The most important thing I've learned is that you have to make your own luck. In the end it doesn't matter if you're born rich, poor, ugly, attractive, smart or stupid. You have to take the hand that was delt to you and play it the best you can. I've seen rich people end up homeless and poor people end up millionaires. Get out of the mentality that other people and your bad luck affect you because that's not the case. You alone hold your life in your hands. Only you can hold yourself back.
While it is true we must all take the hand that is delt to us, some of us are delt terrible hands and find ourselves in grim circumstances. This is where what you mention as luck has a part to play in what happens to us.
So I would amend your statement: Endeavour to make the best of your circumstances.
Authors write in the expectation of being read. Its most unlikely they would write on a desert island. Some hope to leave a legacy after death has silenced them forever. Words are our one way of getting at the future we will never see.
They enable the unlovely and the unattractive to enter the realm of desire. Fat unwholesome men, old ladies well past their prime, can in their imaginations be young studs or sex crazed beautiful young women.
But when the chips are down I would rather be popular between the sheets than between the pages.

'Poetry used to be an art form requiring talent and hard work. There were various conventions, such as meter or rhyme or diction, by which a poem could be distinguished from prose, but they have all been abandoned.
Nowadays, most poetry is ordinary work-a-day prose arranged in arbitrary "lines" and meaningless pseudostanzas, and all it takes to constitute a poem is the bald declaration that it is a poem.'
This speaks volumes for me but many modern poets would be very upset.
'Twas brillig and the slithy toves,
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
This is nonsense but wonderful and very famous poetry.
