Creating a Lucky Personality

by Peter Ragnar

Are you lucky? Well of course you are! How else would this newsletter find you? As a lucky person, you attract people, circumstances. and resources to you that make your dreams come true! Many people falsely believe that success is luck without realizing that success is actually the applied science of luck. There are some specific personality traits that lucky people tend to express. While not every lucky person exhibits all of these personality traits, and everyone has a mixed bag of them, I would encourage you to develop as many of them as you can. Think of this as your "Luck Makeover".


Lucky Personality Traits...Having A Sense of Humor

Lucky people don't take themselves too seriously. Humorous people see the world differently from non-humorous people, and they tend to have better luck precisely because of their different viewpoint. They don't allow trivial events to tense them up. Tension blinds us to opportunity. A sense of personal playfulness is a ticket to good fortune.


Positive Expectation

A feeling of optimism is a prerequisite for good fortune. I believe your outer world is the material manifestation of your inner world, a reflection of your honest internal expectations. Expectations form attitudes, which determine behaviors and thus choices. Right choices result in luck.


The Attitude of Gratitude

Gratitude is a way of sincerely saying "thank you" for your good fortune. As you look for the good things in life, you'll find them; as you find them, you'll realize you are blessed by them. Learning to say "thank you" is a way of attracting good luck.


Generosity

The most successful people I know are the most generous. Generosity is a major component of becoming lucky because helping other people get what they want is the premise upon which all success rests.


A Relaxed Sense of Urgency

There is an inner sense of eagerness that has a certain spontaneous quality. Lucky people have a hearty willingness and promptness to act on opportunity. Responding to an opportunity is called luck!


Observant

Naturally, before you can act, you must be able to see. If you are mentally asleep, you'll be blind to the countless opportunities passing you each day. Many people have stopped seeing, looking, or observing- they wait for someone else to point out opportunities to them. Of course, by then it's too late- some lucky observant soul has beaten them to the prize.


Immune to Rejection

The luckiest people I know are unaffected by the past and immune to rejection. There are always some disenfranchised souls who will be ready to rain on your parade, if you let them; fearful little creatures whose only joy in life is tearing others down and ripping up their dreams. All courageous and lucky souls must deal with the people in the dark who never venture beyond the fence of chance. They know that good fortune will smile as long as they go forward into the light of luminous possibilities.I could tell you so many stories of incredible luck that it would fill volumes.

The point is this: Luck creates Luck. When you start winning, you will continue winning until you doubt the process.Good luck to you!

May you always be a winner!

Peter

Being lucky, is believing you're lucky. It's all in the mind.

Lindaland is like college. People make an imprint and leave, while others stay on and teach or become professional students. It's always been this way.

Don't forget the multiple personalities!
I would say this forum is different from the rest, less like a college, more like a home.

The longer a species lives the slower it moves. Elephants are a lot slower than gnats.I think that the forum is moving at the right pace for its subject matter.

Yes indeed, Emeraldopal, we are more efficient, therefore we don't flap about and waste energy. I am still reading your very interesting immortality thread.
