"You Were Just Lucky" - A Message to Everyone Who Said That About My Successes

"You were just lucky."

I've heard this my entire career.
Every milestone.
Every breakthrough.
Every achievement that required years of work invisible to everyone.

But still.. Lucky here.. Lucky there..
And.. 

what a coincidence.. 

Lucky Again! 

Those are the naysayers who can only gossip behind your backs but not even achieve 10% of my “lucky results” because they are always afraid of taking the responsibility for tackling tasks which are declared “impossible” or too lazy to step out of their comfort zone.

But for me “impossible” is not an absolute state but just a temporary limitation.
It often implies that related knowledge, determination and technology is missing.
So for those with sufficient knowledge, confidence, and technological understanding, obstacles can be overcome, re-framing the “impossible situation” as merely a “challenge awaiting a solution”.

For this a completely different mindset is needed and the will to embrace challenges.

To The Ignorant Who Don't Realize It

You hide behind your titles because you have nothing else. Your position gives you authority you never really earned. Your language is designed to confuse by permanently using buzzwords and talking in circles, not clarity.. because clarity would reveal how little you actually know.

You've mastered the appearance of competence while avoiding the substance of it.

A title is not a skill.
A position is not a result.

To The Jealous Who Can Only Talk & Steal

You watch others succeed and your first instinct isn't admiration - it's envy. You can't create, so you have to copy. You can't lead, so you have to criticize. You can't build, so you tear down. Your main psychological strategy is “Fake it till you make it.”

You just repeat other people's stories as if they were your own because you have no stories of your own worth telling.

To The Afraid Who Never Try

You'll never step outside your comfort zone because you're terrified of what others might think. You'll never try something new because failure might expose you. You'll never take a risk because safety feels better than growth.

And so you'll stay exactly where you are. Forever. Watching others pass you by and calling them "lucky."

Because “Failure” is the mother of all “Successes” but you never understood that.

What "Luck" Actually Looks Like

Here's my "luck":

• Years of executing when no one was watching
• Failures that taught lessons no success ever could
• Stepping out of comfort zones so often that discomfort became normal
• Thinking "out of the box" when everyone else demanded to stay inside it
• Never giving up when every rational being wanted to quit
• Fighting & Learning. Every single day. Becoming 1% better each day. For years!

To me “Luck” is the simple expression of constant action-taking.. because when Preparation meets Opportunity thats when “Luck” strikes.

That's how winning is done!

Real Value Requires Real (Calculated) Risk

The people who create real value are the ones willing to:

• Look foolish in pursuit of something great
• Fail publicly and get back up publicly
• Execute consistently when motivation disappears
• Think differently when conformity is easier
• Keep fighting when everyone expects them to quit

You don't get lucky. You get relentless.

So Yes, Call Me Lucky

Call me lucky again - please! I'll take it as a compliment. Because it means you can't explain my results in any other way.

And while you're calculating how "lucky" I am, I'll be out there. Executing. Building. Creating the next thing you will call “LUCK” then.
