Notice: This is a book brief summary of How to Fail at ALMOST ANYTHING and Still Get Big: Kind of the storyline of My Life by Scott Adams Original book description: Blasting clichéd career advice, the contrarian pundit and inventor of Dilbert recounts the funny pros and cons of his career, disclosing the outsized role of good luck inside our lives and how better to play the system. Scott Adams has likely failed at more things than anyone you've ever before met or anyone you've even heard about. So how do he go from hapless office employee and serial failing to the inventor of Dilbert, one of the world's most well-known syndicated comic strips, in simply a few years? In How to Fail at ALMOST ANYTHING and Still Get Big, Adams shares the overall game plan he's implemented since he was a teen: invite failing in, embrace it, then opt for its pocket. No career guide can provide advice that works for everyone. As Adams clarifies, your best wager is to study the ways of others who managed to get big and try to glean some stunts and strategies that produce sense for you. Adams pulls back the covers on his own strange life and shares how he changed one failing after another - including his commercial career, his innovations, his investment funds, and his two restaurants - into something good and prolonged. There's a lot to study from his personal tale, and lots of entertainment along the way. Adams uncovered some unlikely truths that helped to propel him onward. For instance:
- Goals are for losers. Systems are for winners.
- "Enthusiasm" is bull. The thing you need is personal energy.
- A mixture of mediocre skills can make you surprisingly valuable.
- You can manage your odds in a manner that makes you look lucky to others.
