Luck

What then is the role of lady luck or random chance in this wonderful world of success and happiness?

Does it have a role to play? Do you really have to be in the right spot at the right time to make things happen?

Could SUCCESS happen to just about anyone, anywhere, due to sheer luck of the draw?

At its very roots, this belief is based in pagan ritual and rite and goes back ages. Stars and cards may not dictate happiness and success (or not) for you! (alone)

We are not just random accidents, delivered and victim to our process, circumstances and surroundings. We have a purpose . It does not determine our future and destiny. You may have something to say or a role to play in that yet! You are not off the hook that easily – not by a long shot!

You are definitely NOT born either lucky or unlucky. That is an excuse and what a powerless position to enforce your life and potential from!

Luck, success and happiness is not a birth-right or due to a fluke or stroke of luck. You need and are intended to be somewhere, sometime, for some purpose. Luck is not a skill or a right that includes or excludes some/others.

Gambling is based on this concept and belief-system and very unfavorable as a life-guideline. It is a numbers game in the end and you can master, get better at it, honestly WIN great fortunes.

For real success in your life, family, relationships, work, future, you cannot realistically have this frame of mind and expect success and happiness in the process.

The onus rests on you to make a difference and tackle the chances and opportunities, even create some along the way that life brings across your path. You cannot just sit back and passively expect things to happen for the better.

Ambition can cloud your vision if you have too much of it. You need to be opportunistic and industrious as well in the process to get the most out of it.

LUCK will not get and guarantee you success and happiness in your life.

It can also be used as an excuse for in-action and/or failure. Not having access to the ;’fruits’ and promise of luck may be used as a verbalization and rationalization of why things are not going well, not successful or failing. It is a weak argument at best and will not hold water.

Chances will not just come your way – you need to make them, recognize them, active pursue or carve them open. Life will not necessarily come to you on a silver platter, announcing itself to you and the world. You need to make it happen. You have an active, deliberate role to play here.

An elevated sense of self might have you turning down opportunities simply because they are “below” you (or so you think or mislead yourself into believing).

Luck will not just give you the answers and deliver you from your evils, perils and trouble, YOU HAVE TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT! There are no chance-like, ready-made solutions, answers or position to get you out of it, by doing NOTHING!

You will loose out on opportunities, if you wait for luck and random chance to deliver success and happiness to you.

Being informed, involved, engaged by choice and NOT DETACTHING self from others, environment, happenings, tasks at hand etc. is the way and route to go. Avoid getting the reputation of “the genius of the untried.” (according to Lord Beaverbrook wisdom).

If you really do plan to succeed and put your mind to it, you just might and will! If you do not try, you will never know. Do not wait for random chance or luck to smile favorably on you – you might end up losing out altogether! Rather make things happen!

Luck means and will pocket you NEXT TO NOTHING!

If you do embrace every opportunity that does end up coming your way, you might just reach new heights and potential that you never thought possible. In so doing, you will be opening windows and doors of new and future opportunities that you did not think possible before.
Seize the day the saying goes! This rings true for real success and happiness. Be deliberate and action, results oriented, focusing in on the chances there and that you can create to be industrious and ambitions!

Even if the knowledge, expertise and judgment is not there, you might just learn something in the process and get better at what you are doing!

Your knowledge and prowess will improve, grow and expand and you will be better off for and with trying than not! In so doing, you will be successful, fulfilled and happy! LUCK will not even be a factor close in your mind or consideration.

It will be YOU, YOUR ACTIONS and pro-active involvement that will make the difference.

LUCK does not determine or guarantee success or happiness. Intuition, speculative guesses and instinct all figure into the gambling or luck-type perspectives on success and achievement.

Instinctively, with fore-sight and/or gut-feel just knowing something beyond a reasonable doubt is at times held up as a good reliable strategy for success and happiness.

There is nothing mystical or magical, mysterious about this. If you are in touch, thinking clearly, logically and work through things with your mind and heart, you will have feelings, biases and filters at work and present in your decision-making and other processing, how we make sense of, interact and deal with the world around us.

