Abraham Lincoln Quote - I will study and prepare myself and perhaps some day my chance will come.

I will study and prepare myself and perhaps some day my chance will come. – Abraham Lincoln

This is one of my favorite quotes.  At times we see someone who achieved something that looks like it happened overnight, but most of the time it was all the study and preparation that allowed it to happen.  Think of the studying and preparation as the key to unlocking a door to your opportunity.  You are much better off to be prepared for your moment than not to be prepared when your moment comes.
