May the luck of the Irish be with you!.. only if you believe in luck.

On a personal note, I don’t believe in luck.  I believe in coincidences (I’ll get to this later).  To believe that “bad” things happen due to an uncontrollable force (such as luck) seems silly to me.  Things happen for a reason, thus cause and effect.  The actions we take not only have an impact of an outcome in our daily life but also in the lives of other (I will go more in detail on a later post). 

I’ll give you an example:  A boy kicks a ball, the ball goes over a fence and lands on a man’s hand and he spills drink.  The effect of the man spilling his drink was caused by the boy kicking the ball over the fence.  Is the man unlucky?  or, was it a coincidence that the man was drinking his green beer on the other side of the fence?

It is important to realize that things don’t just happen to you because they do.  Everything you say, think and do effects the outcome of your day.  This is why “good” things happen to positive people.  On my next post I will discuss the fundamentals of a positive attitude.  Till then, Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
