There's no doubt about it, success is a mixture of luck AND attitude. But what really makes a successful person stand out from the crowd, I believe, is how well they recognise and take advantage of that luck. How they turn 'bad luck' around into an opportunity. And the quality of being able to take bad luck on the chin and rise above it, time and time again.  Successful people have that knack of zooming out to the bigger picture instead of falling into a heap each time they fail and feeling unluckier and more useless than everyone else around them.

Do you believe that success is caused by luck? Yes, I believe! Is it true that successful people has good attitude? Yes, absolutely! Success is created by luck; and luck is created by good attitude.

Having good or positive attitude is actually one of the major keys to success. Having a positive attitude turns bad situations around it, it finds solution in problems, and it seeks opportunities in crisis. Some people sees crisis as problems, some find opportunities in them. This is the difference between successful people and not successful people.

In the year of 2003, SARS hit Asia. People die of the sickness; people dare not go out of their houses. The usual busy shopping mall became a ghost mall; the airport was empty with only the people on duty. The economy of Asia was badly hit. However, still there are people who make lots of money from the crisis. At the same time, there are many people who complains about the economy, no customers etc. Good attitude turns the negative into positive, it just depends if you want to control your attitude.

Having a good attitude is just a matter of choice. You can change it within seconds. You can sit around to complain everything, or you can stop complaining and say, “Hey, what good can I make out of this situation?” When you start asking this question, your mind start to shift, your energy changes, your emotions turns for the better. Your mind will start looking for the good things and you find yourself feeling great. Successful people always feel great about themselves.....read more http://news.bytrade.com/info/860-Success-is-It-Luck-or-Attitude.htm

Hi

You are absolutely right. Success is a mixture of both- luck as well as attitude.

You can always make the most out of your time in gaining something but if you also got a little luck, you can have success all the time. Prepare yourself well so that when luck falls, you have the insight and knowledge to capitalize on it. It takes a good attitude to prepare yourself.

It's a mix of the two, no doubt. Some people even with the best attitude are so loaded down with obstacles that there is no opportunity. For example, a person suffering from severe, debilitating mental illness will never build a successful business. But a reasonable helping of luck coupled with a lot of drive and ability makes a lot better combination than no drive or ability struck with sudden tremendous good fortune. Ability and attitude can be relied on, while luck can't.
