Success and Luck

Robert Frank's "Success and Luck" delves into the often-overlooked role of chance and circumstance in achieving success.

Frank argues that while hard work and talent are essential, luck plays a significant, often underestimated, part in determining outcomes.

He challenges the common narrative that success is solely a product of merit, highlighting the influence of random events and fortunate circumstances.

The book explores the psychological implications of attributing success solely to individual effort, neglecting the role of luck.

Frank's work encourages a more nuanced understanding of success and its determinants.
