Can I Make Myself Lucky?
If you talk to anyone who is where they want to be today, someone somewhere along the way has told them in a cynical tone, "You just got lucky."
If you study these "lucky" people (it has been done) you'll find that most of them don't really believe in luck as many of us see it. They usually believe they can make their own "luck," or better, create their own lives. Just like it is stated in "The Science of Getting Rich," and by Robert Kiyosaki, it is pretty much a fact that you can make yourself lucky!
Another literal example can be found in the book by Richard Wiseman called "The Luck Factor." Inside, Wiseman (ironic name!) highlights four strategies of "lucky" people, and you'll find these strategies strewn throughout the web and literature when searching about creating your own luck. Here they are, quoted, for your perusing pleasure:
1. "Lucky people create, notice and act upon the chance opportunities in their life."
2. "Lucky people make successful decisions by using their intuition and gut feelings."
3. "Lucky people's expectations about the future help them fulfil their dreams and ambitions."
4. "Lucky people are able to transform their bad luck into good fortune."
NOW, GO MAKE YOURSELF LUCKY!

Happy New Year
Can't you just tell this is going to be a great year already!? I can.
I wish everyone a prosperous, generous, healthy, loving, fantastic 2010!
"Patience is not about sitting around being lazy, or just remaining calm under pressure - it is the act of giving yourself enough time in every situation to look past the apparent and see the real truth."
- Me
Love is the ultimate expression of God and the quickest way to everything good!
