It has some interesting ideas and strategies to consider. I'm not sure that this is what you are looking for. However, there is one point in the article that caught my attention.
"Only you can decide what will be the best solution."
I would be interested in hearing your thoughts, and from others on the webinar. Feel free to jump in with your ideas. Thanks for the question. There is no easy answer. -- Connie Saving Changes...
Hamid Mukadam: Question--i think its not luck, its reaching and doing thing at right time
Hi and thanks for your note. I agree. It's not luck. Let's say that I am a photographer and I capture an "amazing shot" on camera. A lucky shot, people might say. It's not because I was lucky. It was because I prepared, positioned myself, went out early to the right spot, with the right sunlight, the right time of day -- and seized the opportunity. As you say, reaching and doing things at the right time.
We create our own luck. It takes hard work -- passion, persistence, and patience. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. -- Connie Saving Changes...
Superb and spot on presentation. I hope when I become an old man to have somewhat mastered all 50. Would love to pass that to my 3 sons. Saving Changes...
