Still Hinging On LUCK?
Interesting topic once we talk about LUCK. WHO does NOT want to be LUCKY anyway? BUT are you Still Hinging On LUCK? Please DON'T get me wrong. NOTHING wrong to still hinge on LUCK as long as you DON'T breach that thin line between what is normal and WHAT seems not within the acceptable norms and practices in life. If we seem to picture ourselves like this man swaying lazily along the beach, then and if you're hoping and hoping for LUCK to fall on your lap, then you could have potential issues aheadπππ
How often do we hear someone blurt out like, "YOU're SO LUCKY"? BUT hey, each of us, wherever we stand in life now, LUCK isn't WHAT got us WHERE we are today. Whether you stand prominently OR abysmally, there could be more legitimate reasons WHY you're either hugging the cellar OR near/atop the totem pole and very certainly, LUCK has got NOTHING to do with it at allπ§π§π§
Whether it's in our personal life OR even in our business OR work life, the eventual end result is and will NOT be your burden to bear BUT what matters is the PREPARATION piece. Perfection in the moments leading up to WHATEVER decision you're making is your burden to bear. While the outcome may NOT be in your control, the actions you take leading up to that point are absolutely up to one's sole discretion. So, WHEN you take the time and energy to PREPARE, you become ready for the unexpected. You become hyperfocused and are able to respond in a heightened state of functioning. Thing is, PREPARATION is a way of life, a lifestyle skill set to buildπ¦π¦π¦
So, how can get over that LUCK dependency?
CULTIVATE ETHIC TO TO LEARN - Preparation is nearly synonymous with learning. So, if you have a difficult OR high stakes scenario approaching, consider to invest time up front to learn as much as possible about the options, people and even the possible outcomes involved
ASK FOR HELP - Connections are built through authentic conversations and most conversations are sparked with a question OR list of questions
Our takeaway: Nothing should stop us from figuring out our own forecast and anticipate the probable results. Thing is, we got to stop relying on talent and start leveraging from within. No matter HOW talented you may think you are, the reality is that the talent is the very force witnessed in the moment while PREPARATION is everything leading up to to the SUCCESS. Let's set aside LUCKπ₯π₯π₯
