I'm just waiting on the right wave to ride. Hello from El Porto, California, and the Americana Coast Podcast. This is your daily pep talk. One phrase that I do not like very much is when people say, you are so lucky, or we are so lucky. Let me tell you something. Luck had nothing to do with it.

I firmly believe in the statement that we create our own luck. We take the risks. We put in the work. We put in the effort. We believe. We hope. We strive. We work our tails off to get something and achieve something. And yeah, it's wonderful, but we're not lucky. That's the payoff, and that's what you're working for. So this morning, know that all of your efforts are for a greater good and for an achievement down the road.

Don't let it frustrate you. It'll pay off. Keep going. Meanwhile, be good to each other, be kind to each other, love on each other. And we'll talk to you later.
