Most people are afraid to admit the role of luck in their lives.It feels better to be "self-made" - the kind of person who boldly declares that if you drop them in the middle of New York, penniless and naked, they'll emerge a millionaire thirty days later.Nothing could be further from the truth.John Morgan is not afraid to acknowledge the tremendous role luck has played in his life. There's been plenty of good - like deciding to attend Mass on a whim and meeting the love of his life - and plenty of bad - like being raised by an alcoholic father who couldn't keep a job. But the bundle of good and bad luck we inherit doesn't mean we're helpless.This book will show you how to find luck, get return on luck, enhance luck, and turn bad luck into good luck.Unflinching, honest, and sometimes raw, Life is Luck looks at the remarkable life of the man who built the largest personal injury law firm in American history, along with an enterprise of attractions, hotels, apartment buildings, and shopping centers.LIFE. LUCK. LEGACY.I wrote this book to tell the truth about life and success. And the truth is, I can trace everything back to a paperboy in Lexington, Kentucky who borrowed money from his grandmother at eleven years old and had no idea that luck was already doing most of the heavy lifting. And today, looking back at the remarkable journey that paperboy would take, gratitude stands as the most important part of my life. I wrote this book for my wife, who is by far the luckiest break in my life, and my children and grandchildren. And I wrote it for anyone who has ever been dealt a bad hand and wondered why or caught a lucky break and didn't recognize it until it was in the rearview mirror. If this book does what I hope it does, it gives people an honest framework for accepting the role luck plays - finding the opportunity buried in the bad and being ready when the good eventually comes around. -John Morgan

A visionary leader in clean and renewable energy tells his incredible personal story and outlines a smart and sane way forward for meeting the world's growing energy needs.Michael Polsky is one of the most important figures in American clean energy--here, he tells the remarkable story of his rise from a penniless young Soviet émigré to leadership in this essential industry. Only a decade ago, many thought that demand for electricity in America might never rise again. Today, AI, cryptocurrency, and electrification are fueling the largest surge in electricity demand in fifty years. Polsky has spent the past four decades building power plants, but even he never expected to see this kind of surge in demand. Most of the companies driving it want electricity produced by clean, sustainable renewable sources, mainly wind and solar power. His journey in clean energy is America's journey too. Inexhaustible intertwines his personal story--an immigrant who arrived in America from the Soviet Union with $500 in his pocket and a few phrases of broken English who, twenty-five years later, founded a multibillion dollar independent energy company--with the story of America's energy evolution from coal and oil to wind and solar power.Polsky's career evolved from working on oil- and coal-powered plants, to generating power from nuclear and natural gas, to renewable energy. It was a natural progression that helped him form a distinct vision of the future, which guided him to what would be the next best way to develop projects and produce electricity. The United States is heading in the same direction, for a simple reason: not because we have all become environmental activists, but because renewable-energy technology just makes sense. It has the potential to create unlimited amounts of energy, and a low-cost, highly efficient, and reliable power system.Polsky's company, Invenergy, is now the biggest privately owned clean-energy business in the US. He was forward-thinking enough to have built a business with a focus on renewable energy. But the challenge Polsky sees for America is that we don't have enough installed renewable-power generation, hooked up to the grid and ready to supply. Because demand for electricity is so unprecedented, the source of the energy is becoming somewhat secondary to the need itself. We're burning more fossil fuels than ever before, reopening mothballed nuclear power stations, and betting on experimental technology.We are entering an era of an "all of the above" approach to generating electricity, driven by the surge in demand and the realization that neither fossil fuels nor renewables alone can meet all our needs. As Polsky sees it, the danger is that our immediate appetites could blind us to the consequences of using all forms of energy: making climate change worse, slowing the energy transition, and the potentially disastrous results of a nuclear accident.Polsky is far from a green warrior or an ecological activist. As a student in his native Kyiv, Ukraine, he was trained in the 1970s to design power plants that burned heavy oil or coal. When he emigrated to the United States in 1976, he worked on nuclear power plants, then on gas-powered plants, and then on power plants that burned coal, oil, and natural gas. The first company he started worked on coal- and natural-gas-fired power plants; his second company developed facilities that burned natural gas, tires, and wood.Today, Polsky and Invenergy are in the renewable-energy business because it is an unprecedented industrial and financial opportunity, offering the chance to create unlimited amounts of energy efficiently, reliably, and at a low cost. It is highly scalable. It is the future toward which technology is taking us. Our choice is not whether or not to switch to renewable energy, but if we will grasp this opportunity or have it forced upon us by crises. As Polsky sees it, there is a smart and forward-looking way to the future, and this book charts what the smart way looks like, and urges us to seize the opportunity it offers.

