I was just lucky…

Blessed.  Lucky.  Favored.  Fortune.  Timing.

We might call it something different but we all have good things happen that just can’t be connected directly to efforts we made.

In the book How the Mighty Fall by Jim Caldwell he talks about how failing to acknowledge the roll that luck has played in our previous successes can cause us to fall – to believe that we are better at making decisions than we really are.

When looking back at what has made you successful never fail to consider the luck factor, the almighty’s role, the good fortune and the role it played in your success.   You might not get so lucky next time so make sure you don’t get too big for your britches.
