Make Your Own Luck

As you know from the presentation, the article presented in class was pretaining to the creation of what we call commonly as "luck."

Do you as a psychology student believe that luck can be created by the methods and techniques discussed in class, or that luck is some sort of supernatural force that happens by chance to humans? Why?

I think luck is a result from what you do. I think it is true that when you're more positive good things do come your way. Because from experience, when I'm down about a situation and think nothing will go well negative things actually do happen. And when I'm excited about something and happy, the situation turns out to be better than I expected. And it also relates to your the way you feel/mood of that moment of time too.

Yes, I believe that luck can come about in any way. I agree that if you think positively, then positive things will happen to you. I also think that luck can come to you, when something unlucky happens to someone else... like finding 20 dollars.. obviously someone lost it. So basically everything everyone does is a domino effect, which affects all of us.

Yes, I do believe that luck results from things that you do as a person. If you always think negatively then negative things will happen to you because you don’t have a positive attitude. But if you think with a positive attitude then good things will happen to you. A good example of this would be if someone was having a bad day at school and they had to take a test and didn’t think that they were going to pass because they were having a bad day they probably wouldn’t get a good grade because they thought negatively. If you took the same situation and the person thought positively then they probably would get a better grade.

I do belive luck can happen to anyone who is positive and is thinking bright. I think that if people are in a good mood then luck will come towards them such as finding money for example. If people think wrong then it will be harder to move foward such as thinking bad then something bad might happen.

I think that luck is something we determine by our own actions. I believe how much luck you have starts from within. I feel it is influenced on your atitude toward life and your ability to adapt to change. Luck is what you make of it.

I believe luck is created by the things we do and how interpret what happens to us. Like you said if someone is more open minded and positive they will receive more "luck" where the opposite; a closed minded unlucky person will probably not go out and take chances receiving less "luck."
