Luck

Luck refers to the concept of chance or fortune, often seen as a force that brings about positive or negative outcomes in life. It is commonly associated with events that happen by coincidence, randomness, or fate rather than through deliberate planning or effort. People often attribute their successes or failures to luck, believing that external factors beyond their control can significantly influence their experiences and opportunities. Luck can manifest in various forms, such as good fortune, which brings favorable circumstances, and bad luck, which leads to adverse situations. The perception of luck varies among cultures and individuals, with some viewing it as a vital aspect of life while others believe hard work and preparation are more determinative of success. In various contexts, luck is often personified or treated as a tangible entity, leading to rituals or beliefs aimed at attracting good luck or warding off bad luck.
