Lingo
the harder you work, the luckier you get
used to emphasize the value of hard work, suggesting that success is often the result of persistent effort, rather than luck or chance
The origin of the proverb "the harder you work, the luckier you get" is often attributed to the American entrepreneur and writer, Thomas Jefferson, although it is not definitively linked to a single source. The saying suggests that those who put in the most effort are more likely to create opportunities and be in the right position to experience what might appear as luck. It emphasizes that opportunities often arise from preparation, and luck tends to favor those who are hard-working and committed.
