Luck Through Possibilities

11 replies

We use the word LUCK too loosely. We refer to luck as something that comes to us without putting any effort to get it.

The problem with that is that it is not everlasting, and it does not bring us the satisfaction we feel when we we get rewarded for our efforts.

It does not change our way of thinking and most of all, others cannot duplicate it.

The beauty of learning is teaching.

Would you rather have $100 dollars given to you or learning how to make $100 everyday?

If we changed the way we used the word luck, we would be lucky everyday. The possibilities to grow and learn are out there but we have to be looking for them.

    it make my day or week a lot more fun those rare time peopled just give me 100$..the normal amount people just give me maxes out at 10 . i am awesome though so ..

    Luck can be cultivated so your chances to get lucky breaks go up dramatically . the problem most people have is they are not position or ready to capitalize on most of their lucky breaks ..or they have no idea how to be where they can be prone to more luck..

    no one will knock on my door and hand me 20 50 or 100 .. well maybe i can pull that off in a few years but not now ..

    you create your own luck

      Totally true. We create (attract) our own luck (positive circumstances)

  • Hi Juliana

    I enjoyed your take on 'luck', it tells us that it isn't a mantra you could live by and that we must learn that our attitude creates our development.

    Luck is an illusion, you make a decision and that decision creates a knock-on effect.

    It's a way of taking all that hard work and effort you put into something, and throwing it all away because it was just good 'luck'..Nonsense! It's so counter-productive to our growth because we don't appreciate the work that went into it!

    I believe that we create our own 'local' reality based on our decisions, which are based on our attitudes.

    We must take notice that there's no magic involved, although sometimes the results can be magical in the sense of wonder and excitement rather than something that defies the physical laws of the universe.

    Hard-work, determination and a ruthless attitude to being the best you can be, that's what causes amazing things to happen in your life.

    We should stop objectifying our efforts, and start appreciating them!

    Stay motivated

    Luck is a way for someone to describe a positive manifestation which they never realized they were emotionally always in control over. To feel joy and bliss most often Attracts joyful, blissful (lucky) circumstances. P.S. I love the way you wrote "the beauty of learning is teaching." Wonderfully said!

    I love this sentence that you wrote - "If we changed the way we used the word luck, we would be lucky everyday." This is very inspiring!

    I completely agree. There is nothing more valuable than learning and enhancing your skills.

    Sorry, but the sugar snowstorm has to end!

    The secret to being lucky goes to the ones that can endure anything and keep going.

    If you give up, then you stop suffering, but also stay stuck; but if you keep going regardless of how painful it is, (to the point that everyone around you thinks that you are crazy) then a major breakthrough is possible.

    The formula for success is easy, just be a stubborn SOB!

    But a nice one, of course.

    If it popped out of nowhere it's because you envisioned it.
