This short YouTube excerpt (by James Laughlin) argues that daily habits—small, repeated actions—shape a person’s life and opportunities. Laughlin rejects the notion of mere luck, claiming that working harder produces more "luck," based on his personal experience.
Your daily habits represent your life in miniature. That's right, your little daily moments, these habits, they are reflective of your life in miniature. So when you look at your entire life, 80, 90, 100 years, and you get a magnifying glass, you'll see what you did every day dictated how your life turned out, the opportunities that were given to you. I once heard of a multiple time world champion be told that they were lucky. You were just lucky. I disagree. You create your own luck. And you know what? My experience is this, the harder I've worked, the luckier I have got.
