How to Create Your Own Luck by Carole Ann Rice
At Cerise UK we know that sometimes life doesn't play fair. Last week I was faced with a tough decision between my boiler or my cooker. As we number six in this household I figured that we needed to bathe more than we needed to cook and frankly some of us could do with shedding a few pounds anyway. So the cooker was disconnected and classed as immediately dangerous by the heating engineer due to a lack of pressure when all the gas appliances were on, JOY! Thank goodness I chose the boiler as that was the very night that the nit infestation began. (Go on, scratch. Its all in your mind!) The wider world provided no respite either. I won't even get started on greedy MPs in current economic climate or the Arsenal results..
In these challenging times is it any wonder that one of the strongest trends in jewellery is the return of the lucky charm? Vicky Davies Clover Pendants and Alex Monroe Lucky Charm Bracelets have been flying of the shelf. Now while I'm all for a good talisman there are other ways that we can be a bit more in control of our fortunes. Returning to the Cerise UK blog to help us all out in mastering these skills is Life Coach, Writer and part time Goddess Carol Ann Rice.
How To Create Your Own Luck By Carole Ann Rice - Life Coach and Writer
Are you one of those people who think luck is something that happens to other people?
Does the toast always fall jam side down for you? Do others seem blessed to life on easy street while your destiny is one of struggle and hardship?
In my new book Find Your Dream Job (Marshall Cavendish - £12.99) co-written with Sarah Wade, you can read real stories of how ordinary people went from dead end jobs to finding a job that makes their heart sing. In short, they created their own luck.
I provide the coaching notes to help you along the way. It's on Amazon now and has five gold stars rating - yaayy!
But in the meantime if you want to leverage your own luck it might be time to de-tox your thoughts as your limiting beliefs could be keeping you stuck in a life of hardship and gloom.
Lucky charms, magic stones and black cats; use whatever lights your fire when you need to call on Fortuna to deal you a royal flush. But let me exclusively reveal there is a much more accessible talisman you can personally tune up to attract wealth, opportunity and possibilities.
Here is a simple equation to ponder on:
The Definition of Luck is When Intention + Preparedness meets Opportunity.
Here are 10 sure-fire ways of increasing your Luck and creating unlimited potential into your life now which I use with my own clients:
- Have a big dream. Get really clear about what you want and imagine it every day. Build a Vision Board of photos and objects which all go to remind you of your dream
- Act "as if" you already lived your dream. Relish how it feels to have all you want, walk it, talk it and be it. You will soon find yourself attracting all sorts of good stuff.
- Start to tell people about the dream and create a community of like minded thinkers or well-connected others that can help you.
- What you focus on expands - so choose to concentrate on positive, hopeful and nurturing things. Remember, it is a choice.
- Look at your beliefs. Are you limiting your own chances of opportunity with thoughts such as "I'm not good enough" or "I don't deserve"?
- Could you be sabotaging your own chances of good fortune because deep down the thought of success, happiness or love really frightens you?
- Decide to ditch the energy vampires - friends or colleagues who drain you, use you or "do down" your ideas and gravitate towards positive, can-do people.
- Every day take at least one baby step towards your dream - whether it's researching on the Internet, visiting the library or networking. Do everything with the intention of creating success.
- What do you need to let go of or stop tolerating to free up your energy?
- Hire a coach. A superb and effortless way of reaching your goals.
