If you feel unlucky, do this 🍀


G'day G'day friends,

You’re not lucky because you’re not prepared enough.

You need to build the capacity to be great before actually being great.

This isn’t about mental masturbation.

Or endless reading or content consumption.

Building capacity still requires taking action.

But capacity broadens the scope of opportunity, not reduces it.

Invest time to build capacity BEFORE opportunities come to you:

  • Build an audience before building a product.
  • Start the business before you quit your 9-5 job.
  • Start saving money before you decide to start investing money.

Opportunities are everywhere.

But opportunities can only be exploited when you have the capacity to do so.

The formula for luck:

Luck = opportunity + preparation.

If you aren't prepared, no amount of opportunity will ever find you.

And even if does, you won't be able to exploit it.

In my upcoming book, I talk about how Tom Noske:

  • Self-taught himself digital art and photography.
  • Built an 80,000-follower Instagram page.
  • Invested in coaching and community.

He made himself ready.

When the NFT boom hit in 2022, guess who was best placed to exploit that opportunity?

That’s right. Tom.

He made a bucketload of money during this trend.

If you can build capacity, you’ll be positioned to take advantage of opportunities.

You don’t need to be great to start building capacity.

But you need to start building capacity in order to be great.

Don’t get caught short when Lady Luck starts calling your name.

Michael “build capacity” Lim.
