RE: Have you ever had to Start Over?
Oh I did have to start anew, but from a point of complete failure rather than a successful new venture. Twice. ugh
Luck can be as big of an element in success as competence, and using your luck is about grabbing an opportunity wherever one turns up.
So good luck and keep it together!
Hey @eccles . I love the comment about luck, I think that's so true. I like what les brown says about luck. I'm probably going to butcher this quote or story but it was something to the effect of if god or the universe or whatever were sitting around watching you down below fail and fail and fail and fail and refuse to give up, after laughing at you for a while they'd say lets just let him have it, he's not gonna give up.
I hate when people say so and so got lucky and that's why they found success, but ultimately it is true in a different way. Most people have had way more failures than successes but if you show up everyday and keep trying and keep trying your going to improve and/or eventually one of your ideas will come to fruition in the right place at the right time and you will have some success. In that sense we make our own luck
