Whether or not someone achieves their aims is mostly by a question of luck. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

It is argued that lucky is the key to some people’s
success
. As achievement is only attributed by hard
work
and
determination
, I completely disagree with
this
opinion. If
success
was free, everyone would have it. In fact, there are few successful individuals because each of them is determined and industrious. The harder people
work
on their dream, the more confident they become. Those who lack self-esteem
also lack
Suggestion
also lacking
determination
and end up losing hope and giving up,
as a result
they are the failure.
For instance
, Thomas Edison, one of the greatest inventors in the 20th century, conducted thousands of failed experiments with the filament until the finest light bulb was produced. His
success
is made by his hard
work
, rather than
luck
. Another clear case of
success
through
determination
is Nguyen Ngoc Ky, a disabled man. He could not write by hand;
however
, with his
determination
and hard word, he is able to write by his foot and became a successful teacher.
By contrast
,
luck
does not play a role on one’s achievements.
Luck
is just a state of mind, so if people are dependent on
luck
they could never be successful.
For instance
, a student who does not study for an exam, might fail.
Moreover
, it is clear that a person who wins a lottery, might soon lose all of his or her money as it does not require anything to achieve. In conclusion, for all reasons I have mentioned above, I believe that to become a successful person at the end of the day, people must be hardworking and determined to
work
on their
