Comments on: Good Luck or Bad Luck? http://saferbychoice.com/2010/02/good-luck-or-bad-luck/ A little thought can make all the difference Mon, 16 Aug 2010 12:10:30 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Tim http://saferbychoice.com/2010/02/good-luck-or-bad-luck/comment-page-1/#comment-150 Tim Mon, 22 Feb 2010 23:06:33 +0000 http://saferbychoice.com/?p=693#comment-150 We make our own luck, right? I could follow a path of logic that points to lot's of decisions I made in my life that led to me being in the place I met my wife, but that was not the intent of all those decision. Being there, at that time in our lives, was lucky (for me anyway) and was a consequence of all the events prior. That sort of makes 'residue' an interesting word choice. We make our own luck, right?

It's like how some people are considered an overnight success, when in fact they have paid their dues. Then there are the cases where someone finds the short cut, not because they were looking for it, but it just happens.

On the one hand I feel like "the harder you work, the luckier you get" like with an American Idol contestant, but then again, sometimes just being in a certain place at a certain time can really throw you a curve ball...good or bad. Nice list and good food for thought as I go through my day. I have a love/hate relationship with the idea of luck.
