Bad Luck or Dumbness?

Salman Kasbati has posted a very enlightening entry on his blog, titled Luck vs. Details.

About 5 years ago, in the last year at FAST, I managed to make a group of some of the best people from our batch:

• Ali Safri (joined ITIM after graduation, now in PWC Logistics, Dubai)
  
• Imran Saeed (TPS, Karachi)
  
• Qasim Ijaz (joined TPS, then Kalsoft and has just now finished his MS from Pennsylvania State University, USA)
  
• And yours truly (joined Cressoft, then Avanza Solutions and now in Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden)
  

The aim was to win 11th All Pakistan AQ Khan Software Competition. Ideally it should have been a track back post but I think I should put the rest of the story on Salman's blog as comments.
