Following the THPL journey provides a pathway with a lot of structural integrity. We dream, plan, practice and do – we emulate great people – we take on new challenges and find a path forward. So many interesting options for how we move along our journey. And when things go well, it would not be surprising to us. There could be, though, a random occurrence when we hear someone say, “boy were you lucky”. The statement in its literal meaning translating to “chance” not “one’s actions” that led to our success. This seems to be in conflict with the THPL way – one where we make our lives, we craft them as we see fit, and we create the outcomes as we would like them to be. The “random” occurrence that luck implies is incongruent, with THPL. Rather it is good fortune that we find, not luck, as it is a result of our efforts, each and every time. So, when we hear that we are lucky, we can just remind ourselves that if we must use the work luck we can go with the famous – “luck is where opportunity meets preparation”. Indeed, it is!

Loving life when I am full of good fortune…..
