Create your own luck
Ask Cristiano Ronaldo and other competent strikers.
Maybe we all feel luck is when something happens by chance. But I feel we should re define it to “when opportunity(Chance) meets preparation”
We are so fond of insulting Ronaldo for scoring one touch goals(Tap in as we might call it). But seeing it in another way, this guy places him self in the right position, at the right time, with the right skill. Imagine if one of those is missing, we definitely won’t place him among the greats.
It’s very important as humans to get the right skill sets so when opportunity comes, we can grab them and call ourselves lucky.
Have good friends
Ask Messi and Suarez, Ronaldo and Marcelo
Remember when Suarez gave Messi a hattrick of assists in a single match just to help him win another golden boot?
Remember when Marcelo assisted Ronaldo to score a tap in just to have his hat trick against Bayern Munich?
Having good friends can be the difference between a miserable life and a happy one(I’m a living example). Good friends will go out of their way to make you happy and see you win.
It gives you reasons to live, love life, create memories…. The beauty of good friendship cannot be contained in this post.
Being a loner is not really fun. Find someone to share your life with. If you don’t have at least one good friend, I’m advising you to start searching. It is really nice to see our “I” turn into “we”.
Favorites don’t always end up winning
Ask Champions League
How many times in the champions league have we predicted the winners and ended up being wrong?
Big teams get thrown out by small ones, at times experiencing shocking defeats. Although this happens in various leagues too, but Champions League exits makes the headlines.
Relating this to real life, we can see that it isn’t all that stupid going against the greats. Have you come to take note of something, the greatest people in the world aren’t always the ones that inherit wealth from their parents, or the ones with the most certificates.
At times the odds are stacked against you. If you have a great idea, it’s always worth a try.
Money isn’t everything
Ask PSG and Manchester United
These two amongst other clubs have spent a lot of money to purchase the first players in the world, and still nothing to show for it.
Money is very important, and very much needed. But money won’t solve all your problems, and most importantly, money won’t make you happy unless you’re poor.
Imagine how much good a million will do for someone who doesn’t have anything to eat. Then imagine someone who has three square meals every day, clothes to wear, and a place to live. A million naira will only help you buy material things, and these things don’t give happiness.
Think about a phone, a shirt, or something else you bought a while ago. Does it still freak you out today like it did back then?
Regardless, don’t underestimate the power of financial independence. But always have it at the back of your mind that happiness isn’t in money, it comes from being satisfied with what we have and making the most of it.
