How To Get Lucky

Would you like to get lucky? There are at least a dozen
ways. The simplest one is to just start looking for good
luck.

Have you ever noticed that when you buy a new car, you start
to see similar cars all over? They were there, of course,
but now you are seeing them, because your are looking. This
is how it is with luck too.

Start counting the ways you are lucky in life, and the first
thing you'll notice is that you feel better. A sense of
gratitude is good for your soul, even if you're not
religious.

Start watching for more good luck, and you'll notice that
you "get lucky" more often. This won't be your imagination.

Looking For Good Luck Creates It

I won't tell you God or the universe brings luck into your
life once there's grattitude in your heart. That's a nice
thought, but not my style. The less spiritual explanation is
that when you acknowledge luck, and look for more, you
create a certain frame of mind. It helps you take advantage
of opportunities you might otherwise not recognize.

A friend mentions a new business in town that is hiring, for
example. You might usually think nothing of it, but what if
you were watching for luck, and grateful for the good luck
you've seen in your life? You're more likely to check it
out. Months later you may be working for this company,
making more money and saying "Boy did I get lucky."

Have you heard the saying, "If life gives you lemons, make
lemonade?" This is the frame of mind of a lucky person.
Seeing how lucky you are, even in small ways, makes the
possibility of good luck more real to you. This gets you
watching. Then the watching gets you thinking, "How is this
lucky for me? What can I do with this situation? How can I
make lemonade from these lemons?"
