We have all seen someone and thought to ourselves, "How lucky they are." We even have many stories where we look at ourselves and see "How unlucky we are", right? So, what comes to your mind when you think of Luck?
Imagine walking on a path. There are other paths crossing yours. Some of these paths are full of positive things that you think will be good for you. Others have negative things like bad events or accidents.
Sometimes, by chance, our steps take us to paths with positive events, and we call this "Luck." Other times, with the same chance, we step onto negative paths, and we call this "Bad Luck."
So, what is Luck really? And how can we manage it?
Let's think of the light that helps us see where we are going on this path as our perspective on life. If our perspective is mostly negative, we tend to see and experience negative events, and we mostly go towards these negative paths. But if we have a positive perspective and focus on our positive experiences, we go towards positive paths.
Yes, some people are born with certain advantages or disadvantages like family, geography, language, or race. But once we start our journey in life, are we going to leave our responsibility towards this life to these?
We decide the quality of the light that shows us the way. The control is in our hands. Don't leave your life to Luck.
