Success depends on ??

I think it can be either one, or both. It is different for everyone. Some people are simply fortunate and they end up in the right place at the right time. Some people are born into success. They are born into wealthy families with established businesses. Some people work hard to achieve success and never give up until they get there. Some people become successful with a lot of luck. It is different for everyone.

From my personal experience, I rate this as 80:20. 80% our efforts and 20% our fate are responsible for success. Only depending upon fate is not suggestive. we must make effort by heart to achieve our task. If we do not make efforts for anything, how we can get that one. It is said "God helps those, who helps himself" So we will have to step forward first then automatically the path will be easy. Having positive attitude we can achieve many major things which seem others impossible. I have seen miserable people sitting only on fate and making no efforts.
