Article 5 Review


This article is achieving success, instead of pursuing economics. Scott Adams, who wrote Dilbert, wrote about how to achieve success by learning from your own mistakes. The difference between the advice Scott gives and the advice others give is to not be guided by your goals. His way of portraying people that are guided by the goals they set themselves, is in a way that shows they set themselves for failure. He talks about how a person is in that state of failure until they have achieved their goals. Of course, when those success is achieved, the satisfaction is immense.  Scott Adams argues that once a person achieves their goals in life, they either lose their motivation or create a new goal in order to enter the failing state before success is achieved again. Scott Adams has an interesting viewpoint against pursuing interests that one is interested or passionate about. The main idea in the article appears to be that once a persons business achieves success, then that person can become passionate about it. Otherwise, one doesn't need passion to start any business.
