ABOUT THIS BOOK
Few people realize that many of the bad consequences of their financial decisions are due to factors completely beyond their control.
Blinded by a false belief that willpower is all that is needed, people become frustrated because they do not get the results they wanted despite their best efforts, without taking into account the existence of two unavoidable forces in life that often determine our destiny: luck and risk.
Luck and risk are manifestations of the fact that every outcome in life is influenced by forces other than individual effort. They are so similar as they manifest themselves in everyday life that it can be too difficult to distinguish one from the other.
Why do these two forces interfere with our existence? For the simple undeniable fact that the world is too large and complex to allow all of our actions or decisions to determine one hundred percent of our outcomes.
You can look at it this way: although you are the protagonist of your life, you actually share the same playing field with billions of other people, each with their own agenda. Therefore, it is impossible for you to be the protagonist of the game and things cannot turn out just the way you want them to.
This is not to say that all is lost and that you should not strive to achieve the financial success of your dreams. The point is to learn to distinguish the presence of luck and risk, especially when comparing your situation with that of other successful entrepreneurs. Here you will learn how.
