Thinking About Success

Hardwork
Skill
Opportunity
Luck

Luck is the least important because you never know how its going to fall. You can't make a plan around luck, it just happens. After luck comes opportunity. Opportunities are how people start when looking for success. You can't achieve it in the end unless you have amazing opportunities come up that allow you to, and sometimes these opportunities come by luck. Next is skill. When the opportunities come along, if you don't have the skill required to participate effectively in them then they might as well have not come along to begin with. If you can't properly use the opportunities then you're nowhere closer to achieving success then you were before them. Whereas, with the ability to effectively use the opportunities to your advantage, success will come quicker. Last comes hardwork. Without hardwork none of the skill, opportunity, or luck matters. If you don't put in the effort to makes things happen they won't. Hardwork is required for the skill to be gained. Hardwork is required for the opportunities to be completed. And hardwork is often required for luck to be in your favor. Therefore, my order of these words is luck, opportunity, skill, hardwork.
