You call its luck......

"He worked by day, and toiled by night:


He gave up play and some delight.


dry books he read, new things to learn


And forged ahead, success to earn.


He plodded on with faith and pluck:


And when he won, men called it luck."

very true.

We dont know how much hard work the other person has put it to achieve dat very place.

least we can do is not call it luck. because dat would make dat person feel dat no1 recognised his work.smiley

Really its a fact.....!!!!!!!!!

 

The big secret in life is that there is no big secret. Whatever your goal, you can get there if you’re willing to work.

 

 

Hard work with intelligence always pays

"A LITTLE PROGRESS EVERY DAY ADDS UP TO BIG RESULTS"

The poem and what Mr Jefferson said is one version of luck. There is another version also.

One has to keep doing Karma. When luck favors you, you may really have a windfall and when luck derserts you you could be in a royal mess. In Jain philosophy this is called Purushartha and Prarabhdh. Mr Bachchan also said in Kaun Banega karodpati " Bhagya me likha hai woh milega par karm karna padega"

I have read four bowlers saying," Sometimes we bowl very well and we get no wickets and sometimes we bowl shabbily but have a windfall"

I have heard several business people talk like this. It should apply even more in the stock market. The most intelligent trader I have come across(takes positions upto 15000 shares and very good at technicals) has also learnt astrology specially to improve his chances. So luck in the true sense of the term also has some meaning and luck is when preparation and opportunity meet as revealed by the poem is also true.
