Thinking About Success

LUCK-4

OPPORTUNITY-3

SKILL-2

HARD WORK-1

Luck- Luck has absolutely NOTHING to do with economic success. Sure, one might get lucky every once in a while, but success comes from hard work, skill, intelligence, and dedication to bettering yourself.

Opportunity- While opportunity is important when looking for a job, it is not that important because if you are truly gifted at what you do and are a hard worker, a business will most likely hire you even if they are not looking to hire anyone.

Skill- Going off what I said below, skill is an important factor in becoming successful. But if you only rely on having skill, you will not have much success because there are many people in the world who also have that same skill. It all depends on how much work you put in to it.

Hard work- Success does not come to a person unless they are dedicated and put hard work into their career. Sure, you may have a natural gift in that field, but that will only get you so far unless you actually put in the work and put in the effort into becoming successful.

***In my opinion, what makes a person economically successful is a cornucopia of things.  First off, hard work always pays off! However, all the hard work or effort in the world won't matter if you aren't inspired. Secondly, skill or aptitude for a profession is a significant part of becoming successful. Quite frankly, if you aren't good at something, you most likely won't be too successful at it. Lastly, economic success comes from hard work, skill, intelligence, and dedication to bettering yourself.***
