Everyone's lucky
T here always appears to be heavy opinion on the side of hard work, compared to how lucky we can be.
Truly, hard work counts for success because through it a person can be at the peak of success. But, the entire credit to hard work might not be right as luck too seems to have a role in all that. So, the presence of both luck and hard work is there in any success story.
Think who works the hardest. No, not businessman, not doctors either.
It's the labourers. Just imagine him sweating it out the entire day and yet he is not rich.
Now, analyze it yourself. Does not luck play an important role for him? Is it not because of luck he is poor despite working hard? It's luck that decides the place of your birth, whether in a poor family or rich family. So, the role of luck in any individual’s life is there, though it is not visible like hard work. For one particular reason we take the support of hard work because it is physical.
If you are wondering whether you are lucky or not. Don’t get confused; it’s with us bust the thing is only to make it work for us. You probably cannot call yourself lucky if you have won yourself a huge amount playing bingo because you may lose it within a month.
It’s something foolish to call yourself unlucky just because you could not win a trip to South Africa to watch World cup 2010 through a draw. People who think they are lucky expect good things to happen to them, so they are optimistic.
What do you call the Pandavas?
Lucky or unlucky? They were born in a noble family, came up with such great power and achieved victory in the end.
Now, will it not be stupid if we call them unlucky simply for the fact they lost all gambling? Luck is there for all of us. We simply need to search for it seriously and the best possible way to search for luck is through sincere effort with positive vision.
It’s wrong to claim yourself unlucky simply because you don’t win in a game of ludo or cards. No matter what you are, even a laborer, you can give good education to your children for their bright future. You will definitely feel lucky to be the father of such wonderful son or daughter at that time. But you can never avoid hard work, hard work and luck come all together. So, we all are lucky in one way or the other.
