Outliers: The Story of Success, by Malcolm Gladwell, and the essay Self-Reliance, by Ralph Waldo Emerson, interact with each other quite well with many similarities and differences. In Gladwell’s book, he shares many stories of how people become successful, explaining that success is not achieved based on the character traits and work habits of an individual.

Blake Standring – Outliers Analysis Through a series of different tests, Gladwell concludes that we have all too easily bought into the myth that successful people are self-made. He says people “are invariably the beneficiaries of hidden advantages and extraordinary opportunities and cultural legacies that allow them to learn and work hard and make sense of the world in ways others cannot.” Gladwell explains an outlier as a person “who doesn 't fit into our normal understanding of achievement.”
