I don't understand why people down-vote my comments whenever I emphasise the importance of luck in everything. I worked bastard hard for almost 10 years with no social life and was making $0. I'd love to be able to say that it was all hard work and will power that eventually got me though but it just feels like a lie. If I am to really succeed, I'll do it whilst being honest with myself.
