A moving man always meets his luck
Transcript
I can guarantee you that this is gonna be one of the best videos you'll ever watch and it's about the idea that a moving man always meets his luck. There's a line that the ancient Romans took into better. Fortune favors the bold. Notice what it doesn't say. It doesn't say, fortune favors the patient, fortune favors the talented, fortune favors the deserving, fortune favors the one that's moving. Think about every bit of luck you've seen anyone you know no. The friend who met the right person at the right time at the party they weren't supposed to go to, the guy worse small project got recognized at tier perfect time by someone who could change their life. Even for me, the video I nearly didn't post that changed my life. None of it was magic. Every single one of these situations happened because someone was out there in motion. They weren't staying still, sitting on the couch, doing nothing. This is the opportunity that no one explains. Luck isn't a better. It's a collision. Opportunity is around everyone at all times. It just needs somewhere to no. A project it can see. A conversation it can enter. A person it can help. Stay still and you're simply not in the game. Nothing can reach someone who is nowhere. So get off your phone, get out of your room, and give yourself a chance. Because if you keep yourself in the confines of your room Monday night, Tuesday night, Friday night, whatever it is, luck is not gonna be able to find you. Go out, live your life, have fun. Fortune favors the bold, and the bold is the one who's moving.
