well said.

only when the tide turns, you get to see who was swimming naked.

luck plays an important part, but not everyone realizes it or admits it.

And yet... those who stay in the game and who try new things regularly get “lucky” while those who quit, don’t develop and learn from a process, and who try the same methods over and over don’t get lucky.

It is far too simple to say that it is only luck. Persistence and good processes often lead to “luck”.

We have a saying in one of the Bulgarian towns:

"Luck doesn't come to you, you go to it".

Which is to say you are right: if you keep showing up at stuff you will eventually get lucky. Luck can only happen to those who try and get lucky. Our real world resembles an MMORPG game -- you need a team for 98% of everything -- then I'd say both you and your parent poster are correct.

Hence why I said fortune favors the prepared. If you’re not ready for the opportunity you’re going to miss it when it hits.

he is not the best. i am very impressed by how little his thinking and writing have improved over the years.

there is always a flavor of lecturing in his words. sometimes, it makes me wonder if i am just too stupid to understand his answers to all matters.

these days i could not finish reading his writings. his twitter feels like a talkative kid who hasn't learned self control. i have unfollowed him long ago.

he may want to be different. but how is he different? really.

do they avoid death?

this smells like bullshit

it is annoying. as a reader, who cares about the last time someone else commented.

whatever, i found reddit better.

unhealthy diet, drug addiction, wealth disparity.

this shitty move would be neutralized if you own Google stock.

can you add emergency use to the title!
