HAVE YOUR SAY — Do you believe in luck?

Some people believe success comes from being in the right place at the right time, while others credit hard work, faith and wise choices. Do you think luck plays a role in life, or do we create our own opportunities? Yes or no?

“Yes, I believe luck can influence our lives, although it is not the only reason people succeed. Sometimes, being in the right place, meeting the right person or receiving an unexpected opportunity can change everything.”

Pedro Coelho, Rustenburg

“Yes. I have experienced several situations in which luck seemed to save me. Not everyone is equally fortunate, but I believe that having a positive outlook can invite more good opportunities into your life.”

Kagiso Hlabathi, Rustenburg
