I can’t tell you how many people comment that I’m lucky to have a job I love. It’s becoming a thing.
I do have a job I love, but it isn’t by luck, it’s by design. I chose to be an author/editor/creative entrepreneur. I left a job with a pension to do this and that option is open to anyone. Most people don’t do it though, because being happy – authentically happy – involves risk. And risk is scary.
Standing out and being different – being the fifth hammer – is scary.
You can have the job/relationship/life you want, but luck has nothing to do with it.
