{"content":"###### Luck is when preparation meets opportunity\n\n#### “Nothing about my life is lucky. Nothing. A lot of grace, a lot of blessings, a lot of divine order, but I don't believe in luck. For me, luck is preparation meeting the moment of opportunity. There is no luck without you being prepared to handle that moment of opportunity. Every single thing that has ever happened in your life is preparing you for the moment that is to come.\" — Oprah Winfrey, a famous TV Reality host.\n\nIt is interesting to see LUCK in a new light as defined by Oprah Winfrey. She remarked that if a person is not prepared, LUCK would not have come his or her way. In Heads Up International, besides preparing our students to have a strong foundation, we also see to it that our students develop some essential life skills, such as coding, and public speaking. A Financial Literacy course is also embedded into our curriculum to train children to be financially savvy. Sports and games are organised to develop future healthy and productive young leaders. We also work in collaboration with NGOs and the Lions Club International to let our students take part in community service, which we hope will mould hearts of gold and compassion for the less privileged and needy, be it locally or abroad. Some students even seize the chance to participate in the Youth Exchange programme abroad, which benefits them in the aspect of independent living and cultural exposure. These exciting opportunities and programmes beyond just academics have allowed our students to stand above their peers with pride. They are ever ready to seize opportunities that come their way. This explains why every child at Heads Up International is a success story. Not mere luck! A lot of preparation and hard work have paved the way throughout their school journey, behind the scenes, to give our students a Heads Up in life.","original_url":"https://headsup.com.my/","word_count":322,"key_claims":["Heads Up International IGCSE Centre Malaysia"],"content_summary":"Heads Up is an IGCSE centre in Malaysia.","expertise_signals":["IGCSE education"]}
