What we call luck is simply pluck and perseverance. It is doing things over and over with courage, faith and will power. We get out of life just what we put into it. No one gets anything worthwhile by accident. Our hidden desires motivate and drive us to work towards the fulfillment of our goals consciously as well as subconsciously. Biographies of great proclaim that life is what we make it.
Sooner or later, the man who wins is the man who thinks he can. Believe you can, and act on that belief and certainly you will succeed. You cannot but win, so long as your faith remains unshaken and your will unbroken. Anything accomplished by any other human being can most certainly be accomplished by us as well. In fact, if we try harder, we can accomplish a lot more. Everyday we find some record or the other being shattered and a new one being established. Each year sees progress made in almost every field. The success story of every great person proclaims that whatever be the chosen field of activity, if one works hard with faith, concentration and determination, one will positively reach the top and crown oneself with sure success.
