Thanks for sharing your story. Your experience is key—there may be a strong luck component to success, but with enough attempts, it seems that your luck increases. Often, hidden behind "overnight successes" is a trail of failures.

Yes, exactly. You'll be surrounded by succeeding and failing people, and you'll see patterns in decision making, execution and (in)valiations. It helps tremendously. Also, I'm feeling very confident in my position and execution because I've suffered enough over the past years. So current challenges feel much easier.
