Hard work vs Luck


“ I am a great believer in luck and I find the harder I work, the more I have of it” !! These are the famous lines of Thomas Jefferson. We have often heard of the fact that luck has an important role to play in our lives. People have continuously debated on the same topic over the past years. According to some luck plays a vital role while according to some it's just a form of excuse. What do you think ??
                           According to me, luck hasn’t got a role to play in the movie titled ‘life’. To achieve the fruit of success in our lives, all we need is some amount of intelligence, hard work, patience and of course failure. Have i omitted the word 'luck'?? No, i haven't. According to me luck is a word which cannot be used throughout. (Of course if you are not the lucky one to have won a lottery worth 25 lakhs in a lucky draw contest and a viscous crowd of people is just jealously staring at you). Even if we get lucky some time, doesn't mean we will remain lucky forever. Reaching the top with superfluous amount of luck is intricating but possible; however the opulence of staying on top will not last forever. Staying on top is regarded as the most difficult task and it cannot happen if we use luck as our staircase. You will soon realise your mistake and will suffer from intense mortification of not sensing it earlier.
                     "Two roads diverged in the woods and i took the one less travelled by, and that has made all the difference". A famous line by Robert Frost which implies that no short cut paths are available to reach the top and luck will certainly not help us if hard work is meant to be ignored by you. Sure there will be several hindrances, tumultuous situations to prove us wrong but the one surviving the harsh condition emerges as the winner. The amount of hard work is directly proportional to the amount of luck we will have. Even Charles Darwin’s primordial theory ‘Survival of the fittest’ implies the same. The individual well adapted to the current environment will survive more than the rest. So break all the barriers. Fly high. And never use luck as your walking stick to climb up the mountain of success.
