Millionaire Shortcuts 12 of 42: Luck can be improved

in #economy7 years ago

You probably know someone who seem to have more luck than others, the dice often roll in their favor, they often happen to stumble upon rewarding situations. Life just seems to give them a little bit extra. In many cases luck is just being in the right place at the right time, but lucky people often seem to share some traits. What are these traits?

Chance is part of nature and it goes both ways, if you are born with good health and without any abnormalities you have already had a good roll of dice at the start of your life. The way nature handles the game of chance is to ensure progress with diversity. Animals, plants and humans are all built on this principle, you are the result of thousands of generations of random diversification. Everything in nature is created differently, nothing is the same, there are a myriad of small differences in nature, even between races, none of us humans are the same.

By creating all these differences and mixing them together in the next generation, nature increases the chance of creating winning combinations. While the bad combinations it produces fail and does not survive the brutal nature of the world, the winning combinations thrive and spawn improved offspring. This is not equally true for us humans as our knowledge has given us the opportunity to overcome many of the obstacles nature creates for us

So how does this go together with your luck? Diversity and attempts are some of the keys to luck, if you need to roll six on a dice your chances will improve if you roll more than one dice. Do not go around with the excuse “Oh, that person is always lucky, nothing good will ever happen to me”, because this will become the truth. If you never expose yourself to situations where something can happen, nothing will ever happen either.

If your friend met the man of her dreams and you cannot find anyone close the standard you expect, ask yourself “How can I put myself in situations where I can meet this man?”. Chances are slim meeting this man if you only spend your time at home entertaining yourself with media. You must actively look for opportunities when you want something. The partner of your dreams can be close, but it does not help if your head is in the clouds.

To improve luck is to diversify, take more chances, expose yourself and be focused, scatterbrains do not see opportunities. It is not about using your monthly payments to bet on black every month in the casino because some day you will win, it is about being where things happen and this is what people with luck do and most of them are even unaware. They are also often outgoing and positive in their environment, being nice and helpful gives others a positive impression. Even letting more people know you exist increases your chances, it can help your career, improve your chances of meeting important people, basically give you more throws with the dice.

Being a positive human being is far more than what many think, it can create a chain of events in your life that many cannot describe with other words than luck. Combine this with knowledge of chances, taking the right decisions and having faith in yourself you will learn that luck in many cases are just an illusion.
