So I’m working through Felix Dennis’ How To Get Rich in my spare time. He’s got a great quote on wealth and luck that bears repeating here.
Chances come to everyone in life, in all shapes and sizes, often disguised, and more often radiating risk and potential humiliation. Those who are prepared to analyze the risk, to bear the humiliation and to act in deadly earnest — these are the “lucky” ones who will find themselves, when the music stops, holding a potful of money.
Essentially what Dennis is saying is that luck has very little to do with becoming wealthy and building wealth. Instead its more about hard work, being willing to take calculated risks and believing in yourself. This will help you become one of the “lucky” wealthy individuals.
Best,
James
