An experiment involving 400 voluteers established that instead of good and bad luck, our thoughts are behavior are responsible for our bad luck.

This guide belongs to 100 Ways To Be Being Remarkable Series, a special project that brings you business and self-development advice from The Success Manual.

You can be lucky by abandoning the ways of unlucky people. The above mentioned experiment points out these habits of unlucky people:

1. Unlucky People are Tense and thus they are slow in warming up to new opportunities.
Lucky people tend to be enthusiastic people.

2. Unlucky people are looking at negative things in life.
For example, Instead of looking for friends at events, unlucky people will look for people to pass time.

3. Unlucky people are less observant.
They are lost too deep i their thoughts and thus lose track of good opportunities in life that come up daily.

Basically, being lucky means,

1. Being more adventurous
2. Not being afraid to fail: As they say, Fortune favors the brave.
3. Relaxing in between
4. Thinking out of the box
5. Thinking Positive

Final Note: I read this great line somewhere.

Don't take luck personally; there isn't enough luck out there for everyone to be as lucky as Bill Gates.

Having said that, try and try you must.
