Luck is one of the reward of Hard work

Some people believe I have the devil's luck as they see me excel and being favored in certain things and places, they believe it is luck because they only see the result, they do not see the hard work behind the scenes.

I believe the luck have been bagging is the result of my hard work, it doesn't just come the way people think, being hardworking paves the way for random luck here and there.

You can not be lazy and expect to be lucky in some situations, both complement each other.

I have been writing exams since 4 days ago and because of the workload on me, I end up picking my textbook to read like few hours before the exam but luckily for me, most of what I read in that 3 to 4 hours before the examination always come out, that is luck right? but still, I put in the hard work of learning those things or else it wouldn't have been counted as luck if I didn't study those topics.

Today, I had statistics to write by 1:30 p.m. and I picked up my book to read by 8 a.m, I was reading and still working online too, I focused on certain topics because I knew there was no way I could cover the whole semester scheme within 3 hours, the point is to hope what I read was set as a question and when I got the exam questions, statistics was smiling at me as the first question in the theory section and I smiled back at it, without wasting any more time, I descended on it and before I know it, the first page of the answer sheet booklet was filled.

I was lucky because there are some people who didn't sleep because of this exam, they read throughout the night but still didn't do as much as I did, this could be a result of some factors, they over-read and some of those things they read fly out of their brain and unfortunately it was the questions they set that flew away while those not asked keep popping up on their head while some thinks this particular questions can't come out and ignore it and get the shock of their life when that was the question set.

Another place where my hard work plays a vital role to my being lucky is on Splinterlands

Friends would wonder why it is so easy for me to get Splinterlands accounts to play while it is quite difficult for them to get a single one since they have been searching for one.

I started playing Splinterlands a few months after the game was launched, I played and earned my reputation as one of the top players, this did not just happen, I had sleepless nights, frustrating moments, and days of heartbreak when a single loss didn't make me qualify for the next round in tournament or just one defeat made me lose a position on the leaderboard and many more while playing this games but with every failure, I get better and when you are good, people will know you and the investors that don't have time to play the game hire people like me to generate more income for them...

Now the part where luck comes into play is that A big investor would not give a novice his account to play for him as that would hurt his earnings so they would prefer to give someone like me who has years of experience playing the game and hence why it is easier for me to get an account to play, you call it luck but hard work paves the way for it.

If you want to be lucky, be hardworking

if you want to be successful in life, hard work is the key!

Meanwhile do not just use yourself in the name of hard work, work hard and work smart because you might be hardworking and help others build their empire so you have to use your brain while working hard to make sure you are building yourself!

I have a paper by 9. am tomorrow morning, time to read🏃

Hard Work creates limitless opportunities, I wonder what the definition of luck is to people but to me, luck is that fortune you attract to yourself through what you are capable of doing. Luck comes when we work, it's not something that just falls on us like leaves from the tree. Imagine, you didn't study those topics, how would you have answered the questions? It's hard work that births luck. I love something you said again, "work hard, but work smart too" .wisdom is very paramount, there are many individuals who work harder than you can ever imagine yet they are still little but there are certain individuals who may not necessarily work like them but end up with good result, wisdom is profitable to direct as it is said.

That is hardwork meet luck. When people see you doing good in the same things they tried and did not do well, they tend to say it's luck not knowing that it is your hardwork and dedication. It could be luck but luck does not just come until there is work. It is not easy keeping up with school and Hive, you are really trying, well-done 🙌 and I wish you best of luck in your tomorrow paper.

Hmm
You know that there are also some people who are very hardworking but not lucky
It depends on the individual though. Some people don't even need to stress before they get what they want
That's luck!

Hey bro, I love your point. You are very right about all the points here. Luck and hard work are proportional as they work together. To be successful, you need to work hard and it is from being hardworking that luck shines on you. A lazy person cannot find luck anywhere. You have to take a step first and as they say, luck is like an opportunity and you have to be prepared for it. Luck is when opportunity meets preparation. You just have to work for it and expect to be lucky.
I love your real-life experience to ascertain your point about luck and hard work. I wish you all the best in your exams.

Hard work is what brings luck but that's not what makes us successful, I believe it is beyond us because there are some that works hard but not smart. It is not because the can't work smart but they've not just gotten the privilege to know there is something like Working smart.

I remember how hard some of my friends read for an exam too but in the end I did better than most of them. But I owe that to God because I believe it was him that made that possible because I know those people were really good.

You have taken us to the spiritual realm but yeah I also believe in Grace, just that not everyone believes in it... I am a believer and I know most of what I have achieved is by His grace, some people are more hardworking, and yet they ain't moving as fast

God exist

That's right, not everyone believes in God but that won't change what is. I remember a story of a man who did not believe in God but his neighbor did. The neighbor lost his job and he was struggling and the man asked him, why is the God you believe so much in not helping you? And the neighbor said he believes that God was going to provide.

The man went inside his house and gave the neighbor food and money and said to the neighbor, see, I'm the one that helped you, God did not. But if you look at it, who really helped the neighbor? I'd leave that to anyone to answer, hehe

It is a fact that luck goes to a person who works hard day and night and never diminishes what his heart is and keeps working hard, then one day he becomes so successful that people they get worried when they see that this person didn't have anything a while back.
