is likely to succeed only when one has worked with whole-hearted devotion and perseverance. those who are lazy, sloppy and indifferent to their work, those who never concentrate on work will definitely end in failure. on the whole, as far as they are concerned, hard-working is the decisive factor to success.
in my view, both hard work and opportunity eventually matters. they are inseparable from each other, and put together, they make a great success. hard work is to luck what fish is to water, and can be seen as an interior precondition of success. it lays the corner-stone for building a house while luck serves to cement it, to make the building bricks adherent to one another. they are the twins that contribute to success together. they are the factors from within and without respectively. we must work hard, make efforts and get prepared. when opportunities come, meet and make full use of them. only in this way can we succeed one day.
