Opinions vary on what determines one’s success in life, hard work or luck. Both hard work and luck are essential to attaining success, but I personally believe the former plays a greater role in maximizing one’s chances of being successful.

The importance of hard work in achieving outstanding results is paramount. This is simply because one is often required to spend a great deal of time and effort to excel in their studies or job. Poor effort and insufficient time invested in one’s endeavors tend to lead to average outcomes, making them less successful than others. People of great stature such as Elon Musk and Cristiano Ronaldo often attribute their wins to their work ethics, which goes to show the role of hard work for success. Others ascribe success to luck or factors outside one’s control such as genetics, family circumstances, connections, and unexpected fortunate events. Someone with strong physical genetics stands a better chance of becoming an NBA player just as an individual born to an affluent family is more likely to realize their business ideas than someone from humble origins.

In my personal view, if one is to succeed in life, they should place a greater emphasis on hard work. Success often necessitates that an individual be exceptionally good at their job, whether it is cooking or running a country. Excellence in one’s job usually comes from a considerable amount of learning and practice, which requires time and effort. As such, the more time and effort they expend on their craft, the more likely it is that they master it, ensuring their future success. Besides, luck is never guaranteed as it is elusive in nature and often favors only a few. Relying on luck creates indifference, leading to inaction and complacency. Therefore, people who count more on luck than hard work usually make less effort and miss opportunities to increase their odds of success.

In conclusion, having brought hard work and luck into comparison in terms of their importance in one’s success, I am now more convinced that people should prioritize their work ethics over their luck to achieve desirable outcomes in life.

Admittedly, there are credible reasons why one's success can be attributed to both hard work and luck. In some people's opinion, so as to excel at their studies or job, an individual has to dedicate a considerable amount of time and effort since poor effort and insufficient quantity of time can lead to average outcomes, resulting in them being less successful than others. Successful people such as Elon Musk and Cristiano Ronaldo are often seen to put their wins down to their work ethics which is to make hard work indispensable part of success in life. Others, however, ascribe success to luck saying that factors outside one's control such as genetics, family circumstances, a set of contacts and unexpected fortunate events can have a profound impact in their success. For instance, someone with strong genetics stands a better chance of becoming an NBA player just as someone born in an affluent family is less likely to struggle setting up their own business.

In some people's view, whether a person achieves success or not boils down to how hard they work while others believe that luck plays a more significant role. In my opinion, both hard work and luck's contribution should be acknowledged in person's success, but hard work should receive more credit for several reasons
I personally would give hard work more credit though I still believe that both of their contribution in success should be acknowledged.
