My opinion is that success does have a certain amount of luck in it. For example Bill Gates just happened to be in the only school in the US that had a computer of its kind. If it wasn’t for that, then maybe microsoft would have never existed.
However, I also believe that we have to make the most out what comes our way. Back to Bill Gates, there were obviously other students in that school that could of taken the interest in the computer.
So in the end, LUCK is what we make out of each situation that comes our way.
