Hi Suomii,

I appreciate your perspective. Intention really does matter, and I’ve seen in my own life how much difference it makes when my heart and my work are pointed in the same direction. Things seem to move smoother and with more purpose.

For me, hard work and intention go together.
The intention gives the work meaning, and the work is what puts feet to the intention.

I think we all create our own kind of “luck” in different ways — through mindset, through effort, through faith, or sometimes all three working together.

Thanks for sharing your view. It's always good to see how different paths still aim toward the same hope.

Yeah Mike, I agree, everyone should discover his / her own path!

Anyway, there are some self-sabotages to our path that we are keeping putting in place as an never ending loop.

So it is important to be aware of the distinction between "working hard because I believe in my power" and "working hard because I am afraid of failing".

That's a huge difference!

Hi Suomii,

That’s a really good distinction — working from confidence versus working from fear can look the same on the outside, but feel very different on the inside.

And you’re right, being aware of our own patterns and motivations is an important part of the journey.

Thanks again for adding your insight to the conversation.
It’s interesting how each of us approaches growth from a different angle, but we’re all aiming toward the same thing — a better future.

You welcome dear Mike, we all are constantly evolving for our best! :)

Thank you so much Suomii for sharing your perspective — I really appreciate it. 😊

I actually don’t see hard work and intention as opposites. To me, they work best together. Intentions give us direction, clarity, and purpose… but the actions we take are what turn those intentions into something real.

My post wasn’t meant to promote a “sacrifice” or scarcity mindset. I completely agree that burning ourselves out or working from fear is not the path to meaningful success.

What I was trying to express is that opportunities tend to show up more often when we’re actively moving, learning, and growing not just waiting for luck to arrive on its own.

In my experience, intention sets the vibration… but consistent effort keeps us aligned with it. When we take steps toward what we want, even small ones, we naturally place ourselves in more situations where good things can happen. And from the outside, that can look like luck.

So I think we’re actually saying similar things, just from different angles:
Believe deeply in your direction, stay coherent with your intentions, and take inspired action to meet the opportunities that come.

Thanks again for your thoughtful comment. I love these kinds of discussions because they help all of us see things from new perspectives.

Yes, I agree!!! We are saying exactly the same thing! But I thought it was important to underline the difference between power and fear, mainly for those who approach this business out of despair, as a quick solution!

Let's say focused and awake! :)

Exactly

Thanks Nichola. Sometimes we don't realise how much we can change our future by our actions.

Keep pushing on and create your luck.

You are welcome Peter! Indeed, it is our actions that create changes! Thank you!

Nichola

Your welcome.
Have a great day

Thank you!

Nichola

It's why we should never eradicate our history. We have to learn from what was said and done so we can give ourselves a better future.

Well said!

Thanks Mel

You are most welcome Peter.
