How to make Luck by Stever Robbins:
- “Luck is the opportunity you aren’t expecting. If you want lots of chance opportunities, you have to plan to make them happen.”
- “It’s really easy to get into a routine, day after day. The good news of routines is that they don’t take much thought. The bad news is that the same things happen day after day after day. They’re…routine.”
- “Attract luck by being open to new experiences”
- “Just being open to new experiences isn’t enough, however. You need to look around enough to notice those opportunities.”
- “If you expect to be lucky, you’ll be much more apt to discover opportunity knocking at your door. Expect luck. Even if it’s unrealistic, expect it anyway. “
- “Also, expect things to work out. Then, when things go wrong, you’ll keep pushing through. Because when you expect things to work out, you’ll surely think any setbacks are just temporary.”
- "So when you have bad luck, try to find the positive side. If there is no positive side, force it.
- "And remember that sometimes, lemonade takes more than lemons. It also needs water and sugar.
- "If turning your bad luck to good means rustling up extra resources, get hopping and turn that cloud into a silver lining. Then take steps to prevent more bad luck in the future."
- "It’s better to be lucky than skillful."
