All your life you have cherished the moments of success and rued missed opportunities. But the manner in which you react mentally to both situations will be drastically different. Before explaining myself I intend to make a dramatic declaration. A lot of people have made it through life riding their luck.
Let me explain before the knives come out. Key events in life determine the direction it is going to take. At such defining moments if destiny favours you, things appear sweet. Now the question you need to ponder on, is did you deserve the success because you are skillful or you just got plain lucky?
It is almost impossible to separate the contribution of skill and luck in your success. The key is to realize their existence and identify their role. In an ideal world success would come from 99% skill and 1% luck, but there is enough evidence to believe otherwise.
