Cricket is game of averages. Sometimes you score centuries, sometimes you get out on duck. Though, if you play well over a long period of time, your average should likely be amongst best.
Business is game of averages. Sometimes you make bumper sales, sometimes you make paltry amount. Though, if you sustain, you end up making big money.
Stock market is game of averages. Not all stocks in your portfolio will perform. In portfolio of 10 stocks, a single 10x stock can cover for the remaining suckers.
There’s a secret amongst high achievers.
While most people are seeking novelty, irrespective of whether they’re doing great or not, you’ll do better if you keep showing up. Consistently. Trying to improve your performance. Day in & out.
Over a period of time, you’ll get lucky. Maybe, they’ll start calling you an overnight success.
P. S: ‘Game of averages’ doesn’t promotes being an average person. It in fact takes you away from mediocrity.
