CEOs are nuts. Steve Jobs was a nut. Elon Musk is a nut. One guy I used to work for was a nut. The guy I work for now is a nut. He genuinely believes in astrology.
These people virtually believe that they are guided and protected by higher powers. I'm starting to understand why chieftains and kings loved druids, shamans and priests so much, and why executives and politicians so often express an interest in the occult.
It's the nature of natural leaders to be prone to magical thinking.
