How to get lucky ..

Read it somewhere, not sure where ...

Assume fate is on your side: Perceive life's setback as business as usual. Believe you are fortunate and you will exhibit behaviour that makes people more responsive.


Get an emotinal grip: Luck limiting emotions, shyness anger and resentment doesn't help. Higher self esteem and be more extroverted.



Keep your mind open to opportunity: Encounters with people, be confident that positive outcomes will result from these encounters.



Think of the world as yours: You won't imporve your luck by sitting at home. Embrace random events that happen to you.



Keep envy in check: Stop comparing your life with lives of others. What looks ideal from outside in reality may not be ideal for you. Stay focussed on your own goals and dreams.


Think like a connector: More people you know, more likeable you are, better are the odds of becoming lucky.



Find an upside to everything: Have a positive view of the past and optimistic view of the present. Remember more of good things that happened, block out bad. When something bad happens, compare the event with the worst that could have happend and conclude that you came out ahead.
