Quests of winners. How to overcome difficulties without losing optimism.

Reality is often not at all as we imagine it. The same goes for success - it's not just about "working hard." The path to success is paradoxical, complex, and resembles a game of Russian roulette. Firstly, not everyone dares to play it - that is, to embark on the road to success. And secondly, the path to this peak is littered with the phantoms of those who couldn't make it, didn't reach it, or overestimated their abilities. But we will never know about them - we don't like to talk about failures. By looking at reality from all sides, we can avoid the mistakes of those who didn't make it. By orienting ourselves towards the winners, we can assess our resources and do what we can now, rather than what we would have wanted if only... There are three components to successfully completing the quests of winners: control over the situation, involvement in the matter, and acceptance of the inevitability of risk. This book tells how to take into account the mistakes of those who failed, based on the positive examples of those who reached the peaks of success.
