Whe it comes to matters of belief, we all wrestle
with the same questions: Where did we come
from? Why are we here? What are we supposed to do?
These are complex issues, yet one thing is clear—no matter
how complicated our views may be, they can divide
us into two simple groups. The first group consists of
people who believe that everything happens by random
chance. The second is those who believe we are all part
of a predetermined plan. You may have randomly picked
up this book with the goal of increasing your chances of
survival and your success during the unpredictable risks
of the future. It’s your lucky day. And if you believe the
universe is governed by something larger than us, then
maybe you were meant to learn the skills in this book.
So, did you pick up this book by sheer chance? Or was
this all part of your fate? There are questions here that
we can’t answer today, but there’s one thing that’s clear
and I think we can all agree upon it.
