Thank god, I'm also well off and work hard. But I know plenty who work hard and aren't. Luck is a big factor.

Working at creating value is what matters, not just working hard.

Can you explain this? Value for whom? The business owner, the customer, yourself? Can you please give an example?

Value for the person you're going to trade it to.

If you work hard to make a mud pie, you've created no value, and nobody will want it.

If you work hard to make an apple pie, people will be willing to give you money for it, because you created something of value to them.
