Don't wait for opportunities in life. They'll never come.
Opportunities are life seldom come and fall into our laps. They only come when we ask for them, when we actively seek for them. Your 'lucky break' is never going to come if you wish for it, want it, wait for it and whine about it. Just hoping for miracles is not and never enough. One must be actively pursuing things in life only then can one expect to get lucky. Only the doers get lucky, the waiters and the whiners don't.
