How to Fail at Almost Everthing and Still Win Big

This book is written by Scott Adams, most famous for his ‘Dilbert Comics’, pretty sarcastic, with a pinch of truth, comics about the working environment. 

I like his approach to success. Firstly he acknowledges that luck, also circumstances and timing, plays a major role in success. Then he suggests what needs to be done:

1.  To develop energy. His point is that one can’t make it without a good level of energy.

2. To give luck a better chance to find you. Sounds initially funny, though he has good arguments what needs to be done in order to increase your chances of success.

Easy reading with many useful suggestions, combined with plenty of personal experiences.
