"A little government and a little luck are necessary in life, but only a fool trusts either of them." - P.J. O'Rourke

Trust is the foundation of every relationship. The idea of completely
trusting someone you don’t know should be a little frightening. Yet, people
blindly trust their lives to the government. This is pretty fascinating when
you consider one of the least trusted occupations is that of a politician!
If you think about this for moment you will realize that those people who
are putting their trust in the government basically trust a group of people
they consider untrustworthy!

In my opinion luck is a little different. I know several people who are very
lucky. However, they do not put their trust in luck – and that is why they
are lucky! They are lucky because they are always working. They are lucky
because they don’t trust their future to luck. They put their trust in
working hard towards a goal.

Almost every instance of luck that I have experienced has had more to do
with hard work and preparation than it has to do with luck.

For what its worth, put your trust in something that is worthy of your
trust.
