Listen Later

Every wondered why some people seem to be make success look easy and you struggle? There's a reason why, and when you realise what it is, it will blow your mind!


In this episode I discuss the role of luck in business and how it relates to success. I emphasise that success is not solely defined by material possessions and status, but rather by achieving one's own version of success. I explore the concept of luck and opportunity, highlighting the importance of taking action and creating opportunities for luck to occur. I share a personal example of luck in my own business and encourage listeners not to compare themselves to others.

 

Takeaways

  • Luck and opportunity play a significant role in the chances of success.
  • Comparing oneself to others can lead to feelings of inadequacy and self-doubt.
  • Taking action, creating opportunities, and persisting are key to increasing the chances of success.
