>Anyone who believes startup outcomes are mostly luck doesn’t have what it takes to be a successful founder—you need to have the belief that you can shape the outcome.

The two aren't mutually exclusive.

Probably because most of this website sits behind a desk writing software thinking it gets sold because of magical fairies and luck, not 10000 agonizing cold calls.
