“The best men are not those who have waited for chances but who have taken them; besieged chance, conquered the chance, and made chance the servitor.”
E. H. Chapin
Things happen. Some we can control, most we can’t. The only thing we can do beyond any doubt is control how we react to whatever happens.
Real magic can only happen when you view all things through the lens of “for you.” Chance happens for you. The work you do today creates the opportunities that happen “for you” years or even decades from now.
If you want to make chance your “servitor”, you have to view the world through the lens of all things happening “for you” not “to you.” Otherwise, you will forever be a victim of fate…
