Hustle and preparation allow smaller quantities of blind luck to be turned into success. Otherwise it takes a lot more blind luck to overcome a lack of preparation, and large quantities of blind luck are harder to find.

Ummmm... Hustle and prep get you absolutely nowhere if you're hustling and prepping for the wrong thing or doing so the wrong way.
