you added some extra words such as "luck makes him lazy and depend on others". Laziness and self-dependence have not been mentioned in original paragraph.
To your this point let me quote passage
Luck lies in bed and wishes the postman would bring him news of a legacy; labour turns out at six and with busy pen and ringing hammer lays the foundation of a competence.
The highlighted line indicates that beliver of luck does not want to do anything himself and relies on others.
This is my opinion. You can give your own further. And, thanks for your analysis.
1-Actually, we have to follow rules. Rules are important to get golden marks.
2-To count the word you need to follow same rule as MS-Word does. Precis must be 1/3. 1-2 words concession is allowed but depends on length of Paragraphs. For paragraphs having more than 200 words 5 words concession is allowed.
3- "Luck lies in bed and wishes the postman would bring him news of a legacy". Author is trying to say that Luck lies in dreams that someone tell him good news. It does not means Laziness.
Hope this will help you.
