I don't think I have any good explanation for the causality. Some people only need their intelligence. Other people need hard work. You can't control some fact

I don't think I have any good explanation for the causality. Some people only need their intelligence. Other people need hard work.
You can't control some factors, but you can control others. I think we should focus on the later, as they're more actionable.
- dpark 5y agoAlmost sounds like you’re saying it’s mostly just luck…
- csdvrx 5y agoAnd it seems you want to make me say it's just luck, so you can feel good about yourself. Maybe that's because the opposite would imply some didn't get what they deserved? Most people want to impose human values like fairness on something like life, that isn't even human but mostly random. So think whatever you want.
- dpark 5y agoYou entered the conversation to dispute my assertion that it’s mostly luck and you landed in a place where you are unable to identify a relevant element that isn’t luck. Maybe you should reflect a bit here. I engaged with you in good faith and you end the conversation by essentially attacking my ego because your point fell apart.
