Every minute of life is like a slowly changing, large combination lock. Timing is everything. You need to get the right numbers, in the correct sequence, at the right time.
In life’s combination lock, the correct code keeps changing, similar to the Enigma machine. Even if you get the correct numbers and right sequence, if the timing is off, you don’t get to unlock the rewards.
Although, if you start paying attention to the people that have deciphered the code, and you follow it, your likelihood of success will be greatly magnified.
Timing is everything. I am sure you can relate. Maybe you have arrived at a shop as they were locking the doors, or snuck into your classroom just before the teacher turned to face the class.
There seems to be good and bad timing, but it is simply timing, nonetheless. The universe is indiscriminate.
Do your best to be your best as often as you can. Life can be a real numbers game. You never know when all the stars will be aligned and you will hit the jackpot.
Just make sure you are in the game, doing your best and learning to do better. The more you practice the more fortunate you will become.
