Increase Your Luck Factor with These Tools

• Examine your hunch closely.  Nobody can really be sure of a hunch, but you can evaluate it by testing its strength and feeling around the edges of it. 
• Deliberately try to make your hunch break down.  Argue with it by listing reasons why it might not be valid.  If a hunch is not strong, or if it is based on wishful thinking, it will be unable to defend itself.
• Recognize  that you are in a situation where hunch and hope may become confused with one another.  When that awareness hits you, it will make you more careful.  I can not stress enough the importance of giving yourself enough time to fully evaluate your hunch.

Lucky people typically organize their lives in an analogous way.  They know that almost any venture can lead to either loss and gain.  They have the ability to discard bad luck before it become worse luck.  This sounds simple and no more than common sense.  However, that is not always the case.  A great number of people (usually the unlucky) never seem to be able to master it.  They habitually get themselves stuck in bad situations and in many cases, remain stuck for life.  By remembering these next two points, you can avoid this pitfall.

• It’s too hard to admit that you are wrong.  This is one of the two main reasons for bad luck.  Unlucky people get stuck in a situation by being unable to reverse  decisions.  This sentences them to stagnation in bad situations or in counter=productive plans of action.
• It’s too hard to abandon an investment.  This could apply to a financial investment or one made up of emotions and or time.  Being willing to cut your losses in order to change your luck factor is a major requirement.

By following these guidelines you will be able to determine whether or not to follow a hunch more effectively.  Keep listing these guidelines in your head regularly in order to drill them into your way of thinking.  By doing this regularly, you are deliberately cultivating the habit of effectively following hunches.   Make sure to follow them closely and faithfully.  Remember, your luck factor will be sure to increase over time, so don’t be discouraged.  With time, your factor will surely grow.
