The Secret of Good Luck

I read a certain article in a site called Kisah-Kisah Inspiratif (Inspiring Stories) yesterday. You might want to hear a bit about it, too.
It is said that Prof. Richard Wiseman from University of Hertfordshire (UK) had run some tests on two groups of individuals: those who seem to always be fortunate in their lives, and those whose lives are always filled with problems and bad lucks. The tests show that the lucky guys tend to handle and respond to circumstances in quite a different way compared to the unlucky ones.
Here's the conclusions Wiseman drew from the observation:

1. Lucky people are more open-minded toward opportunities.

They are more capable of sensing the arrival of new opportunities, respond positively to chances, and even create possibilities. How come?
It is because these individuals are more relaxed and open to new experiences. They show the tendency to create or enter new social circles and interact positively with new acquaintances. On the other hand, unlucky people tend to be more rigid and unwilling to explore new possibilities.

2. Lucky people rely more on intuition than logic.

Most decisions made by lucky individuals turn out to be based more on intuition than logic. They have sharper and more trained intuition than the unlucky group. This comes from active meditation and clear conscience. Although reason also has its share in discerning a matter, lucky people count more on their intuitive side rather than relying on complicated calculations.

3. Lucky people always wish for the best to come.

They always respond positively and optimistically to life. With this outlook, they tend to be more flexible in managing problems and tougher when disasters strike. The optimistic values they hold also help promoting good interactions with other people.

4. Lucky people alter bad circumstances into good.

They can always see the silver lining in every dark cloud. No matter how bad the situation, lucky people are able to recognize the positive value and turn it into the way to promote goodness. They possess the ability to quickly adapt to new circumstances -- though disastrous they may seem -- and gain benefits out of them. This keeps good luck in their side at all times!

Wiseman then concluded that every normal individual is actually able to gain good luck in life by following this very simple method: OPEN YOUR MIND, ENJOY YOUR LIFE!
