September 11 – Counting on a little luck? Do you feel you have done all that you can do, and now all you need is a little luck to see it through? Are you hedging your future on wishing for the best? Have you realized some “luck” from past experiences and are counting on that magic to happen again?
Chances are, the “luck” you have experienced in the past and are hoping for again was more intentionally realized from your efforts than you think. There are three types of ways you can empower luck, according to author, Dr. James Austin. They are: 1) taking action, 2) being fully aware, and 3) embracing your uniqueness.
Take an MM&I Moment to awaken your ability to empower luck in your favor. What action have you taken, and what action can still be taken to move your desires forward? Are you so focused on one way of approaching your goal, that you may be closing your mind and eyes off to opportunities that are swirling all around you? How aware and present are you in seeing options, opportunities, and alternative ways? Are you remaining optimistic, not allowing doubt to cause you to hesitate on certain actions you could be taking? Are you leveraging what is most unique in your abilities to stand out and be preferred in what you do? Once you realize the power you have within, your luck becomes an everyday blessing.
Wide Awake Quote of the Week
“Build your character in a way that luck becomes deterministic.” – Dr. James Austin
Yours in dreaming WIDE awake,
P.S. The four-leaf clover in the inset picture is one I found in my front yard. I have a journal pressed full of four-leaf clovers. It’s proof that luck is all around us … it’s all around you. Be curious. Be optimistic. Be intentional.
