“The meeting of preparation with opportunity generates the offspring we call luck”
— Tony Robbins
Simplified Meaning:
Being ready and finding the right chance to use what you're ready for creates what we often call luck. Imagine someone who wants to be a professional soccer player. They spend years practicing and improving their skills. One day, a scout visits a local game and notices this prepared player, offering them a chance to play for a big team. The player’s hard work (preparation) and the scout’s visit (opportunity) together create what looks like a lucky break. In real life, if you work hard and stay prepared, when the right moment comes along, you'll be able to take advantage of it, and people might say you were lucky. But really, your readiness and the chance meeting caused your good fortune.
