Luck And Opportunity

There are many things that contribute to an individual’s success story. There are painstaking efforts on his own part and on the part of others who provide invaluable contributions to his making. There is the work that he does that truly sets him apart from his peers and then again there is this mysterious divine touch that just puts the individual into a completely different orbit. This divine touch is something that is entirely inexplicable; the way some things just fall into place is indeed a mystery for all. If a person but observes keenly at the occurrences in his own life, he realizes that in every single endeavor that he undertakes, there is a factor of variance; there is a factor of unpredictability. This factor is simply known as luck.

Luck is a term that is plainly overused in the current day and age. Almost all the weirdly unsatisfactory things that happen to man are blamed on luck. However if truth be told, the true nature of luck is something that eludes the most intellectually advanced individuals on the face of this earth. So what is luck and what part does it truly play in the life of an aspirant?

If truth be told, luck is nothing but variance. It is the probability that takes into account every single thing in the universe and then amalgamates it into a single unit force of influence. This force plays a major part in all the actions that are committed in the same universe; thus influencing them in many ways. All these actions in turn end up being a part of that very force, influencing the actions in another time and another place; thus the universe rolls around in this symphonic tune of melody or malady as one would have it 😉

To put the above obscure arrangement of monotony into a simple words, I would only say that there are many things that influence the occurrences in your life. You are a fool to believe that everything that happens in your life, happens due to your own virtue. If man but introspects dispassionately, he realizes that he indeed has so little control over his own life. Most of the occurrences that come to pass are governed by forces that woefully remain out of the scope of comprehension for the common man.

So in a nutshell luck is something that is based strictly upon variance. It is something that is ever-changing with every iteration. So how can an individual truly overcome it and walk the path that leads to outstanding superlative success? Surprisingly, the answer is quite simple. Luck, at the end of the day is nothing but variance; and how do you contradict variance; you contradict it with stability; you contradict it with consistency and you contradict it with diligent effort. Same is the story with contradicting the effects of bad luck as well.

An individual’s luck changes with every effort that he makes at success; hence the point to remember is that one should never stop trying. An ill bout of luck is nothing but a temporary setback for you. Don’t let it dampen your spirits; rise to the occasion and use the next opportunity to try your luck one more time. If it still fails, try another time. The law of probability dictates that the bad luck would in the end be balanced out by the good.

Hence the moral of this story is naught but this. Never stop trying and never ever quit. Success is but a function of time; with time and with persistent effort, even the worst of storms can be transformed into the most beautiful of sunsets…

Take Care and Be Well.
