史考特·亚当斯,影响世界的《呆伯特》漫画作者、职业演说家、畅销书作家。在《我的人生样样稀松照样赢》中,他以其独特的诙谐手法写下了他对成功的种种思考,以及他是如何与失败相处,最终走向成功的,并对关于成功要素的陈词滥调进行了讽刺,鼓励人们根据自己的情况去探索属于自己的成功模式。他认为目标是属于失败者的,大多数成功者追随的是系统,而不是目标。对于大多数人来说,最好还是“擅长两种互补技能,而不是仅仅在一个方面优秀……当我把平庸的业务技能与糟糕的艺术技巧以及我相当普通的写作才能结合起来时,得到的力量是强大的。”
史考特·亚当斯还提出了关于激情的看法,他表示成功者经常把激情说成自己成功的一个原因,是因为“所有人都可以对一些东西或其他东西有激情”。在他看来,激情是成功的副产品,而不是它的先决条件。

Scott Adams has likely failed at more things than anyone you’ve ever met or anyone you’ve even heard of. So how did he go from hapless office worker and serial failure to the creator of Dilbert, one of the world’s most famous syndicated comic strips, in just a few years? In How to Fail at Almost Everything and Still Win Big, Adams shares the strategy he has used since he was a teen to invite failure in, to embrace it, then pick its pocket.
No career guide can offer advice for success that works for everyone. As Adams explains, your best bet is to study the ways of others who made it big and try to glean some tricks and strategies that make sense for you. Adams pulls back the covers on his own unusual life and shares what he learned for turning one failure after another into something good and lasting. Adams reveals that he failed at just about everything he’s tried, including his corporate career, his inventions, his investments, and his two restaurants. But there’s a lot to learn from his personal story, and a lot of humor along the way. While it’s hard for anyone to recover from a personal or professional failure, Adams discovered some unlikely truths that helped to propel him forward. For instance:
• Goals are for losers. Systems are for winners.
• “Passion” is bull. What you need is personal energy.
• A combination of mediocre skills can make you surprisingly valuable.
• You can manage your odds in a way that makes you look lucky to others.
