Does everything seem to go you way? Have you been the beneficiary of years of good fortune and have you always been in the right place at the right time?
Well, good you for! That's just grand. But for a lot of us, kismet is not part of either our business plan or our life's direction. We don't rely on the fates to blow the winds of providence in our direction.
Rather, we roll up our sleeves, get to work, and take matters into our own hands. Why would we sit idly by and wait for something good to happen when we can simply grab the bull by the horns and take charge of our own destinies.
Most states sell dreams every day. They offer lottery tickets with promises of instant financial gratification. A few people have won millions of dollars, it's true, but millions have won a few dollars, and even millions more have lost a significant amount of money.
If you really feel like the lottery is the way to go, try this simple test. Go to the Georgia Lottery Winning Numbers search page, select Mega Millions and enter your regular numbers. You will be shocked at how many times NO numbers match, and how few times even ONE number matches, ever more rarely TWO numbers match. It's remarkable to actually check the odds versus actual history, and doing this made me swear off the game forever!
So go ahead and leave for future to chance. As for me, I guess I'll just get back to work!
