Hi this is Tutor Nick  P and this is Quotes 234 . The quote today is believed to be

from Thomas Jefferson. Remember Thomas Jefferson of course,  the third President

動名詞

of the United States and he's also famous for writing the Declaration of

Independence. So he was one of the founding fathers. Anyway,  let's continue.

Here's the quote. " I'm a greater believer in luck and I find the harder I work the

more I have of it. " Okay.  It's a good quote.  However,  let's continue here.

This quote  has often been credited to Thomas Jefferson but some now question

it because they cannot confirm it in any of his known writings , but still

maybe he did say it. Maybe somebody heard it,  but they you know,  they can't pinpoint

it. But it still believed that this one originally came from him. Anyway let's

continue. Here we say there is,  there's also quote by Coleman Cox who's also

famous for a number of quotes,  from his book titled  "Listen to This" which is

almost the same as the one believed originally from Thomas Jefferson." I am a.

"I am a great believer in luck the harder I work the more I seem to have of it "

Okay. Let's continue. No matter who first you know,  said this quote or who first

wrote this quote,  there is much truth to it. It basically means you make your own

luck. Yeah.  Luck doesn't just appear out of air.

You make it by working hard. You will accomplish more and people will notice

this. This of course could lead to more job offers or more opportunities. Thus,

you make your own luck in this way. Many people believe,  you know... not many

believe... many people sit around wishing luck will come to  them. Oh why can't I be

lucky > Why can't that just happen to me ? Why doesn't it just come to me ? Or

I don't know , maybe you put all your faith in buying a lottery

ticket or something like that.  People sit around wishing luck we'll

just come their way. That's usually not how it happens. By working hard you

attract opportunities and the opportunity , and the opportunities and

with opportunities comes luck basically.  Yeah It's kind of related to the idea of

karma. A little bit too you know,  with karma when you do good things,  good

things come back to you. When you do bad things,  bad things come back to you. Well

when you work hard you know it sometimes could attract luck to you. So that's kind

of what these quotes mean. That's what they're letting you know. By these quotes.

Don't just sit around waiting for the luck to just appear out of nowhere,  and

just come your way. By working hard you make it , you create your own luck. Anyway, I

hope you got it. I hope it's clear. hank you for your time. Bye-bye
