In a book on how to succeed, the author shows through a unique statistical perspective that success is accumulated by subjective factors such as opportunity, talent, IQ, imagination, and 10,000 hours of deliberate practice, and is also affected by cultural background and regional attributes. Success is never a random event, but is forged by a powerful set of predictable environmental advantages and opportunities.
This book uses the best people in various fields as examples, and uses various related experiments to reveal the mysteries.
The law of success is not without a trace, and it is not even what we think. The chapters of this book explain how geniuses that are different from ordinary people are formed, and some laws about novelty make people "suddenly understand" when they read, which is a purely scientific success science.
The book is divided into three parts, the first part is the introduction part, the second part is mainly about opportunities, and the third part is about cultural inheritance.
There is no fairness in this world, and there is no alien existence, but some people have taken advantage of the time and place on the diligent road to make themselves "aliens".
The so-called "outlier" has never been an outlier, but more than ordinary people, more in pursuit of the development law behind things, more good at summarizing methods, more know how to apply the accumulation of advantages to create self-worth, just because in this way in the wind of the times, go with the trend, become the "alien" in the eyes of ordinary people
Chris. Rangan, the most intelligent person in the united states, lived a life of debauchery.
The tallest oak tree in the forest grows tallest not only because it has a highest quality seed, but also because it does not block the sunlight from other large trees during the growth process, the soil in which it grows is deep and fertile, it does not encounter rabbits nibbling on the bark when it is still a seedling, and it has not been cut down after it grows.
The so-called successful people are the products of a specific time, a specific place, and a specific environment. It can also be said that the result of the accumulation of advantages.
The so-called "outlier" is a person with good opportunities. Good opportunities, good birth conditions, good external environment, and good social change have given him "advantage accumulation", and at the same time, he is still in a suitable cultural background, and these factors together create an "outlier".
The wise Jews, with many Nobel Prizes in their hands, hold most of the world's assets and give us directions for educating our children. A good cultural background, there will be good habits and thinking, happy to accept that growth is their own business, everything around them is auxiliary, even if the assistance is not ideal, do not complain more, complaining is just to prove that they are useless, just imagine a person who is full of complaints, not worthy of sympathy, just emphasizing that he is a "complaining woman" in life. Those are ineffective thinking, and it is the most appropriate thing to establish a mechanism to solve problems when encountered.
The so-called success is the result of "advantage accumulation", people who get special opportunities can always work hard and be competent for the mission; people who accompany opportunities can always achieve extraordinary achievements. That is, to become an outlier, in fact, not an outlier, that is, a person who has achieved extraordinary achievements, but I am ultimately convinced that success will still favor those who are prepared!
In short, the formation of the aliens is not a stroke of God, but those who wait patiently, actively prepare, and when the perfect opportunity comes, they will not let them seize it.
Success is made up of a predictable and powerful set of strengths and opportunities. Success is perseverance, perseverance, and the firm belief that others give up in 30 seconds and you spend 22 minutes thinking.
There is a deeper understanding of doing a good job: success = uncontrollable (IQ) + controllable (diligence, emotional intelligence) + semi-controllable (social resources, opportunities). Success requires a combination of many factors, including external and internal factors, and there are many we can not change, including family, country, region, etc., but the extraordinary ability of people is the ability to learn, as long as on the basis of metacognition and continuous iteration, can be infinitely close to success, unfortunately most people can not stick to it, all will be an ordinary thing, has been done, may become extraordinary.
When we encounter setbacks, we encourage ourselves, three points are destined, and seven points rely on hard work. But the reality is that seven points are destined, and three points depend on hard work.
We actually have no outliers, no one is born successful, you are not self-disciplined, not diligent, not persistent, it is difficult to achieve. Therefore, knowing that you are not gifted, you can not change the family background, and finally can only aspire to a good working environment, try to change your destiny, and even help the development of the next generation, you are better than ordinary people, you must pay ten times the efforts of ordinary people. You have to understand that generosity for the future is to give everything to the present. Work and live with the mentality of being born and the attitude of joining the world.
