The fish doesn’t jump onto the hook, and the deer doesn’t run in front of the gun. Similarly, opportunities must be pursued. Lucky people know this. Instead of waiting for good things to simply fall into their laps, they use their opportunity intelligence: the ability to recognize and seize opportunities – and the right ones! Scherer makes it clear in his Spiegel bestseller what one needs to know about opportunities to become a lucky person themselves. "The kind of luck I mean when I talk about lucky people is a state of happiness that is not triggered by a random stroke of luck, but by a way of living that allows one to continuously discover and utilize opportunities. This book is about these lucky individuals and their unique perspective on opportunities." Hermann Scherer.