It is NOT MERE INSTINCT or INTUITION! WE are not dismissing their role, but taking it of its pedestal.

Your mind might not be able to make sense of HOW you know, just that you know, that you know! Everyone else will attribute it to luck or random chance, but you know better the truth, efforts, energy, time and what went into both process and outcome.

Superstition and real luck, does not last and cannot be sustained and is therefore not a viable course of action for most. It is unreliable for a personal strategy for success and happiness.

It is fleeting and futile a pursuit. If we are to succeed we are better off believing and pursuing ‘industry’ creative ideas, ambition, not just luck, random chance or fortune smiling upon us.

Reputation, achievement comes through hard work, not random chance or luck. Hard work and solid judgment, knowledge, skill, discipline and commitment is what will matter most, NOT LUCK!

Ambition and the pursuit of knowledge, life-long learning and on-going mastery, skill-refinement is what will be required to sustain momentum, change, growth, success and happiness! NOT LUCK!

Success

It is time to take a step back and ask how we actually get at SUCCESS?

What is the secret of happiness and success and how can we make it part of our life and future? That is the ultimate and optimal question, now is it not?

There are indeed a wide array and variety of ways, perspectives and angles to look at and answer this pressing question. For all of us individually it may be quite different and unique. Bias, experience will all color, cloud, filter and change it for us.

Even if we fail to prosper and succeed, we may still be happy – this need not be a paradox, it is LIFE! REALITY!

Success is not measured by material things or some of what has been mentioned or deemed in society as elements, tokens or proof of acceptance, achievement and success. To each of us SUCCESS means and can be something totally different. We are not motivated by the same things.

For many of us happiness and success mean different things. We interpret success very uniquely personally. It is our own custom idea of what it represents.

We oftentimes define who we are by what do. We desire and want certain things in and from life – to us, this is and will define SUCCESS (for us, for me). If we are too ambitious, too selfish, we might not taste happiness at all in our pursuit of success. Morals and conscience comes into play as well.

In order for us to understand, embrace and really bring to fruition in our lives, happiness AND success, we need THREE ingredients:

a) Fairness
b) Empathy
c) Humility

These are the ground-rules so to speak for attaining the optimal success, regardless of how you/others define it.

Honesty, candor, intent, purpose and practice (actually walking the talk for example) will go a long way in defining success for and in your life.

It is not observed by fear alone or to avoid retaliation, but stems from a deep and general sense of doing what is right and justified, fair and acceptable. This becomes a pattern and a conscious choice in your life that drives everything that you do, fitting with your own in-born desire for just and fair, equal treatment.

You can be honest, fair and successful. You do not have to cheat or be devious, deceptive, overly ambitious, using others, to get what you want, need and desire. Success does not say a lot about your character or does it now?

It might actually embody and manifest who you really are, believe in, your core values etc. Success is also not defined or shaped, brought into reality by the endorsement and recognition, reward of and by others. Reputation and no self-doubt has to be present for successful pursuits and lives.

Empathy and being non-judgmental, suspending judgment and having an open-mindedness about you can and will only serve your purposes well.

It is not representing weakness by any means, it just stands for what is the best road and route to take, the most humane, fair and considerate path.

We need to all learn to tap into this side of ourselves a little more. It is somewhat counterintuitive and is a learned skill to be mastered and refined in our lives and futures.

Empathy for the feelings and situations of others and do what it right, true to core values, consistently, with concern for others is what is at stake here. You endear yourself to others without even realizing it.

Just doing what is right, for the right reasons. Not tooting your own horn to much or just being in something for yourself and your selfish gain will be recognized right away.

It is undeniably present It is tender and comes from deep within you, leading to heart-felt actions – you will know it when you see it and just KNOW it is right!

The optimal and ultimate ‘test’ for success is humility. Success not for personal gain or for the sake of success and its rewards. There is a deeply, broader purpose and contribution at stake here.

It takes real struggle, courage, constant active pursuit and individual conquest, to make progress, remaining true to self and core-values, focusing on others and outcome more-so than on self and personal reward, recognition and stature.

