Sure luck plays a role in success but I think mindset and tenacity play more of
a role.

I think that most people who make up their mind to earn a certain amount and are willing to do anything (reasonably) needed to get there will most likely get there.

I'm sure some would look at me and say I was lucky my business succeeded, but i think they would forget how unlucky I was when my first business failed.

I really appreciate what Jim Rohn says on the subject. Basically, "it's easy to get rich. Well if it's easy to get rich why aren't more people rich? Well, because it's even easier to stay poor". He says people who grind and grind it out, who pound the pavement, read all the books, and work UNTIL they have succeeded, will almost always get what they want.

I would never say I haven't been lucky, but I would also say luck or no luck, I wouldn't have stopped until i found/created something that worked.
