Toefl®:Luck has nothing to do with success.

[Thaiham95]

When people success, it because of hard work. Luck has nothing to do with success.Agree or disagree?

Whatever in life we have experienced, there is usually many lucky factors. A student fortunately cheats on the exam without recognition of teachers, a lottery winner or even a football player’s goal by using hand. As we can see, for many people, luck plays an essential role in their life. However, as far as I am concerned, ones’ success is dependent on his or her hard work

First thing I want to talk about is that luck cannot be a permanent ingredient for the success. As its meaning, luck sometimes occurs in a special occasion, which is a temporary fortunate rather than a daily factor. Therefore, how can the period when luck appears always coincide with any success of your life? For example, I passed the exam last month surprisingly without reviewing anything. I am indeed lucky at that time with a lot of helps from my friends. However, when my teacher gave out a sudden test right after his lecture, even though my friends had been split out, I was still able to do it correctly without any help because I had listened to my teachers carefully. As a result, I figured out that our achievements are actually contingent upon our industrious efforts rather than any fortune.

Secondly, success is something that really hard to acquire, and people have to extremely keen on trying and working so as to attain it. For example, my uncle was initially a normal engineer, who always had to strive for making a living with normal salary. However, he still continued to work in his company because of the comfortable working atmosphere and his passion for this job. After ten years working hard and saving money, my uncle was able to create his own firms. Now, he is not only a skillful engineer but also a wealthy CEO, who can earn twenty thousand dollars a month. Therefore, his today success is depended greatly on his hard work.

In conclusion, even though luck is an interesting factor of our life, it has no contribution to ones’ success. Moreover, people have to work hard and try their best in order to create their own future.
