Making Your Own Good Fortune

Making Your Own Good Fortune

“You say, good fortune used to meet you at every corner. But the fortunate person is the one who gives themselves a good fortune. And good fortunes are a well-tuned soul, good impulses and good actions.”

- Marcus Aurelius, Meditations, 5.36

Can you make your good fortune? Yes, you can!

Many will say if you "work hard, and you can have the American Dream". I say poppycock.

Good fortune requires hard work, preparation, and opportunity. Opportunities can present themselves, but if we are not prepared, we fail to secure good fortune.

Conclusion

Arrange for something better. Prepare by doing the right thing at the right time. Make your good fortune.
