Friends, what do you think about Summly the mobile app developed by a British teenager. Yahoo! has decided to buy it for millions of dollars. Do you think it is an example of hard work or just a stroke of luck for Nick - the app developer.
I would say this is a result of hard work and not mere luck.
Why I am asking this question is because there are a lot of people who are hardworking. But not all get so much success and money.
There is no direct corelation between work and reward. All work may not be equally rewarded. In view of uncertainty, nothing is certain. But dedicated work is must if you want reward, which is of course not certain. There is element of chance but this depends on work. Chance will never favor an inactive and lethargic person.
