Writing Assignment 2-The Key to Success: Hard Work or Luck?

Date:2006/3/23
Grade: 88

I think hard work is more important to success than luck. My personal story can prove the truth. A few years ago, I attended an entrance examination for the EMBA program of Ming-Chuan University. After I pass the first test, I had to attend the second test-an interview. None my family knew that i had a plan to go t school again. Before the interview day, my mother told me, she took my picture to a fortune-teller and the fortune-teller said i would get a master's degree. I was so happy that I thought I would pass the entrance examination for the EMBA program by luck. So I didn't spend much time to prepare for the interview. Unfortunately, I was only on the waiting list for admission to the school in the end. When I learned this life lesson, I didn't believe in fortune-tellers and luck anymore. I realized that if we want to succeed, we should work hard and no hoped to a vain hope.
