"Luck Likes the Man Who Shows Up"

Full screen recommended.
Delta Blues Brother,
"Luck Likes the Man Who Shows Up"
"Everybody loves calling it luck after they see the result. They don't see the mornings you didn't feel like getting up. The weeks when nothing happened. The doors that stayed closed. The work nobody noticed. Then one finally opens: “Damn, you're lucky.” “Luck Likes the Man Who Shows Up” is an original Delta blues song about consistency, discipline, opportunity, hard work, and the simple advantage of being there when life finally gives you a chance. Gritty resonator guitar, soulful harmonica, a rolling Delta blues groove, and some dry old-man humor carry a lesson that doesn't promise success - because life doesn't work that way. “Some days winning looks a whole lot like showing up already tired.” This is the blues of showing up anyway. Hard work doesn't guarantee that everything will work out. Good people lose. Talented people get overlooked. Sometimes life simply deals a bad hand. But opportunity has a difficult time finding somebody who never leaves the couch. You can't control what life brings... but you can damn sure be there when it does. And maybe that's what people sometimes mistake for luck."
