"Everything in life was perfect for me, except for the things I had planned," admits the author. But when we learn to look at reality in a different way, we see a new reality. Because, as the author says, the impossible is nothing other than the sequence of possible ones. This is the central message of the book, and the author demonstrates it with his own life, with stories of historical characters and with scientific studies. Halfway between autobiography and essay, the author invites us to take charge of our own life, reinterpreting it and giving it meaning.
