Agree or Not?“When people succeed, it is because of hard work. Luck has nothing to do with success.” In the recent year, people are always looking for the success and want to be the successful person. However, there are not everyone who can achieve on their expected goal. Is it because they are unlucky even though they work hard? Or is it because they are luckier than others? In my opinion, both luckiness and working hard are significantly related to being a successful person. So, I disagree with this quotation for a few reasons . Firstly, I believe that working hard without any lucks will reflect that person is a diligent person to the society. For example, I was working hard on my studying during my last semester, but I accidentally had a stomached on the test date, so I couldn’t do well on that test. On the other ways, if I accidentally meet my American friend who is asking me on the same topics that I am going to be tested on the TOEFL speaking section in next few hours, I am a lucky girl. However, if I don’t well prepare for the test and get too nervous while I do it, my luck cannot help me to get a good score. Secondly, in my point of view, hard working on something doesn’t mean that people can do well on that thing. According to my experience, I used to work hard on reading a book and tried to remember all content which are written on that book, while my friend read it and always had the question on some issues of its content and then she tried to figure out with her systematic thinking, finally, I could answer the questions exam by writing all content I had read, while my friend answered by applying the real situation together with referred to the content in the book. So, she got the best score meanwhile I got just a mean score. In conclusion, I am strongly disagree that people will succeed because of their hard working without any luckiness. Additional, if people has worked hard without a logical thinking, they wouldn’t succeed on their expected goal.

Agree or Not? “When people succeed, it is because of hard work. Luck has nothing to do with success.”

Millions if not billions of people are aiming for success and strive to be a successful person. However, not everyone achieves their goal. Is it because they are unlucky despite their hard work? Or is it because others are luckier? In my opinion, both luck and hard work hard are required to be a successful person.

I disagree with the quotation above for two main reasons.
.
Firstly,  I believe working hard without luck demonstrates to society that the person is diligent but it doesn't guarantee success. For example, I worked hard on my studies last semester, but I happened to have a stomach-ache on the test date, so I couldn’t do well on that test. Another time I was lucky and bumped into my American friend who quizzed me about the test topics for the TOEFL speaking section in the next few hours. However, if I hadn’t prepared well for that test and got too nervous while I did it, then luck would not have helped me get a good score.

Secondly, from my point of view, working hard on something doesn’t mean a person can do the thing well.  For example, I once worked hard reading a book and tried to remember all the content, while my friend read it and questioned some of the issues so she figured them out logically. In the exam, I answered the questions by writing down all the content I had read, while my friend answered by referring to the content in the book and applied it to real situations. So she got a top score while I just got an average score.

In conclusion, I strongly disagree with the claim that people succeed because of hard work alone, without any luck. Additionally, if people work hard without thinking logically, they won't achieve their goals.
