요약
"Dilbert creator Scott Adams offers his most personal book ever -- a funny memoir of his many failures and what they eventually taught him about success. How do you go from hapless office worker to world-famous cartoonist and bestselling author in just a few years? No career guide can answer that, and not even Scott Adams (who actually did it) can give you a road map that works for everyone. But there's a lot to learn from his personal story, and a lot of humor along the way. In How to Fail at Almost Everything and Still Win Big, Adams admits that he failed at just about everything he's tried, including his corporate career, his inventions, his investments, and his two restaurants. But along the way, Adams discovered some truths you're unlikely to find anywhere else."--

Dilbert creator Scott Adams' funny memoir about his many failures and what they eventually taught him about success

Scott Adams has probably failed at more things than anyone you've ever met. So how did he go from hapless office worker and serial failure to the creator of Dilbert, one of the world's most famous comic strips, in just a few years?

No career guide can offer advice that works for everyone. Your best bet is to study the ways of others who made it big and try to glean some tricks that make sense for you. So here Scott Adams tells how he turned one failure after another - including a corporate career, inventions, investments, and two restaurants - into something successful. Along the way he discovered some unlikely truths. Goals are for losers; systems are for winners. Forget 'passion'; what you need is personal energy.

In this brilliant book, Adams shows us how to invite failure in, embrace it, then pick its pocket. While you laugh at his failures, you'll discover some helpful ideas for your own path to personal victory.

저자소개

스콧 애덤스(지은이)

1957년생. 지난 30여 년 동안 가장 유명하고 널리 읽힌 연재만화 중 하나인 <딜버트Dilbert>의 작가다. 평범한 회사원인 딜버트의 험난한 회사 생활을 시니컬한 유머를 녹여 풀어낸 이 작품은 전 세계 직장인들의 공감을 얻었고, 65개국 2,000여개 신문사에 실렸다. 그는 크로커 내셔널 뱅크와 퍼시픽 벨에서 16년 동안 기술직 근로자로 근무한 후, 1995년에 전업 만화가의 길로 들어섰다. 《딜버트 법칙Dilbert Principle》, 《더 시스템How to fail at almost everything and still win big》 등 다수의 베스트셀러를 썼다. 그는 세상 누구보다도 많은 실패를 경험한 사람이다. 목소리가 제대로 나오지 않아 3년 넘게 말을 제대로 못하기도 했고, 새끼손가락에 경련이 일어나기도 했다. 건강뿐만이 아니다. 회사에서 해고당하고, 수많은 발명과 서비스 사업에 실패했다. 좋은 기회를 놓치고, 투자금을 날렸으며, 레스토랑 두 군데의 문을 닫아야 했다. 그럼에도 불과 몇 년 만에 불운한 회사원에서 세계에서 가장 유명한 만화 중 하나를 탄생시켰다. 그는 독자들이 그의 실패를 비웃기를 바란다. 어느 분야든 간에 당신이 성공하기로 결정했다면 그 출발점이 되어주겠다고 말하면서. 현재 샌프란시스코 교외에 살고 있다.
