What is Your Take On Luck?

So, you think you only have bad luck?

Let’s look at what we think about the subject of what we popularly call luck.

How do you go about getting good luck and lots of it?

How do you bring it into your life, so you are never without it and you get it working for you?

Are there any Batman Fans out there?

In the movie Batman: The Dark Knight Harvey Dent uses a coin that has heads on both sides. It’s his way of telling the world that he makes his own luck. That’s one way of telling the universe how things should be eh?

A lot of people think luck doesn’t actually exist. That you have no influence on things and that stuff just happens.

But I’m here to tell you it most definitely does exist.

There is no real mystery to it when you actually stop and think about it. How to you actually find a way though to make it work in your favour.

That’s easy!

Simply by following probably the most well-known (and ignored) tried-and-tested formula known to man:

Preparation + Opportunity = Luck

The truth is most successful people are almost always accused of being lucky by their friends, families, colleagues and anyone else. They say things like he was in the right place at the right time or he/she is just a lucky blighter and always comes out smelling of roses. However, those very same people never see the hard work those so called lucky people put into their work. The thousands of painful failures or any of the other struggles that go into the making of success.

All those envious people see is an apparent lucky overnight success story that has no explanation to them and so they call it luck.

In a way I guess they are actually right in what they say. These people are in fact ‘lucky’.

But, it’s not a totally random form of luck that knows no laws.

It really amounts to a form of controlled luck if ‘luck’ is what you want to call it.

It simply about being smart enough, working hard enough and diligent enough to prepare themselves for the tasks to the best of their ability to put themselves in the path of opportunity.

And so it is with you! Yes You!

Want to be great at what you do? At anything?

Then apply the formula to your life, your work, your dream.  Remember Preparation + Opportunity = Luck

Become great at what you do. Become the best you can be.

Most importantly, make sure you keep your eyes open for opportunity and remember nothing will actually happen without taking ACTION.
