What is luck exactly? According to the dictionary luck is defined as "the force that seems to operate for good or ill in a person's life, as in shaping circumstances, events or opportunities." You'll notice the use of the words 'the force' - where does this force come from? Is it internal or external? I believe that to believe it is external takes away all of our power as individuals. It seems to me that it is really just an easy way out. Hey, what could be better than having 'bad luck' to blame for all the things that you fail to achieve or do in your life?

I believe we make our own luck, in every breath, in every thought, in every worry, in every action and in every inaction. Today is the day I hope you all decide to make the luck you wish to have. If it is good luck you seek I am armed with a treasure chest of arsenal. First and foremost, I suggest the daily use of powerful affirmations.

Try saying any, or a combination of, the following three times each morning and evening to yourself while looking in a mirror. You may also repeat the ones you choose throughout your day as well. You may even write them on paper and place them in various locations that are visible to you to reinforce them.

Affirmations for "Luck":

I am in control of my fortune and success.
I welcome success with open arms.
Good things happen to me everyday.
I am surrounded by good luck; I am able to recognize it so I can benefit from it.
I am very lucky and fortunate.
I am grateful for the blessings that surround me.
I am powerful & create anything I choose.
I am mindful always.

These are in no way exclusive, feel free to create your own. The goal when creating your own is to use the words that make you feel powerful and in control. Let me know how it works for you and if you have any questions.

In addition to making your own luck with your words and use of affirmations you may also wish to do some sort of special ritual that will bring you good luck. The key with this is to do something that you feel will bring you the luck you desire. Remember luck comes from the inside first and foremost! When you perform any sort of ritual you are making your wish special and giving it respect and honor.

Takeaways
  • You can make your own luck by believing you can!
  • Luck is available to everyone.
