Some people believe that luck is something that favours a select few people, while others are of opinion that is the result of sheer hard work.

Though luck makes great differences in the lives of some people, there are differing views on whether luck is something that favours a few or it is the outcome of hard-work. An objective analysis may reveal that it is hard work that makes even the luckiest stay so all through his or her life. 45 words

It is obvious that luck favours some in the form of opportunities, unexpected wealth, birth right or providence. Some people are lucky by birth, some get lucky when they make use of the opportunities rightly, and there are some who happen to be lucky by winning some raffles or lotteries. In all the cases, being merely lucky is not enough to be successful all through one’s life. For example, if a poor man, who happens to get a million dollar lottery, is not able to manage that fortune effectively, he will end up nowhere and he may even become poorer than what he was. 90 words

On the other hand, there are innumerable examples to prove that some people are lucky just because of their grit, determination and hard-work. What makes them lucky is nothing but their being able to identify the hidden fire in them. Once it is identified, they would do everything possible to foster it and get the best out of it. For example, our former President A.P.J Abdul Kalam had a very humble beginning. But he was able to identify the scientist in him in his very early age itself. He kept on chasing that dream through great difficulties. He later proved himself to be not only lucky but world-famous as well. Had he not been working harder, would he have ever been lucky or popular? No. 100 words

So, looking at both the angles, it is right to conclude that luck is something that needs to be identified rightly and pursued relentlessly through hard work. Of course, there may be stray instances in which one may remain lucky with no reason at all. But real luck never happens to someone who is not hard-working. 45 words
