An author and an English psychologist Richard Wiseman once performed a 10 year study on the science of luck.Once he gave an advertisement in the newspaper wanting the people who feel themselves as lucky to contact him.In his study the 400 participants are included.
In this experiment he asked the lucky and unlucky people to count the number of photographs inside the newspaper provided.It took around two minutes for the unlucky people on average,But the lucky people took few seconds.Why? In the second page of the paper there was a message said in a massive font "Stop counting there are 42 photographs in this newspaper.The lucky people ,it seems, were open to possibilities other than the ones they were searching for.
Then he conducted another experiment.He presented both lucky and unlucky people with a scenario.Imagine you are in the bank,at the time a robber came with a gun and shot you in your arm.Would you consider this event as lucky or unlucky? The unlucky people were likely to say that it was unlucky.They stated that the robber came there when he was in the bank and shot specifically him even there are many.
On other hand lucky people were likely to say that they were lucky.They stated that he was shot on the arm luckily and not shot on the head.
Richard concluded that lucky people always feel better about themselves and their lives.This helps them keep their expectations about the future very high and in this in turn increase the likelihood of them continuing to live a luck life.
Here's how you can improve you luck.
- Always be open to new opportunities and experiences.
- Always be relaxed and think about your opportunities.
- Expect good fortune.Lucky one know that everything will turn fine and keep going even at their failure.
Good luck for your lucky life.
