Some individuals believe that external circumstances are the main things for an achievement whereas other people think that personal effort or being an hardworking person is the key for success and I know both factors have an impact on being successful so in my opinion, both ideas have their own points and both are persuading in achieving success.
Firstly, both hardwork and labour are the key things for being more successful within one’s life. Working hard makes a person grow at a steady rate and this constant rate helps people to thrive in their life. It is because what makes people happy and growing is their unmistakable improvement throughout their laborious journey and this helps them to be motivated and be more successful. Whereas, I did not say hardwork makes someone successful instead it makes someone more successful. Personal effort could help people to improve themselves more but it does not always lead to success because it is more about accessing to the resources and having opportunities to study better so hardwork can make someone grow more but it is not always the initial key that leads to success.
Secondly, external circumstances are mainly the key for making someone successful as it provides better opportunities and ease. For example borning into a wealthy family like how Donald Trump did can make someone successful. As external circumstances such as; social connections, wealthy backgrounds and fame are so important Trump had all of them and currently he is the famous billionaire president of the USA. On the other hand, it is not always the case again as it was not in the personal effort situation. Because, all of that external opportunities could be used for unnecessary things or abused and leading someone to nothing but to a failure.
As a result, both hardwork and external factors play a huge role in achieving success and both criterias have an impact on each other meaning that it is essential to work hard and have some external opportunities.
