Luck & Hard work

Back in time, when Bill Gates was a student at Lakeside school, there were around 303 million students at the same time all over the world. Of them only 300 students have access to internet roughly one in a million. That’s a sheer luck to be in those 300 students to have access to the computer during those times. However, there were only 2 more students apart from Bill who became the champions in computer, Kent Evans and Paul Allen. Kent died in a mountaineering accident, where one in a million people died during that time. It’s a rare instance again. Bill considered Kent had the business mind and was a problem solver at heart. Left with Paul and Bill now, who went ahead and founded Microsoft. The place where we are born has a huge impact on our upbringing. It doesn’t mean hard work doesn’t play any key role. Obviously, it is the key driver. Since there were 297 more students who had access to computer but probably, they had different interest and passion. The environment in which we are brought up and the friends we chose to have plays a significant role.

The luck isn’t in our hand, but the hard work is. The more effort we put, the more luck we can create. Complaining others have better luck won’t help but acknowledging it will surely do. Some can do sums quickly or memorize things quickly than us. Maybe they have put on lots of hard effort in the past and we are focusing only on the present results.

The game ludo is a mix of both luck and strategy. Without right numbers at the right time, you can’t win the match, how good your strategy maybe. In the game of life, the dice is ‘time’. The more efficiently you use the better you become.
