Another book selling the illusion of control. And this idea of "becoming abnormal" borders on creepy and cultish.
Successful people have the right combination of personal traits for the circumstances they find themselves in. In other words, they got lucky, and that luck will NOT translate to anyone else. And that's really about all you can say about it. Sure, learn some time management and people skills, but the rest is beyond your control, so stop worrying about it and be comfortable in your own skin. You're not going to be wildly successful, but you'll have a far better time being happy. And time is the only thing given in about equal measure.

Personality traits aren't set in stone: people can and do change their personalities. Just not when they believe such things can't be changed, because somebody who believes something cannot be changed is not going to find a way to change it.
