📚 3 Good Articles for You
Lucky vs. Repeatable
by Morgan Housel (3 mins)
Luck vs. Skill: The blog differentiates between luck and skill, using Jeff Bezos and Amazon as examples, emphasizing that while Bezos's skills contributed to his success, many factors like market conditions that helped Amazon are non-repeatable.
Importance of Replicability: It stresses understanding which aspects of success are repeatable, advising to emulate replicable skills and strategies while avoiding attempts to copy specific, unique circumstances.
Learning Broad Lessons: The post warns against drawing narrow conclusions from history, such as learning specific lessons from the dot-com crash, and encourages focusing on broader, more applicable lessons that can be replicated by individuals.

Crossing the Chasm by Geoffrey Moore
by Santeri Liukkonen (58 mins)
"Crossing the Chasm" by Geoffrey Moore is essential reading for those in technology and sales, offering deep insights into high-tech marketing and the importance of precise customer segmentation.
The book emphasizes the significant gap, termed the "chasm," between early adopters (visionaries) and the larger mainstream market (pragmatists), advocating for targeted strategies to bridge this gap for successful product adoption.
Although some readers find the content somewhat dated, the book is valued for its frameworks that organize scattered observations into coherent strategies for decision-making and marketing execution.
