If you had to ask me how to define luck, I would say luck is made up of opportunity and preparation.
Some people blame genetics, others blame lack of money and million other things why they are not succeeding in getting what they want. The truth is: none of us are more or less lucky than anyone else. It all depends how we are prepared to see opportunities.
Let’s take a step further to see what opportunities are.
A while ago a friend told me that she is buying a particular car. All of a sudden while driving through the streets I started noticing all the similar cars she told me about. Why?? Because my mind was prepared to notice. Same thing is for opportunities, they are there but if you are not prepared to notice them you will not see them and think they don’t exist for you.
If you are capable to notice two opportunities then you think only those two options exist for you. If you open up to be prepared to other opportunities then you are unstoppable.
The next step you might be asking yourself now is, how to be prepared. Here are a few tips:
Be open to meet up new people
Meeting new people will help you to view other lifestyles from which you can learn.
Don’t be judgemental
Do not judge others when you see they are different from you. Every life path has its beauty. See the beauty in different views of life.
Read
Always take some time to read even if it is a small newspaper article. It will help you keep your mind active.
Exercise regularly
Find some time for yourself to move. Our bodies need the endorphins released by exercising. This will help you look at life in a positive way.
Say something nice to yourself every single day
Complement yourself every day. Your body needs your mind approval, it keep your physical and mental health in harmony.
Do not compare yourself to others
Everyone is different, although you might be inspired by others, do not make their journey yours to follow. We are all different and that’s what makes us beautiful.
Luck is only needed when you play bingo or take a lottery ticket. The day to day life is what we believe we can achieve and what is possible for us to accomplish.
No dream is too big if you are prepared to work for it.
