However, I do believe that the harder that I work, the luckier I get. By that, I mean that by having a good work ethic and pursuing your dream, your mind becomes open to the opportunities (luck) that most people will overlook I think it was Edison who said, and I am paraphrasing, "most people don't succeed because success is often disguised as hard work". I agree. The cry that those who are successful are lucky is the top rail on the fence that keeps the herd of mediocrity together.

Its relative importance may depend on a particular circumstance, but it comes more often to those with the five traits than others - "luck comes to those who work hard".

I find that I've blocked out everything else but keeping in contact with people on these is so addictive. Especially since I have them forwarded to my phone if I leave my office. New services like Twitter make all these things more of a time drain. A big one is AOL instant message or Yahoo IM.

I've yet to make the big jump (to Ubuntu) due to the fact that I have been pursuing a couple of business startups and they are consuming so much time. However, due to a recent "tech issue" (my computer would just reboot randomly), I was about to be pushed into it. Right now, I am back up and running. I have installed a second hard drive in my computer, on which I plan to install Ubuntu and then have a dual boot system. My father-in-law has a computer consulting business and he has offered to help. But if you have any suggestions, please don't hesitate to let me know the pitfalls and precautions.

I'm definitely a Kubuntu guy myself even though I use every operating system. As much as I love Linux I do have to admit that there may be a couple bumps you may hit converting depending on your computer uses. I'm always willing to help though. I think I'll blog a series on this. My wife led me to your blog and I’m a computer consultant. I’m definitely a Kubuntu guy myself even though I use every operating system.
