HR professional Melissa Stone, 43, says the 'luck of the Irish' is not about chance but perspective and making the most of opportunities.
The executive career coach from County Wexford advises shifting focus to recognise achievements, stop comparisons, and surround oneself with positive influences.
She argues that success comes from mindset and action, not luck alone. Stone’s tips include celebrating wins, seeking opportunities, and staying open to possibilities rather than dwelling on obstacles.
