Luck has nothing to do with it. Hard work, experience, and an understanding of my place in the world has made the difference. I came from nothing, and when I die, I will leave the world with something.

You got the experience because the opportunity has been given to you. The rest might all be your hard work etc, but there is always some luck somewhere

Nothing has been given to me. I took it.

Yeah, we hunt that opportunity down and tackle it, hog-tie it, and drag it to our lair.

For that we have two sayings in Greece, i'll tell you the one. The translation is something like "do your part and Athena (the godess) will help". So yeah hunting opportunities is a must 👍

I think you are discounting how relentless we are.

Probably i discount much more, but yeah you are right again. Just trying to be humble 😃

Be humble by giving credit to the Lord, and acknowledging that He can take it all away again, not by denying how hard you worked.

Blaming chance gives rise to envy and class warfare.

I try to calculate everything. Hard work and chance alike. Envy is not my thing. Class war definitely is though. Fuck the corrupted oligarchs

I would like to hear that story if i may, if not too personal etc. May i?

I’m sorry the world isn’t big enough for me to tell my story, or anymore significant than anyone else’s. We all need to work and scrape to get what we want out of this life.

Allright. I wish you all the best then, even if you don't need wishes

We all could use wishes. Thank you. I too, wish you the best.

I don't know a single other woman who can do the work I do, and only a small handful of men. And I know thousands of people.

That is not luck. 🤷‍♀️

That is not only luck. That is most you doing things right. That's it
