and I can tell you a dozen or more times where we were lucky to be in the right place and the right time. The idea that arrogant business execs don't acknowledge luck in how successful they end up being is absurd and hubris. It particularly matters in the scale of success (or sometimes in the failure of something that otherwise would have been successful). I know plenty of companies that were build 100% correctly and launched in early 2020 that were just unlucky in timing with COVID. That's just one example. But sure, people can go around thinking that they are just smarter and better than everyone else. The reality is complicated and multi-variate. Like I stated about Elon.
