Many people believe that luck is always a key feature for every success. But I personally agree with the following statement “When people succeed, it is because of hard work. Luck has nothing to do with success.”
First of all, people will never get successful only because of luck, but because of hard work. Would sir Newton discovery gravity force if he had only witnessed the apple falling down the tree (I would write) ground? Of course not. After a brilliant breakthrough comes constant work. Newton also said that 99% of his success came from diligence.
Secondly, lazy and disabled people often claim that if they had the chance, if they had the opportunity , they would have succeed. Have they ever thought that no one wants to hire or give them a chance because of their mannners? In order to succed we have to have diligence as a first concern, and then talent. Luck is just a factor created in our mind in order to inspire ourselves to see us through difficulties.
Last but not least, success that comes from our hard work will be more durable than one that comes from luck. Suppose that the one who does not want to do anything except buying lottery everyday, will one day win the special lottery’s prize and becomes a millionaire. Is this considered a success? If yes, will this success be stable? The only thing we know for sure ,is that we are capable to maintain our success if we are diligent, enthusiastic, creative in our work.
For all these reasons , luck has nothing to do with sucess; we must work hard if we want to succed.
Thanks in advance.
