What do people really mean when they wish you “good luck”?
Is there really any luck involved when you attend a business meeting or send a proposal for your services? I don’t know about you, but if I have to rely on luck I am doomed based on my success at the blackjack table, where luck is mostly the deciding factor…I like to think that I make my annual donation to Vegas every time I sit down at a table and watch my hard earned money disappear…in minutes!
I believe I am in control and can influence the outcome of most meetings and opportunities if I do my job, the operative words being “do my job”.
This week was a perfect example when the outcome of months of discussions turned fruitful. It wasn’t luck rather days and days chipping away and communicating something of value until an affirmative decision was made.
Persistence not luck!
