Does luck has anything to do with success?
Some people believed that they achieved success by their own ability, whereas
other people believed that they did it by luck. As for me, I would like to side
with the former people. I am willing to discuss it by proposing two main
reasons.
First, As for the genuine meaning of the term 'success', luck is not the dominant
aspect to gain success. What is success? I like to say that success is a great
integration of a good motivation, a good procedure, and a good result. That is,
success means not only the self-realization or economic abundance, but also
enduring endeavor or firm belief. Being a rich man or powerful man without
hard work is never a 'success'.
Second, for the social cohesion, I support the former point of view. If we
acknowledge that a person who becomes a rich man due to luck as a successful
man, we would lose the moral principle that makes our community safe and
harmonious. That is because most people are willing to buy lottery or play
gambling instead of work hard. TSTo pain, No gain' is not fallacy.
As for me, I would like to live in a society where there is no luck for success. I
believe that hard labor and great endeavor rather than luck is the origin of
human happiness and success.
