Do you know some people who just have all the luck? They seem to get all the and you ask yourself: “Why don’t I get ? Why don’t I get a great education?” But the real reason why most people are successful or lucky is that they’ve learned how to themselves in a place so they can be lucky. They’ve learned how to, in a way, their own luck!
I’m not about dishonest or illegal ways. I’m talking about hard, work. But successful people work smart. They keep improving and making the most of their abilities. Yet they also learn to for help in things they themselves are not that good doing. So we not only must make the most of our own special strengths, we must also learn our and weaknesses.
A man recently got his lucky big break. Everyone said, “That guy’s so lucky!” But that man created his own luck by arriving at the office early. He apologized and when he was wrong. He even shared the credit and reward with others he had done much of the work. He was never satisfied just to get and do average work. He always the extra effort to do his very best.
We have to work hard and do what it to be on the way to luck and success when it comes. , weMI miss it because we aren’t ready. You never know when the right opportunity will come your way, and when the right, important person is watching your excellent and work. That’s when you’ll get your lucky break! But when you put your life in Jesus Christ’s , the right important person is always you and all that you do. Then he will and bless vour life in manv wavs as vou do vour very best to please him in every thina every dav.
