The Ego Shield
Success has many fathers; failure is an orphan. When stock prices go up, traders say “I am a genius.” When they go down, they say “The market is irrational.”
Taking Responsibility
To grow, you must overcome this bias. You must accept that your failures are your fault. Only then can you fix them.
