Though we pass through many difficulties in life, we should not give up because Life is not about what you couldn’t do so far, it’s about what you can still do so NEVER GIVE UP!

Do we call it good luck, hard work or something else?

Re: Famous people

It's certainly a mystery in life, some people work hard all their lives and accomplish averagely, while other people with their struggles you would think they would do poorly but they excel above and beyond. Maybe it is a matter of faith and their ability to look into the future and see them self as being better/ deserving better and that leads them to achieve?

Re: Famous people

Some people have a really good luck that is what i think!
