2.2 - Success Factors

Opportunity
Luck
Hard Work
Skill
While all four of these factors are invaluable to achieving economic success opportunity is by far the most  important. This is because all three of the other factors are useless without opportunity.

The more opportunity you have for success the more likely you are to achieve it. Luck reaches the same end but without the ability to control how many chances you have.

However, Hard work is more valuable than skill for 2 reasons: without any hard work skill limits itself and, more importantly, hard work can generate opportunity which make hard work far more valuable.
