I'm just another wandering INTJ from Australia (Sydney) who found his way onto this site.

I don't have anything really profound or insightful to say like some of the other people who have posted and have actually rewritten this sentence about 5 times. (and I'm still not happy with it

must... fight... temptation... to... rewrite.... again!)

Errm, what to tell you all... I'm a guy, in my early 30's, I run my own (successful) business and have a background in software architecture/programming. I tend to find that I have a need to understand everything and much to my girlfriends horror I spend a lot of time thinking about how I could artificially create/predict almost everything I do/see/hear/think. Lets see, most people who know me think I'm insanely lucky and opportunities get thrown my way all the time - what people don't see is that I spend a lot of time meticulously nourishing "almost" opportunities so I can reap the rewards, choose not to presue it, or leverage it depending on my end goal. My girlfriend tells me I'm devious, calculating and manipulative but I tend to think I'm just misunderstood

Anyway, that's enough of an "introduction" I'm sure most (or one) of you stopped reading after the first sentence... and if not, then you're a stronger man/woman than I!

Cheers,
Lobotomy

Your story is awesome. I am in need of lessons from you on how to spot viable opportunities and how to get them to flourish. Welcome.

Luck is nothing more than preparation meeting opportunity.

Welcome.

Hi, buster.

We would like to investigate your fabled luck. To this end, we have fashioned what some might regard as the acid test:

*jump-suited assistants wheel in vat of steaming acid*

Here are your goggles...
