Guest guest Posted April 19, 2011 Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 I'm a great believer in luck, and I find the harder I work, the more I have of it. - Jefferson, President and philosopher Where Luck Comes From It's interesting. Successful people generally believe they made their own breaks. Meanwhile, the unsuccessful types tend to think that success is more found than earned--that fortune smiles on some and sneers at others. The truth is somewhere in between. With hard work, more doors open, more opportunities come by. Which opportunities show up can be a matter of chance. If your mom's not Naomi Judd, you may never get the chance to sing in Nashville. But whatever " happens by, " you still have to be ready and willing to take advantage of it. It's really a matter of confidence and preparation. Belief in yourself will help you rely less on luck and more in your abilities. And a strong foundation will give you the power to bust that door down when opportunity comes knocking. You, too, can be lucky. You just have to work at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
