I NEED QUOTES from LUCKY PEOPLE!!!

[PEERless]

Are you lucky? On a winning-streak?

Would you like to be quoted (i.e. promoted) in a new eBook? (If it sells well, I'll sell it in print too.

I'm looking for quotable quotes from reputable/successful/lucky people for the main book as well as sales page and cover blurbs.

The book is about the old adage that luck is just the meeting of preparation and opportunity. Tell me how you have prepared for an opportunity. Or tell me how you sought out a great opportunity. I'm especially interested in anecdotes about winning streaks -- times it seemed you just couldn't lose!

I'm looking for wisdom. Stuff that will really help my readers. Let me know if you'd be interested in doing more in-depth interviews.

For more info, see the eBook link in my signature. (Forgive the current page. I'm running some optimization tests.)

Thanks, in advance, fastlaners! :thankyousign:
