I like the idea of luck is faith.

And I like the idea of luck and faith and patience being intertwined.

Like when you give yourself patience, that is saying I have faith in myself, right?

When you're saying, I don't need to rush to do this.

I don't need to conform to someone else's timeline.

I just need to keep doing what I'm doing.

That is faith in yourself.

And that is what creates luck.

There's a book that I referenced quite a bit that has been passed around a little bit that talks about luck.

I'm blanking on the author of it, but it's called Chase Chance and Creativity, the Lucky Art of Novelty.

And it's basically written by this scientist professor who was talking about the role that luck has played in some great scientific breakthroughs, right?

specifically luck in the lab, like the invention of pasteurization and Louis Pasteur and the invention of penicillin.

Like these were like technically like mistakes that were made in the lab when they just like randomly did things.

Not a scientist, don't know the exacts, but like they randomly mixed things together and something great happened, right?

It was luck.

It wasn't part of the plan.

It was luck.

And basically the scientist looked over the years, over the many decades and centuries of luck in the lab.

And he said, luck is actually categorizable.

It's something we could break down and it's something we can't control.
