There's a big difference between luck and success. Luck can be seen also as fortune; an unplanned event that can change a man's status, condition, situation or entire life as the case may be.

Mohamed Ali didn't get lucky,
Thomas Edison didn't get lucky,
Jeff Bezos didn't get lucky,
Roosevelt didn't get lucky,
And the list continues...

Success comes in due course, after so much has been put in place; idea, planning, strategy, resources, labour, determination, focus, persistence etc.

Typically, success mostly comes with so much dignity after a few failures had already set in. Disappointments, discouragements and the likes usually forerun success.

In all, for one to be successful, there must be intentional planning and effective working with a high sense of determination and perseverance. Only with these and many more can real success be achieved.
