[QUOTE="jack4ever, post: 889122, member: 15968"] I'm not sure that it has anything to do with luck. If you have skills that people are willing to pay for, you get hired and stay on. I didn't just have one offer when I made it into the video games industry, I had three. From there it was a matter of deciding where to go. I chose California. No matter what happens with this specific job, I'm certain I'll be in video games for the rest of my career, if I want to. I spent my time away from UPS developing the skills that I knew would be useful in the video games industry. That said, I've had other dreams that didn't work out. For example, one of my other dreams was to write novels, but that is a field which seems "luck" dependent to me, so I didn't pursue it as rigorously as I did the video games industry. I think part of the reason I'm getting into my dream job is because I had more than one dream, so when one option seemed unreachable, I had something else to pursue. [/QUOTE]
