"In my life everything turned out perfect, except the things that I had planned", admits the author. But when we learn to see reality in another way, we see a new reality. Because, as the author says, what is impossible is nothing more than a sequence of things that are possible. This is the central message of the book, and the author proves it with his own life, with stories of historic characters and with scientific studies. Half way between an autobiography and an essay, the author invites us to take charge of our own lives, to reinterpret them and give them meaning.
