Hello,
I was the past two days at a workshop in some town near Frankfurt am main.
One thing that I take with me is that success is not luck.
The irony is that outside of the venue the sidewalk was full of play cards.
I fully agree that the most successful people have made their own luck and did not wait for luck to happen.
Even if some might get lucky, it does not last if they don't anything with it and just wait.
Most of the times in my life if I would not act, my luck would not happen. So I have to remind myself to keep on going.
Don't get me wrong, don't overpay for self motivation events where people gather in masses and don't lear anything. There are mostly platitudes presented which can't be applied in real life. If you choose a workshop, go to a one where cases are studied and if it is possible your special case. With this you get the most out of it.
Remember only this, ot is better do mistakes than not do anything.
