# Some people believe that success in life comes from taking risks or chances. Others believe that success results from careful planning. In your opinion, what does success come from? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

In many situations, some people believe that success in life comes from taking risks or chances. On the contrary, others think success comes as a result of careful planning. In my opionion, I strongly adhere that success in life comes as a result of careful planning. My point of view will be elaborated below.

First and foremost, People preparing for various types of examinations should outline a better planning method if they wish to be successful at the end. I have once been a victim of those who think that success is as a result of risks. What happened? When I was going in for the advace level end of course examination, I held the opinion of others who spent no time preparing for the exam that passing it was a matter of luck and at the end failed. Not wanting to be victimized any longer, I came out with a study schedule in the next session which guided me to study and finally I emerged victorious and with flying colors. This really let me to understand that most people who succeed in life is as a result of careful planning.

More over, the world has become a small village where different examinations are organised in some countries and written in other. This examinations are of different formats and going in for one entails you master the format and have variety of skills to prepare for it if you intend to have good scores. The Test Of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) is a good example. If you are a native of this language and you do not know that it is made up of; reading, listening, speaking and writing, how will you will be successful when you go in for it? It is impossible.

To summarise, one should not believe that success in life comes by chances or rists as the above points explained those who succeed in life is mostly as a result of careful planning which enables them to have a good mastery of what they intend to do.

Not wanting to be victimized any longer, I came out with a study schedule in the next session which guided (my studies) and finally I emerged victorious and with flying colors.

I am new member of this forum. I strongly belive that this forum is very helpful to lear english. I am starting to write in this forum. The following writing is a very raw eassy and I have not check them for a second time. Please some comments as a beginer what is my level and how can I improve. My test is in very resent.

Every body want to be succeed in life. For that they try in different way. But it is uncertain who will succeed and who will not. To be successful some people even take the chance or risk. I don’t belive that chance or risk can be make a person succeeful.

Success is a long run matter. It can’t get by a day. Some one may get a lottery and be come wealthy but it is not success. Again some may play a risky game. Win the game may make him successful but the rate is very low. Most of the people looses in that sort of play, only few win. But if you try hard the you must be reach up to a level. If we go for a specific example like a student decided some sort of question important for his exam and he lean those very well. He will be really lucky if question is come from that set. But it is by chance and if the question is not accordingly he will do worse in the exam. But if he tried hard and get an idea on whole syllabus obiously he could write something in the exam and get some credit. So to be successful, one should try hard rather relying on the chance because chance may not come to his life.
