Feeling Lucky? Photo by Michael Thornton
Luck can be defended as a force that makes things happen. We can be that force and make things happen if we prepare ourselves for opportunities by doing our research and practice through role modeling; Pay attention to people, events and your surroundings; Follow our gut instincts; and Be engaged with folks while not being afraid to take risks. Finally, expect positive results.

I don't know about you, but I'm already feeling lucky ♣♣ ...

Real estate is definitely a game of luck at times...my philosophy is to work hard and good things will happen, eventually.  The quote made me snort!

Michael, enjoyable post as always.  This Irish girl is all about believing in luck but I think you've made a great point by stating, "things happen if we prepare ourselves for opportunities."  Have an awesome Monday.

Good things come to those who work hard. A lot of times we create our own luck just by working hard.

i feel lucky every day I get up.

With so many in the world be happy for what you have, especially if your lucky enough to have a lot more than others.

Like a roof over your head

Enjoy the day

It's who you know, ability and timing.  When all three coalesce at the same time your lucky day is inevitable.
