"Lucky breaks" are what people on the sidelines always accuse people in the game of catching.
Want to catch your own lucky break?
Suit up.
Get in the game.
Get your nose bloodied, your hands dirtied.
People on the sidelines never catch a lucky break. They catch foul balls.
Is it easier to yell about what you could do or could be or could accomplish someday from the sidelines?
Yes.
Will any of it happen if you stay there?
No.
Complain all you want about people who catch "lucky breaks," but the truth is painfully simple.
Every touchdown in history, every home run in the last 100 years, every goal scored in every single game of every single sport, happened on the field, not the sidelines.
So either play or don't, but don't for a second act like there's any confusion about where lucky breaks occur and who has access to them.
