Just as dangerous a notion as the other extreme: the notion «I’m small, the world is big.»
This setting is contained in many books on the psychology and philosophy of business, where one way or another is broadcast:
- There is no unconscious at all — these are fairy tales for idiots.
- You have to be big so that the small world lies at your feet.

- There is no fate — everything is 100% in your hands and it does not matter if they are pure or not.
- “Signs of the world” and other “purposes” were invented for losers.
