Absolutely - you receive very little through luck!

I agree Morne. On a side note, I have given a lot of workshops in Joburg. I have a few relatives there as well. Seeing some wildlife in their natural environment has been simply amazing. I hope to come back in the future and maybe get a chance to visit Kruger National Park.
Have you ever done any acting?
Thanks again for your comment.
Another great video, Aaron Marcus! I don't believe in luck either.

Thanks for your kind words, Maurice. I think some people like to credit luck which takes away from the hard work done by others. Hope you are doing and feeling well.
Have you ever done something that others might view as just luck?
I sold four short scripts to a producer on Stage 32 back in 2020, Aaron Marcus. At the same time. It wasn't luck. It was building a relationship/networking and having scripts ready.

Maurice, that is such a wonderful story. Thank you for sharing. Some people might say, you were lucky because there were people on STAGE32 who were in a position to purchase your scripts. But, you joined, made the connections, gave the pitches and had strong scripts that people wanted to purchase. What a great story. Thanks for sharing.
You're welcome, Aaron Marcus. And you're right. It's about "doing." Not luck.
