I’ve always had a bit of a love/hate relationship with the saying, “Sometimes it’s better to be lucky than good.”  However, this is often true.  The tricky thing about good fortune is that we can’t control it.  At the same time, very few individuals, teams, or organizations are able to truly be successful without some serendipity playing a role.  On this episode I talk about some of what makes good luck challenging and elusive, as well as hard for us to acknowledge and attract.  I then share some specific things we can do to enhance our ability to both prepare/work hard, and at the same time trust that serendipity can and will show up in the process.
