<description>Great comment Sara, I agree. I would venture to say that success is almost entirely based on preparing beforehand and putting yourself in situations where you can take advantage of luck/opportunity when it knocks. I use the word luck simply to convey how elusive those &amp;ldquo;knocks at the door&amp;rdquo; can be, and that there&amp;rsquo;s rarely ever a magical formula to create such opportunities.    Just a short while ago I was in Boston and had a great chat with &lt;a href=&quot;http:\/\/www.villageventures.com\/\?page_id=44&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Bo Peabody&lt;/a&gt; on the topic, he authored one my favorite books on the art of success: &lt;a href=&quot;http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Lucky-Smart-Secrets-Entrepreneurial-Life\/dp\/140006290X&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Lucky or Smart?&lt;/a&gt;, definitely worth the quick read! </description>
