LUCK

LUCK

Sometimes, it is difficult to explain the cause of an effect, but one thing is certain, there can be no effect without a cause. The cause might be unknown, unexplainable, or even accidental; however it might have been, the effect will be evident just as normal. Some men would sometimes get what people, or even they themselves think they do not deserve, but you can not always separate a cause from its effect, whether intentionally made or not.

Luck does not always mean what we want, but what we work for or not. Douglas MacArthur once said, "The best luck of all is the luck you make for yourself." but if what you are creating is not what you want, you will create for yourself the luck that follows your creation.

In the words of Seneca, "Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity." The success that one achieves suddenly after a long period of intense, determined, and dedicated hard-work will look like luck until one knows what has gone into that moment of opportunity. Prepared men will see opportunities in difficulties, but unprepared men would see difficulties in opportunities.

Life will deal with you in the exact measure of your dealings with life. You may not always get what you deserve, but that which you have gotten could be just what you need to have. Like Cormac McCarthy once said, "You never know what worse luck your bad luck has saved you from." When you do not get what you want, just keep moving, every step of the way moves you closer to the reality you are creating for yourself. LUCK is just a product of your efforts.
