Are you a Lucky Duck?

You have to know by now that while there are a lot of ways to put yourself 
on an intersect with wealth and prosperity, there’s also a certain element of luck associated with getting rich or finding any kind of success.
Take for example a guy that purchases a fantastically catchy web address for his website about pizza and goes on to sell it for $2.6 million. Or a land developer that invests in property in the middle of nowhere that suddenly becomes the middle of somewhere.
What do they both have in common? They could be brilliant strategy and preparation, or it could just be just sheer luck. Or both. Who knows!? The one thing we know for sure is that they stepped up to the banks of life’s river and jumped in with no hesitation. They took to success like ducks to water.
Here it is: No luck, or anything worthwhile for that matter, will ever come your way unless you take some form of action.
As our dear friend Brian Tracy says, “I've found that luck is quite predictable. If you want more luck, take more chances. Be more active. Show up more often.” And we couldn’t agree more.
It’s the same with finances. To succeed financially, you have to do something, buy something, or start something in order to get anywhere. And when you do, is it luck or is it the Universe (yay!) supporting you in its miraculous ways for having the courage and commitment to go for it? As far as we’re concerned, who cares? It just happens!
Rich people see an opportunity, jump on it, and get even richer. As for not-rich people, they’re still “preparing” on the banks of that river! Stop preparing to get rich and start getting rich NOW. Get those feathers wet! Trust in yourself and your abilities. Know that you can make intelligent decisions in the spur of the moment, make corrections with certainty and strength and paddle your way to success.
Also remember that what you focus on expands! Always think about what you want, instead of what you don’t want. Continue being overwhelmed by the amount of opportunities around you to become rich and you’ll find yourself there faster than you can say, “I’m a lucky duck!”
