Some people have all the luck.
Or at least, that's how it seems.
You know who they are.
They're the ones who buy just one ticket in the raffle and walk off with first prize.
Or they're always winning more on the lottery than they spend on tickets.
Or they keep getting raises or promotions at work.
The lucky people! And you? You could buy every ticket in the lottery and still not get the winning number.
Or at least that's the way it seems.
Try these helpful tips to increase your luck: 1.
Change the way you think Instead of saying to yourself "I'll never win that" or whatever, change the self-talk so that it's at least neutral and ideally positive.
You may need to make this change gradually over a few weeks, starting with (for instance) "Well, someone's got to win it and you, never know, there's a chance it will be me".
2.
Stop being so miserable! You know I'm right.
You mope around.
You growl your "hello" at people, if you acknowledge them at all.
Cheer up a bit.
Fake it if necessary but smiling is contagious, so even if your smile is forced at first, other people will smile back and before you know it, you'll maybe even grin for a second or two.
3.
Read out some positive affirmations Stick them on your bathroom mirror so you see them first thing in the morning and last thing at night, when you clean your teeth.
Read out some positive affirmations every day.
Gradually, you'll notice yourself becoming a more positive - and therefore lucky - person.
