The Triple Package - Traits That Explain Disproportionate Success
In the book 'The Triple Package,' Amy Chua and Jed Rubenfeld propose three traits that contribute to the disproportionate success of certain ethnic groups in America: a superiority complex, a deep sense of insecurity, and impulse control. The combination of believing in one's exceptionalism while feeling insecure leads to ambition and drive. These traits can be observed in various successful cultural groups, such as Jews, Mormons, and ethnic Chinese. The authors argue that it is not genetics but cultural upbringing that cultivates these traits.
