Their decisions make a difference; they are the inventors, the entrepreneurs, the political and military leaders \u2013 not average people. They got to where they are by seeking challenges and taking risks. They are talented and they have been lucky, almost certainly luckier than they acknowledge&#8230; the people who have the greatest influence on the lives of others are likely to be optimistic and overconfident, and to take more risks than they realize.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><em>Source: <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/click.convertkit-mail4.com\/k0uwedoepms6hdo2497hqho7ed277f8\/m2h7h5h8pwvrkgum\/aHR0cHM6Ly9hbXpuLnRvLzNUcGM5UXM=\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Thinking, Fast and Slow<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"\">I think its fair to say that whilst genetics can undoubtedly influence our innate level of optimism, it shouldn\u2019t end there.
