Luck has a lot more to do with your outlook
than it does with rabbit’s feet or random chance. And your outlook is something
truly under your control!
Scientist Richard
Wiseman has devoted much of his career to studying lucky versus unlucky
people. Guess what?
Jessica
Stillman, reporting on Wiseman’s research for CBS’s Moneywatch stated that:
“Lucky people had a particular outlook and way of operating in the world that
maximized the chances of happy coincidences occurring…[among which] Lucky people are skilled at creating, noticing and
acting upon chance opportunities. They do this in various ways, including
networking, adopting a relaxed attitude to life and by being open to new
experiences.”
How about that? When it comes to
your job, creating, noticing and acting upon those chance opportunities that
might draw the positive attention of others than your horrible Boss--like
managers and VPs who could mentor or promote you--could be a way to get going
in your career, regardless of, well, you know who!
