Master Your Circumstances

“So much of life isn’t about intelligence or luck but putting yourself in a position for success.

The cash-rich investor thrives in crashes. The well-rested athlete outperforms the exhausted star. The student who studies daily aces the pop quiz. The employee who leaves early gets to the meeting with the CEO on time while the other person sits in the unanticipated traffic. All seem lucky, but they’ve positioned themselves to succeed.

Master your circumstances before they master you.”
