I know I’ve come across lots of people who believe that luck is the essential ingredient to success, but the truth of the matter is, it’s not!

People who say success boils down to luck typically are people who are jealous of those who achieve success.  They have this idea that luck randomly occurs willy nilly!  But that’s not the case at all!

You see, luck is far from a random thing!  We create it ourselves when we make the choice to choose success! Remember my interview with my friend Lorne Cousin and Madonna

Success is a choice!

Successful people are successful because they choose success!

They choose to be successful.

They outwardly reject anything that isn’t success, and don’t rest until success is firmly within their grasp.

When people make a choice to pursue success and persist until it is theirs, they attract into their lives situations and circumstances that will help them make that success happen.

And yes, some may call that luck.

But at the end of the day, it’s simply what happens when you decide to choose success for yourself.

The ‘luck’ doesn’t come automatically.

It comes when one consciously chooses to focus on success!

Success truly is a state of mind. Many successful people will tell you that their journey to success began when they formulated a vision and a goal in their mind.

Initially they have the idea of what they want, and then they really begin to visualize what it would be like for that idea to become a reality.

They create in their minds pictures of that success happening in their lives, and they get excited about it!

They take the time each day to think of the attainment of that goal…and they feel good about it!

This keeps them passionate about the attainment of that goal!

And in entertaining these thoughts of success attainment, those favourable scenarios, opportunities, etc, come about.

It’s when luck or magic happens!

But as you can see, it doesn’t happen randomly!  The ‘luck’ happens when we choose success.

Put it to the test for yourself today!
