You build your own luck through your decisions and actions. When you want to progress in your career, sometimes all you’ve got to do is keep your head down, chisel away at it, be tenacious and wait for the opportunity to come, because it will come and faster if you have proven yourself. The general culture of a company can make it or break it and the mindset has to come from the top. The bar has to be set by the leaders and communicated clearly across the organization. Recognizing the “luck” you received in your successes in life is a sign of humility. However, you’ve got to do something with this luck, you’ve got to use it as an opportunity to grow in your career or as a person.  “You have to network, you have to get to know people, get your foot in the door. But then once you get that foot in the door, it's all on you. And you've got to earn everything that you get.” - Tom DurneyConnect with Tom Durney:Website: www.crosscountrymortgage.com Email: [email protected]  Connect with Steve and Jason:LinkedIn: Jason or SteveWebsite: Rewire, Inc.: Transformed Thinking Email: [email protected] notes by Podcastologist: Justine TallaAudio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.