'An excellent look at what Palantir does, as well as a fascinating insight into the mind of its eccentric chief executive' TelegraphPalantir Technologies is the most interesting company in the world -&nbsp;and the most controversial.&nbsp;Palantir builds data integration software: its technology ingests vast quantities of information and quickly identifies patterns, trends and connections that might elude the human eye. Founded in 2003 to help the U.S. government in the war on terrorism - an early investor was the CIA - Palantir is now a $400 billion global colossus whose software is used by major intelligence services (including the Mossad), the U.S. military, the National Health Service in England, and corporate giants like Airbus and BP. From AI to counterterrorism to climate change to immigration to financial fraud to healthcare to the future of warfare, the company is at the nexus of the most critical issues of the twenty-first century.&nbsp;Its billionaire CEO, Alex Karp, is a distinctive figure on the global business scene. A biracial Jew who is also severely dyslexic, Karp has built Palantir into a tech giant despite having no background in either business or computer science. Instead, he's a trained philosopher who has become known for his strongly held views on a range of issues and for his willingness to grapple with the moral and ethical implications of Palantir's work. Those questions have taken on added urgency during the Trump era, which has also brought attention to the political activism of Karp's close friend and Palantir co-founder Peter Thiel.&nbsp;In The Philosopher in the Valley, journalist Michael Steinberger is the first to tell the story of Alex Karp and Palantir from the beginning. Steinberger offers new biographical details and a rich psychological portrait of the man leading one of the world's most secretive companies. Full of revelations, this is an urgent and insightful book about technological power, the surveillance state and the future we all face.

For&nbsp;today’s&nbsp;aspiring&nbsp;leaders,&nbsp;lessons&nbsp;in&nbsp;leadership&nbsp;from legendary Black CEOs Beginning in&nbsp;the late 1990s, a handful of&nbsp;executives&nbsp;rose to become&nbsp;some of the first Black&nbsp;CEOs&nbsp;ever to lead&nbsp;Fortune&nbsp;500&nbsp;powerhouses:&nbsp;Ken Chenault at American Express,&nbsp;Dick Parsons at Time Warner,&nbsp;John Thompson at Symantec,&nbsp;Ursula Burns at Xerox, and&nbsp;Frank Raines at Fannie Mae. In&nbsp;Trailblazers,&nbsp;organizational advisor and&nbsp;journalist&nbsp;Roger O. Crockett&nbsp;recounts the&nbsp;inspiring stories of these titans&nbsp;and&nbsp;relates&nbsp;their hard-won lessons&nbsp;for&nbsp;achieving&nbsp;greatness&nbsp;amid the stunning lack of racial equity that still plagues us today.&nbsp;These trailblazers&nbsp;share&nbsp;an&nbsp;extra&nbsp;dose of&nbsp;resolve and grit, the key to their&nbsp;success despite the&nbsp;difficulties they tackled as Black leaders—what Crockett calls the “alpha-plus” mentality.&nbsp;Trailblazers&nbsp;also&nbsp;homes in&nbsp;on a specific quality that each&nbsp;wielded&nbsp;on their path to the top—from a&nbsp;belief in the power of&nbsp;authentic identity, to&nbsp;a commitment to compromise or&nbsp;a performance mindset—and offers readers&nbsp;guidance&nbsp;on how to&nbsp;cultivate these qualities&nbsp;in&nbsp;themselves. The&nbsp;members of this group&nbsp;have enlightening perspectives on what it takes&nbsp;for&nbsp;not just&nbsp;Black leaders&nbsp;but any leaders&nbsp;to&nbsp;make it&nbsp;today. Their&nbsp;voices&nbsp;are needed now more than ever.
