Quote of the Week: The amount of good luck coming your way depends on your willingness to act.

Ever notice how the people we call “lucky” always seem to be doing something?

They’re applying for jobs, trying new things, starting awkward conversations at get togethers, or signing up for classes they’re only kind of qualified for. Meanwhile, the rest of us are sitting on the couch wondering why luck hasn’t magically knocked on the door (preferably with snacks).

Here’s the secret: luck doesn’t usually come out of nowhere—it shows up when you do.

That scary email you almost didn’t send? That could lead to your next opportunity. The project you’ve been procrastinating on? Finishing it might open a door you didn’t even know existed. Sure, things don’t always work out immediately, but each action plants a seed. And the more seeds you plant, the more chances something awesome will grow.

So, if you’re waiting for a sign—this is it. Take the leap. Say yes (even if you’re nervous). Hit send. Show up.

Luck loves a good effort.
