"When people succeed, it is because of hard work. Luck has nothing to do with success." Do you agree or disagree with the quotation above?

Luck is necessary. If you don’t have a chance, you will not succeed

Luck is not enough to be successful. You need to grab the chance.

I don’t agree that ‘ Luck has nothing to do with success.’ I think hard work and luck are both necessary to be successful.

All famous people are lucky. For example, if the apple didn’t fall on Newton’s head, he would never think about why the apple always fell down. Then, he would not be able to find out why. He could be a great scientist.

 Therefore, luck is also necessary for success. If a person doesn’t work hard, it’s hard for him or her to succeed, but if a person isn’t lucky, he or she would never be successful. Luck gives you a chance to be successful. For instance, if a person is born in a poor family and he could not go school, he couldn’t study. If he didn’t know enough knowledge about something, he would not be a great personage in this field in a peace times.

Therefore, luck is important to be success. But it only gives you a chance to be successful. If you don’t work hard to take advantage of an opportunity, you also would not be able to be success. Opportunities are only for the prepared minds. If you aren’t careful with everything you do, your chances will diminish. Let’s think about Newton again. Of course, he was lucky to be hit by an apple, but he was not the only one who has ever been hit by an apple. The difference between them is that Newton saw this as an opportunity, where as people would think about that how unlucky they were.

So I think luck is necessary. When people succeed, it is because of hard work and luck.
