RE: Goals are Attained Not by Strength
Success, is realistic goals, hard work, more hard work, even more hard work, and some luck. Without the 'some luck' real success is very difficult to reach. However, the 'some luck' can for part be created; When one wants something so badly, and become so focussed on it, it'll be the topic of many conversations one have, the more people hear it, the higher the chance someone can help you, give you the 'some luck' that is required to get real success.
That is a great observation. "Success, is realistic goals, hard work, more hard work, even more hard work, and some luck." Sometimes luck can make a difference. But we make our own luck with hard work:)
Absolutely, some of the 'some luck' comes from the hard work, some of the 'some luck' comes from talking with many many people from friends to friends of friends, to whomever, and some of the 'some luck', is just that luck that comes by chance, pure luck. You know this hyped movement some years ago (10 or so) (well movement, was maybe not even a movement) called 'The Secret'? They stated: When you want something so badly, you will get it for sure; So if you want to get 1 M$ very badly you will get it! Although they took it to an extreme that is not reality, what they essentially (in between the lines) where saying is what I try to say. When you want something really badly, it is the topic of conversations you have with so many people. I experienced it in my own life, with stuff I wanted, eg setting up a business; I saw myself talking about my ideas at friends parties, also with strangers, talking with strangers while on vacation and all, and from here and there I got information from my conversation partners, like "I know someone who thinks the same", "I know someone who can help you", or "Cool, let me know where you get, I like to be involved", or whatever. Just the other day I was chatting to a Steemian on Steemit chat, and 15 minutes in the chat, I told this guy what I was thinking of to launch as a project and suddenly he offered me "Let me know when you want to go ahead with the project, I have a buddy who can help you out on what you are looking for". I had more of those conversations on Steemit already in the last half a year that I'm with the community. Conversation is of course not the only thing that drive the 'some luck' part, but it is a very important aspect of it.
