I don’t know if you think you’ve been lucky in your
life and if you know what luck is. We say, more or less, that luck is what
appears to us, to our lives, to help us in some situations. In fact, it can be
helpful or not.
In success, there are three factors, not only luck.
They are skills, effort and luck. Effort is very important, maybe the most
important one, because it’s very difficult to be successful without it. You can
have a lot of talent, you can be lucky, but if you don’t work hard you won’t be
completely successful. Sometimes we talk about luck, but what is behind that success
is in fact hard work and effort.
Also skills and talent are very important because you
need to do the thing well to be able to succeed. But without hard work and
effort it is very difficult. You have to work on your skills, not only show
them. It’s necessary to work hard on them to try to improve them. Also, you
sometimes need a bit of help, of luck, although you have a great talent.
And then we have luck, which is an important part of
success but not the most important one. It will appear in different situations
and sometimes will be helpful, but not always.
For being successful, you have to take risks, because
it’s the way to show your talent and that you’ve worked hard to achieve what
you want. You can also be unlucky and loose or be unsuccessful, but if you don’t
take that risk it’ll be difficult to be succeed and be lucky.
So, to conclude, if you want to be successful, you
have to work hard, you need to improve your skills and also try to have a bit
of luck.
