and away
You've got brains in your head
You've got feet in your shoes
You can steer yourself any
Direction you choose
You're on your own
And you know what you know
And you are the guy
Who'll decide where you go
Out there things can happen
And frequently do
To people as brainy
And footsy as you
And will you succeed?
Yes you will indeed!
(98 and 3/4 percent guaranteed)
You're off to great places
Today is your day
Your mountain is waiting
Go, get on your way!”

“I deal with writer’s block by lowering my expectations. I think the trouble starts when you sit down to write and imagine that you will achieve something magical and magnificent—and when you don’t, panic sets in. The solution is never to sit down and imagine that you will achieve something magical and magnificent. I write a little bit, almost every day, and if it results in two or three or (on a good day) four good paragraphs, I consider myself a lucky man. Never try to be the hare. All hail the tortoise.”
