What’s your idea about success? Some people say that beginners have all the luck, while others believe that success only with practice. In fact, I feel both of these statements (陈述) are not true all the time. Each is true in some ways not in others.
For example, I went to a drawing competition many years ago and surprisingly. As a prize, I got a film ticket to see “Titanic”. I was really because it was the first time I had taken part in any competition, Thinking that I might be lucky again, I joining in other art competitions, But the result was that I won again. I accepted the fact that the other people had a artistic ability than I did. Art was not something I was especially interested in and I had never practiced the different art skills. So, the I produced were not of a very high standard(水平).
These experiences taught me a lot. Though I might have been lucky , I also need to put in hard work. As we know, makes perfect. So I believe success builds on less luck and chance.
