The Last paragraph：

    Survivorship bias means this：people systematically overestimate their chances of success. Guard against it by frequently visiting the graves of once-promising projects,investments and careers. It is a sad walk, but one that shold clear your mind.

读所感：

    无论我们打算要做什么事情，失败或者成功都是不可避免的，而且通常与我们想象的结果会有很大的偏差。

因此，考虑到这一点，失败的时候我们不会过于失落，成功的时候也不会盲目的高估自己。
