Luck and Chance

There is a lot to think about….

I remember a post in Facebook about lots/land for sale that I found on Zillow that reminded me of my old address in Bowie, MD. That address reminded me of my name because it was full of doubles. Here is the post:

Luck may have been involved. I wrote an article on luck years ago:

Are You Lucky?

This all makes me think of timing, luck, chance and Almighty God. As I stated in the article,

Some believe God controls our luck and determines how and when events occur. Some believe we make our own luck by making things happen. One thing is for sure: “the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, nor bread to the wise, nor riches to the intelligent, nor favor to those with knowledge, but time and chance happen to them all.” – Bible, Ecclesiastes 9:11.

FEATURED

I am working to be published.

I completed 11 signature assignments – significant papers with original ideas. In one paper, I foresaw specific problems at a major company. In another, I designed a study (with statistical analyses) to explain why videos do not significantly enhance or improve online reviews. I worked alone. My signature assignments available at: https://fahmeenaodettasignaturepapers.tumblr.com.

About THIS BLOG

I created this blog to capture my thoughts and ideas and to practice writing. Why practice writing? I was on a break from my PhD and not writing much. I needed to continue writing regularly – I wrote and submitted weekly assignments/papers.
I also track my mental health using this blog.

I am currently working on publishing my papers in academic journals. Click the ‘paperforpublishing’ tag in the tags section below for my last status update. My main area of specialization is usability/user experience. Click on the ‘usability’ tag to view my posts, including ideas, on usability.
