Luck Happens

The ancient Roman philosopher, 
Seneca the Younger,  
Is recorded to have said, 
“Luck is what happens when 
Preparation meets opportunity.”
So how does one prepare for opportunity?
In my experience this means to
Improve, simplify, and use best practice
While guided by the principles of 
Flexibility, balance, and patience.
Works for me. 
Feeling lucky?
