Winning the Lottery - a metaphor for a life's journey

But have we considered other lotteries that we’ve already won or lost in life that have had a more profound impact on us? Majid Abai shares his personal journey from refugee to American entrepreneur and how chance plays an important role in one’s life, but first you have to buy that lottery ticket.
