    C) Being overconfident

    Explanation:

    Anastasia is overconfident because she is erronously thinking that past success implies success in the present, not taking into the account that every moment in life, and each one of the projects, is different.

    She took too many risks because in the past those risks had payed off, but she did not make a clear cost-benefit analysis of those risks, otherwise, the decisions would not have failed.
