Luck: Myth or Fact and ....

if it really exists, can you create more of it?

Experts think you can.

Luck! What's luck? How do you define luck? Is someone truly luckier than someone else. Is luck just a perception and not a reality?

These are valid questions that deserve an honest and real answer. Many experts tell us that luck is a "statement of mind". In other words, if you perceive yourself to be lucky then, according to experts you are.

To prove their findings, they performed a test consisting of placing a $5 bill on the doorstep of a restaurant. They asked ten individuals, half considered themselves lucky, the other half didn't, to go into the restaurant. The experts never mentioned a word about the money laying on the doorstep to any of the participants.

Interestingly, the five individuals that considered themselves to be lucky all noticed the money laying on the doorstep while the five people who considered themselves to be unlucky simply walked by it.

When questioned the five lucky people said that good things happen to them all the time. The unlucky ones however indicated they never have anything good happening to them.

Given this simple test, is it right to assume then that luck indeed is a matter of perception and if so, that anyone then can control the amount of luck one has?

The study further showed that people who consider themselves lucky go through life with much greater ease. They seem to be less stressed over outside influences and bounce back faster after a setback.

Lucky people, the scientists conclude, are indeed lucky because they see themselves as being lucky. The nature of a lucky person is almost always cheerful, optimistic, happy and confident.

Unlucky individuals on the other hand are most often depressed, negative, non-expecting and non-believing that they are just as lucky and that good things can happen to them as much as they happen to lucky people.

Luck then, is indeed a matter of statement of mind. As such you have the power to not only create your own luck but to make it abundant. You truly are as lucky or unlucky as you THINK you are....

The only separation between a lucky and unlucky person is the thoughts one has versus the other. A lucky person expects good things to happen and firmly believes good things will continue to happen.

An unlucky person expects "bad" things to happen and firmly believes "bad" things will continue to happen. The term "bad" is merely an indicator of anything negative.

For an unlucky person to become lucky the only requirement is to change the thought pattern and believe from "I am unlucky or I am not so lucky!" to "I am lucky!"

Over time, this positive affirmation manifests itself and materializes itself by means of bringing luck to the person with lucky thoughts.

Knowing this is an enormously powerful tool that allows anyone to create continuous luck in every aspect of life and with great abundance. Consistently apply the thought and the firm believe that you are lucky and lady luck will indeed reveal itself to you over and over again.

It explains why some people seem to have all the luck in the world while others have none. Or as in the famous words of Master Bruce Lee: "As you think, so you become!". Thus, think yourself lucky and you will be.
