The "luck" argument isn't about comparing an idle slob with a hard-working person. It's about different outcomes for equally hard-working people due to luck - such as the luck of birth. Which is not just about parents, but about ones entire environment. How many little Einsteins where born in Ghana and nobody ever noticed?
- WalterBright 10y agoIt is NOT about how hard you work. It is about how smart you work - i.e. your choices on what to work on. Working hard on non-productive things is not going to get one anywhere. Everybody has choices on what to work on. Working hard waiting tables is not going to help create a hit album - working hard on guitar skills might. To be successful, you have to have a plan that makes sense, then work that plan, not something else.
