Introduction

T he origin of the word luck is disputed, but one potential source was from the old Anglo-Saxon lccan ,
to catch. Some fortunate people manage to catch good luck at birth and are described as having been born lucky. For most people, though, luck appears to be an intangible, capricious force that offers favor for a while and then disappears for no apparent reason. Luck is thus usually said to be something that happens by coincidence, accident, or chance. That might be true, but it defines only part of what luck actually is.

The Random House Dictionary defines luck as the force that seems to operate for good or ill in a persons life, as in shaping circumstances, events, opportunities, etc. This definition is a highly positive one, as it shows that the most important factor in luck is you. You have the ability to use your own energy, or force, to shape your circumstances, events, opportunities, etc. to create your own good luck.

People have always tried to improve their luck. The ancient Romans prayed to the goddess Fortuna, who was usually pictured holding a cornucopia from which she showered luck on those who worshiped her. Our modern term Lady Luck refers to Fortuna. The Greek goddess Tyche provided good fortune and luck to her followers. The Hindu goddess Lakshmi provides beauty as well as good luck. There are many other examples of gods and goddesses who could be called upon to help improve luck. Throughout history, people have used omens, portents, lucky charms, and a variety of other methods to help them improve their lot in life.

Everyone has experienced good luck of one sort or another. Averting or surviving a bad accident, meeting someone who became a life partner, or securing the perfect job are all examples.

Many people today claim there is no such thing as luck, yet millions of people regularly buy lottery tickets despite knowing how slim the odds are of winning. Winning a lottery is a matter of chance rather than luck; the results are entirely out of our hands.

We cant do anything about chance, but we can increase our luck dramatically by focusing on the things we can control. These include positive energy, the law of attraction, and the power of intention.

Positive energy is much more than thinking happy thoughts; its an attitude or mindset that focuses on worthwhile, successful outcomes. People with positive energy know that even though life has both ups and downs, everything will work out in the long run.

The law of attraction says that you attract into your life anything that you focus on. The first step is to know what you want. Once youve decided on a goal and constantly feed it with positive energy, youll ultimately reap positive rewards. As this law is impartial and works on what your mind focuses on, its important to constantly think thoughts of happiness, abundance, and good luck. These thoughts go out into the universe and attract to you whatever it is you are focusing on.
