Some
people

 believe that
success

 in life depends primarily on
luck

.
While
Linking Words
 I believe that
luck

 can make a person successful and rich, it is certainly not the most important factor. There is no doubt that
luck

 matters in some ways.
Firstly

luck

For example

 than

 born in poor families.
Secondly

, today
success

 is mainly defined by wealth and there are a lot of ways in which
luck
Use synonyms
 can help
people

 to become wealthy. To illustrate, they can win a lottery or win money through shares in the stock market.
However
Linking Words
, I believe that hard
work
Use synonyms
 and talent are much more important than
luck
Use synonyms
. The main reason is that
luck

 can get
people

opportunities
Use synonyms
 but to have sustained
success

 in life
people

 need to

 hard.
For example

Similarly

, a person might be lucky to be born rich but unless he studies hard, he would not be able to get into a good university, and without

 education, it is nearly impossible to be successful in life today.
Moreover

Finally

, I think
success

 is
also

 about a person’s mental satisfaction and the satisfaction that
people

 achieve from hard
work
Use synonyms
 can never be achieved by winning a lottery or getting lucky. In conclusion, I would like to repeat that
luck

 can help us be successful in some ways, but hard
work

 and talent matter much more.

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.

Linking words for giving examples:

  • for example
  • for instance
  • to illustrate this
  • to give a clear example
  • such as
  • namely
  • to illustrate
  • take, for example
