Step into the water if your ship doesn't come in, swim out to it!
Successful people seem to have a knack for making their own opportunities or getting closer to opportunities they've heard about. If we sit and wait for success to suddenly materialize, there is a chance it will spontaneously happen - but it's a slim chance, indeed!
When we have a 'dream', there is only one way to see it through; Set a course and then begin taking a few small steps into the water....DO NOT wait for hands out, work towards it....
And IF you were given a helping hand just be thankful for it and be grateful that you did get help...DO NOT turn around thinking that the person who have had helped you owe you something; they are just doing you a favour and NOTHING more.
The next time YOU hear yourself talking about 'luck' or 'chance', THINK of a way of how can you better the odds of achieving your goal, and then take a small step in the right direction.