It is quite the opposite of arrogant self-indulgence. Humble, modest and honest, not seeking own interests seem so counter-intuitive when mentioned in the same breath with or of success. It is not about your own ambitions so much or per se.

Not looking down or despising others is what is at stake. Leading by example and being a good role-model for and of humility is critical for this quality of success and measure of happiness.

Refuse credit for self, allowing others opportunity, self-less and unselfish in thought and action, with no room for jealousy and/or price, allowing others to succeed, grow and thrive. A passion for others and genuine authentic, heartfelt, honest motives.

Being humble does not mean you are without back-bone or courage self-confidence or ambition. It just means that others things matter MORE!

In the words of Lord Beaverbrook’s inspirational messages from the popular public press and sought-after articles: “practise courage without arrogance and walk humbly without fear.”

This will contribute to your own feelings of well-being and all-round achievement, personal satisfaction and reward.

You will be living and picking the fruits of your definition and satisfaction of SUCCESS and happiness. It will help you gain self-awareness, insights you never before dreamt even possible.

How Personal Development Affects an Entrepreneur's Business

An entrepreneur has two factors to face when running a business: Internal and external. The external factor involves the environment, the market, and other components outside the entrepreneur and the business.

The external factors are parts of a business that you have virtually no control over. These factors present the greatest risk to a business considering the fact that you cannot do anything but adapt to them.

External factors include both opportunities and threats. Opportunities are those external factors that can cause your company to prosper, provided you are able to respond to them correctly.

Threats are those which can cause your downfall if you do not learn how to adapt. Sometimes, entrepreneurs even experience opportunities turning into threats and vice versa. Of course, a situation either becomes an opportunity or threat based on his or her perception.

Now we come to the internal factor of business. The internal factors include the strengths and weaknesses of the entrepreneur and his or her venture. An entrepreneur's personal development affects business because of the plain and simple fact that it is a part of the internal factor.

An entrepreneur's personal development touches business more often than people may think. You see, although more and more people say that separating your personal life from business is very crucial, it is just too hard, if not impossible.

An entrepreneur's personal development affects business because this determines how well an entrepreneur can respond to the external factors. You see, personal development has a great impact on how you take the problems that face you in business.

Many people think that if you develop yourself professionally, then you can let go of your personal life when you are at work.

Unless you have multiple personality disorder, however, you cannot just forget about your personal life once you are handling your business. An entrepreneur's personal development affects business because the way an entrepreneur adapts to the external factors is determined by his or her personality.

You see, you may gain the know-how and the facts from school, but character development is only taught by life. So how do entrepreneurs gain personal development?

Well, to tell you the truth, most entrepreneurs get it from their childhood. You see, there's nothing like real life experiences to develop your character. When you have faced different problems and overcome the toughest challenges of life, business can actually be a breeze.

Some entrepreneurs develop their characters through years on the job. This is the reason why experienced entrepreneurs are more likely to succeed than new ones. You see, years on the business can help you cope with the different external factors that you face. Some entrepreneurs can even claim to have desensitized themselves to the different problems that one can face on a business.

However, it is said that the true character of a person is not measured by how long he resists falling, but by how often he keeps getting up. You see, the best kind of entrepreneurial character development for business is how to take your hit and not be defeated.

As an entrepreneur, you will be facing defeats in your life. Bruises will form over your business reputation. Competition will leave you wanting to quit. Despite all these, you need to stand up and be victorious.

Even through different trials, you must stand. Financially speaking, you need to lay it all on the line for your dream. Given time, you will realize that all the risks you took were worth the success. Hold on to your dream whenever anything threatens to break you apart. In times of trouble, let the development of your character show.

Juggling personal life and business can be hard for the entrepreneur. Balance is essential to every entrepreneur. Despite the fact that new business ventures need a constant eye, you must learn how to take care of your personal life as well.

Learn how to prioritize important things. Here is a lesson: handling life and work is like juggling glass balls. You are afraid to drop one, but trying to keep them all in the air can wear you out.

However, you have to realize that some of those balls are actually made of rubber and will bounce back even if you drop them.
