outliers


Outliers

Outliers explains how people are successful in the most logical ways. It goes over many different scenarios of how the patterns of success work. It doesn't only tell us about how people are successful, but it also shows us how some of the brightest just missed the boat of success.

I like this book because, I need facts and multiple examples to understand what he is trying to get across. I also like how it shows that success isn’t luck based and that if your in the right day and age you most likely will become successful.

The book explained the patterns of success over many different stories and gave many examples. Outliers also never really brought one race up or destroyed another because if it explained the advantages of a certain group of people then he explained the advantages of other races. 

Not only does it give example of why certain people are successful but he also explains that though practice, and more practice you can become very successful at what you do. if you like to learn about learning and how successful people are successful then this is the book for you.

the book has proven to be correct in my life because my father does software sales and he is fairly successful, but if he were older he wouldn’t have known about software sales because companies weren’t buying software. if he were younger then the software would have already been in place, so that just puts him in the right area to be a software   sales person and because of that he’s successful.
