Not just chance. You have to see the opportunities AND work to take advantage of them. Worries the work, they wouldn't happen.

You can still see the opportunity, attempt to succeed, and fail, through no fault of your own. And conversely, you can do everything wrong and still succeed. There's a reason we have the term "failing upwards", or businesses that succeed not because of their actions, but in spite of them.

Chance is a substantial (but not the only) component to success.
