Dear "Successful People,"

Dear "Successful People," I would wager that for all of your accomplishments, in addition to your smart decisions, high-quality products, excellent organization, consistency, discipline, and dedication, luck played a significant role. I want to emphasize that luck - plain LUCK - has likely been a crucial factor in your success.Luck is the factor that is often overlooked when we talk about success. We tend to give credit to people's intelligence, hard work, and determination. While these are all important factors, luck plays a significant role in determining the outcome of our efforts. Luck can work both ways - it can be good or bad, and it can change the course of our lives in an instant.
