    Luck is a matter of preparation meeting opportunity I agree with the speaker. I consider luck to be the result of my own decisions and actions. The only forces at work are the decisions and actions taken by me or others around me. A lot of people make important decisions or attend important events according to lucky stars or lucky hour.

    Well‚ I personally think that there is no correlation between luck and success. For me‚ success refers to a long-term achievement which demands two key factors: education and career. A person who wants to be successful will choose to pursue a degree from college or university. One will have to take several exams‚ and it is doubtful that someone will be so lucky that knowing nothing‚ will pass all the exams‚ and score high marks. Therefore‚ in order to be successful‚ one should work hard and prepare

I think the teacher was sorry for not using a simple “Good luck!” Furthermore there are a lot of phrases that are used to wish good luck but have a bad literal meaning as “Break a leg”. Most people use them without considering their literal meaning and history. The Oxford

    Oct.4th How does “good luck” affect our daily life? It’s hard to confirm that luck really exists. However it’s obvious that nobody wants to be unlucky. Therefore‚ we do all kinds of stuff to make ourselves luckier. Some believes in astrology‚ others are fascinated in fengshui or crystal power.
