We all know that most new ventures fail, and innovators and entrepreneurs need all the luck they can get. So what is luck? Luck is defined as success or failure apparently caused by chance. Apparently.
That’s the operative word. It looks like it’s chance because we rarely see all the levers that come into play to make people lucky. But I’ve realized, by watching so long, that luck is rarely a lightning strike, isolated and dramatic. It’s much more like the wind, blowing constantly. Sometimes it’s calm, and sometimes it blows in gusts, and sometimes it comes from directions that you didn’t even imagine.
So how do you catch the winds of luck? It’s easy, but it’s not obvious. So I’m going to share three things with you that you can do to build a sail to capture the winds of luck.The first thing you want to do is to change your relationship with yourself. Be willing to take small risks that get you out of your comfort zone.
Now, when we’re children, we do this all the time. We have to do this if we’re going to learn how to walk or talk or ride a bike or even quantum mechanics. Right? We need to go from someone one week who doesn’t ride a bike to, next week, someone who does. And this requires us to get out of our comfort zone and take some risks. The problem is, as we get older, we rarely do this. We sort of lock down the sense of who we are and don’t stretch anymore.
The second thing you want to do is to change your relationship with other people. You need to understand that everyone who helps you on your journey is playing a huge role in getting you to your goals.
And if you don’t show appreciation, not only are you not closing the loop, but you’re missing an opportunity.
When someone does something for you, they’re taking that time that they could be spending on themselves or someone else, and you need to acknowledge what they’re doing.
And third, you want to change your relationship with ideas. Most people look at new ideas that come their way and they judge them. “That’s a great idea” or “That’s a terrible idea.” But it’s actually much more subtle. Ideas are neither good or bad. And in fact, the seeds of terrible ideas are often something truly remarkable.
Question 16. Which word is the operative one in the definition of luck, according to the speaker?
Question 17. What is the first thing the speaker advises us to do to get good luck?
Question 18. What do we need to do to change our relationship with other people?
选项

B、We need to understand what other people are doing.
C、We need to judge the new ideas presented by most people.
D、We need to be aware of the results caused by terrible ideas.
