Why is it that some people seem to have all the luck?
So is the lead for a new perspective on being lucky by Dr. Mark Banschick published in Psychology Today.
Banschick argues that lucky people aren't lucky, they live life in a certain way that makes them appear lucky.
Want to be lucky? Here are the 8 habits:
1. Time: Lucky people don’t say; “Not today, there’s always another opportunity.” When opportunity knocks, answer!
2. Optimism: Lucky people engage opportunities with optimism and good will.
3. Openness: Lucky people are prepared to be in awe of the world. Breathe deep. Each moment is precious.
4. Generosity: Lucky people understand that sharing often makes for more good energy and more connections.
5. Flow: Lucky people are easy-going. They are ready for the unpredictable, the opposite of obsessive compulsive.
6. Skill: Lucky people develop skills…. Said pro golfer Gary Player, “The more I practice the luckier I get.” This is the opposite of flow: this is developing good habits.
7. Flow Again: Lucky people stay easy-going, even as they buckle-down and work on skills.
8. Going Home: Lucky people discern when to declare a bust or a wash.
