Miracle, Luckiness, or?

Few days ago, a miracle befell on me. At the last post where I said I worried about getting D or E for the most important subject for my major, well, real unexpectedly, turned out to be the best. Today, the lecturer commented that only a few people managed to get an A and I was the highest (he mentioned the score, not my name). Thanks God! It immediately lifted my mood. Hahaha...
I am contented, but it is not enough. I mean, it's not that I'm ungrateful, just feel a bit not too satisfied, as I didn't study even a bit. I got this A effortlessly. I knew that I could have done better. Well, at least, considered my 'hard work' of dragging myself to the campus when I was so sick to take the test paid off then. :p
I am really grateful. Well, this is not the first time. But, this is the first time that I feel so thankful. I know that I cannot keep counting on 'luckiness' to survive (or improve). Must work harder! Hard working people attract luckiness the most. And keep on praying. :)
Talking about luckiness, many people think that I am lucky for having the brain and multi-talented, so I don't need to work as hard. This is absolutely wrong. Talents and brain need to be polished, or it'll stay average as hard work beats talent. Trust me! Yes, I have the brain and I am multi-talented, but I am lazy (is improving though, very slowly). I actually can do faaaaaarrrrrrr more better than this. This is nothing. Compared to those who works hard polishing their potentials, mine is real nothing like dust. My laziness is the problem that kept me for being average. Some people will kill me for making myself sounds so average. Well, I really am just average, folks. No kidding!
Many people would kill to be in my place, yet here I am, keeping my diamond talents left in the dust. This is why I think I am such a failure and average, or under-average, and perhaps, some people dislike me for wasting my talents. Some even commented that they don't like people who get high grades effortlessly without trying. Instead of envying or disliking people like me, why don't you just focus on making the most of what you have? :)
