[quote=sdrealtor]Luck is defintely a HUGE part of it but saying all people are the same is a loser attitude and a cop out. All people are not the same. I know there are people smarter than me, better looking then me, more personable than me who are capable of things I am not. With that said, life is what you make out of it. You can’t hit that lucky home run if you never swing. Some people are content to be spectators and some are not. Some people swing and some people pretend they are playing the game but never take the bat off their shoulders. Some people are capable of hitting that home run when they swing and some people are only capable of generating a cool breeze when they swing. It still takes luck but luck only happens when preparation meets opportunity.[/quote]

I don’t disagree with any of this. I don’t think it contradicts anything I stated in my last post (if that’s what you were getting at, that is – this might have been a separate tangent.)
