Topic 10 - hard-working or lucky - Bui Nhung

The formulate of success contains three main factors which are talented, lucky and hard-working. The lack of one of them could lead to failure. In my opinion, I totally disagree with the claim in the topic due to two core reasons.

First and foremost, luck could help our success come sooner. In many circumstances, we are a good understanding of knowledge and willing to spend all days to work. However, we still meet a lot of difficulties that obstruct us to come to a good result. On the contrary, having a little luck, everything runs more smoothly and easily. Time-consuming situation will never have chance to happen. For example, in business, to set up a small business, we desire capital. A feasible business plan has been outlined. Market opportunities to start up are favorable and available. But we just have little money. Without more money, our dream can not become true. Fortunately, there are business angels who are ready to invest in our company. Having money and other support form them like experience and administration management, our small enterprise at the beginning will become a large one in 2 or 3 years instead of 10 years. It should be noted that our process to succeed may last longer without luck.

Secondly, luck assists us avoid failure. In our life, there are a lot of situations which go beyond our control. At that time, only luck can save us. For instance, we have a severe disease. We have met a lot of doctors, tried to use enormous measures; however, that disease can not disappear. With little hope, by chance, we have been cured by a new method that has just invented. Or sometimes, we do prepare carefully for a outdoor trip. Unfortunately, it rains heavily. Our trip must be cancelled. That case is our of our control, so it is necessary for us to have luck.

On the other hand, luck that is not just a present of god can be created by ourselves. The saying that luck is nothing is mainly due to the fact that luck is just considered a gift. However, it is not a good chance if there is no our effort. I am strongly convinced that luck only come to persons who have bright goals, go right direction and have a good preparation. When the luck comes, they are able to catch it. there are a lot of people seeking a job in finance. Just some people know of recruitment of a large and famous bank which could facilitate our career. That is a really big chance. Nevertheless, without having the above standards, we will never have that job. In contrast, if having a right and suitable preparation, we can seize it easily.

All in all, being lucky gives us more advantages than having no luck. It helps our success come more earlier or stay away a breakdown. It is not only a present but also a result of our own attempt.
