"'Why did you throw away your lucky coin?' 'I don't need it anymore because luck comes from within.'" pg. 302, Slumdog Millionaire
Many people believe that luck is a supernatural force waiting for the right time to strike. However, is it possible to make your own luck? The main character in the novel "Slumdog Millionaire" proves that good fortune comes from within. Ram Mohammad Thomas begins as a young boy struck by poverty and unfortunate events. However, he knows that he has the power to make his situation positive.
This quote demonstrates what we lack in reality. So many people wait for luck to find them, and waste time hoping that it will strike. What people don't realize is that luck can be made. By following your intuition and doing the right things, you can create good fortune. I believe in following dreams. If you know the path you need to take in order to achieve a desired outcome, then follow it to great extents until it is yours. Depending on luck to take you to places is a mistake so many people make due to fear and uncertainty. But the reality is that you will never know until you reach the end. For me personally, I know the path I want to take in my life and will do everything I can until I see myself in that position. Ram, the main character in Slumdog Millionaire, also has a dream. His dream is to reach a better life. He does this by helping others even when he is in a traumatic situation himself. Ram never loses sight of happiness, and in the end is rewarded with love and fortune.
Luck can be made, you just have to find the strength to create it.
