Prologue. In times of economic transition, changes always occur in three areas. First, there is a lack of entrepreneurship. The entrepreneurial spirit, which is crucial to navigate through complex and chaotic times, is in absolute short supply. Second, the dominant institution shifts from corporations to individuals. What once could only be done by large companies can now be accomplished by individuals. Third, the dominant actor shifts from the CEO to the individual entrepreneur. Entrepreneurs create their own systems and work according to the systems they have built. If one overcomes the intense challenges of the night with entrepreneurship, one can grasp an unprecedented level of wealth and freedom, as well as the meaning of work and life in human history. What is dangerous is actually safer. The eminent Islamic historian Ibn Khaldun (1332-1406) mentioned the concept of \'desert people\' in his \'Muqaddimah\'. Desert people live apart from the community, dwelling alone. Without city walls, they are always cautiously vigilant in all directions. They protect themselves with only bold courage. City dwellers, accustomed to success and luxury, indulge in worldly desires. They lack courage due to laziness and complacency. They have an unshakeable belief in the security of the walls surrounding them. People who allow someone else to design their lives enjoy only minimal freedom. They are assigned clearly defined tasks and roles at work. On the other hand, those who define and design their own lives tackle complex problems. They demonstrate a high level of competence in the quality of life, freedom, and wealth. Based on a philosophical understanding of wealth, they amplify the bidirectional feedback mechanism of error and recursion through a roadmap of wealth.
