It's a combination of how much efforts you put in, how much you're working on a daily basis on your goals and it also has to do with a bit of luck. It's difficult but you've to be very patient. The main thing is perseverance.

Insight: Success feels like it should follow a formula—work hard, get results. But real life is messier than that. Anupriya Goenka is pointing at something we all sense but rarely admit: effort alone isn't enough, and that's actually okay. You can do everything right and still face timing that isn't in your control. A job doesn't open up when you're ready. Your break comes three years later instead of one. The luck piece isn't an excuse—it's permission to stop blaming yourself for things outside your reach. What makes her insight different is where she puts the weight. She doesn't say "work hard and luck will follow." She says put in daily work, accept the luck element, and then anchors everything in perseverance. That word matters. Perseverance isn't grinding yourself into dust with sheer willpower. It's the ability to keep showing up on a regular Tuesday when nothing feels like it's happening, when you can't see the progress, when luck seems to favor everyone but you. It's the one thing entirely in your control, which paradoxically makes it the most powerful.
