Have you felt haunted by bad luck lately? Would you like to know the secret that leads to luck? It's already in your possession, it's you. The secret to increasing luck lies in a different perspective, in self-confidence and leaning towards optimism. It is not about winning large amounts of money, but about making the most of the many blessings that already surround you. Here are some useful tips to learn how to effectively increase your luck.
Steps
Step 1. Get ready
Luck comes when preparation meets opportunity said Seneca, playwright, philosopher and politician of ancient Rome, 5 BC - 65 AD. If you have the basics to do this, you will be able to take advantage of the opportunities encountered on your path. Be proactive.
Step 2. Network
Lucky people know people, lots of people. You don't have to be friends with just anyone, but be open to meeting new people who matter. Practice and when you attend an event learn to talk to strangers. Listen to them carefully whenever you engage in a conversation, you will always have something to learn and you will show your appreciation for their words. Your attitude could translate into opportunity; the greater the number of people you know, and the greater the interest shown in them, the higher the chances of meeting the right person at the right time, ready to offer you an opportunity that you will want to grab.
Step 3. Follow your instincts
That thin inner voice is often right, and lucky people know it. In the same way you will notice when common sense or reason will try to prevail over the lucky presentiment. When this happens, take a moment to reflect privately. Evaluate whether the voice you hear comes from your own inner self or from the expectations of others, such as a partner, superior or friend?
Step 4. Choose lightness
Anxiety and worry are enemies of luck. Both lead to the same "Risk Aversity" and "Renounce Temptation!" You will hardly be able to run into luck if you are too busy hiding. When opportunities arise, it is essential to be able to recognize them in order to grasp them. A lucky person believes that now is as important as tomorrow, and much more than yesterday. Don't let the ghosts of failure hold you back, treat them as what they are, experiences to learn from. Do what you can to better enjoy your present moment, tomorrow will have to do nothing but continue the path you have taken!
Step 5. Be open to new opportunities
The more open you are to new ideas and new ways of acting, the greater your chances of encountering luck. Lucky people do not plod methodically along a safe and secure path; lucky people choose the path less traveled and encounter all kinds of fabulous opportunities along the way. Take your first step now… try something you've never felt before, for example something you've convinced yourself you hate or someone else has advised you to do. Be brave.
Step 6. Be optimistic
Expect the best. Yes, each of us can do it, so why not give it a try? It is not about living in the world of fairy tales. It's about being positive and creating the successes and results we most want. Lucky people are optimistic and expect the best that can happen. Have you ever heard the mantra "only good things will happen to me"? Most likely not, because most of us tend to complain saying why does it all happen to me ?! Immediately stop doing this and start expecting the best. Rather than choosing to wallow in bad luck by railing against what is not going as it should, look for a life lesson in experiences and identify new solutions that have emerged from bad circumstances. Dwelling on the horrific events in your life you will give them tremendous power, stifling your growth and trampling your luck. When you look at the world from this perspective, your negative mindset will be ready to boycott even the clearest call of luck.
Step 7. Never stop learning
In accordance with always remaining open to new opportunities. The unfortunate people think that their learning path ends with school, the lucky ones realize that it was only the beginning and that the whole life is one big and endless university. Assimilate it as much as you can, even those subjects that you find complex, boring or uncomfortable. They will make your life a lot more exciting and help you better understand people. Set yourself the goal of expanding your number of perspectives, it will be easier for you to be able to forgive people and understand their point of view. You will learn to recognize the motives of others and to treat each other with respect.
Advice
- Be humble. Luck prefers humility; this does not mean that you will have to dedicate your life to others by pushing them to seek their own fortune, but that you will not have to shout out your good luck so as not to push it away from you. Stay away from arrogance and choose balance and respect so as not to stop learning.
- Make your fortune using techniques such as visualization and goal achievement. Both will help you stay centered and focused on the things you want to achieve.
- Luck is created, it is not found. Often, when luck is simply stumbled upon, one is not ready to take full advantage of it. Believe in yourself and your skills, and follow the steps analyzed in the article, you will be in an ideal position to take advantage of the lucky breaks.
- Use your subconscious mind. You will need to have an overall picture of the success you want. Spin it in your mind for 3 seconds, then let it go. If your intention is strong enough, you will get what you want.
- Use affirmations daily. "I'm going to have a lucky day today." "Today luck will smile at me." "Helping others get lucky today will increase my own luck."
