I think it's a bit of both. Some people are fortunate enough to miss out on some fairly big hardships in life, and others can work hard in one way or another to make things happen in a way that they want. Of course, I think the latter group of people also fail sometimes, but it's not noticeable because they get keep getting back on the metaphorical horse and trying again until they get the result they want.
I don't think people are cursed as such, though there are some people in my own family who would argue with me on that point. Shit happens, and that's all there is to it sometimes, but other times I think people ignore the ways in which they are responsible for their own misfortune. I've known far too many people who choose to play the victim card and blame others for their mistakes instead of turning that pointed finger back at themsevles - myself included. It's all in the intepretation.
