2、y seizing it. Take knocking on wood, thought to date back to pagan rituals aimed at eliciting help from powerful tree gods. We still do it today, though few, if any, of us worship tree gods. So why do we pass this and other superstitions down from generation to generation? The answer lies in the pow
3、er of hick.Live a Charmed lifeTo investigate scientifically why some people are consistently lucky and others arent, I advertised in national periodicals for volunteers of both varieties. Four hundred men and woman from all walks of life-ages 18 to 84responded.Over a ten-year period, I interviewed t
4、hese volunteers, asked them to complete diaries, personality questionnaires and IQ tests, and invited them to my laboratory for experiments. Lucky people, I found, get that way via some basic principles- seizing chance opportunities; creating self-fulfilling prophecies through positive expectations;
5、 and adopting a resilient attitude that turns had luck around.Open Your MindConsider chance opportunities: Lucky people regularly have them; unlucky people dont. To determine why, I gave lucky and unlucky people a newspaper, and asked them to tell me how many photos were inside. On average, unlucky
6、people spent about two minutes un this exercise; lucky people spent seconds. Why? Because on the papers second page-in big type-was the message “Stop counting: There are 43 photographs in this newspaper.“ Lucky people tended to spot the message. Unlucky ones didnt. I put a second one halfway through
7、 the paper: “Stop counting, tell the experimenter you have seen this and win250.“ Again, the unlucky people missed it.The lesson: Unlucky people miss chance opportunities because theyre too busy looking for something else. Lucky people see what is there rather than just what theyre looking for.This
8、is only part of the story. Many of my lanky participants tried hard to add variety to their lives. Before making important decisions, one altered his route to work. Another described a way of meeting people. He noticed that at parties he usually talked to the same type of person. To change this, he
9、thought of a color and then spoke only to guests wearing that color-women in red, say, or men in black.Does this technique work? Well, imagine living in the canter of an apple orchard. Each day you must collect a basket of apples. At first, it wont matter where you look. The entire orchard will have
10、 apples. Gradually, it becomes harder to find apples in places youve visited before. If you go to new parts of the orchard each time, the odds of finding apples will increase dramatically. It is exactly the same with luck.Relish the UpsideAnother important principle revolved around the way in which
11、lucky and unlucky people deal with misfortune. Imagine representing your country in the Olympics. You compete, do well, and win a bronze medal. Now imagine a second Olympics. This time you do even better and win a silver medal. How happy do you think youd feel? Most of us think wed be happier after
12、winning the silver medal.But research suggests athletes who win bronze medals are actually happier. This is because silver medalists think that if theyd performed slightly better, they might have won a gold medal. In contrast, bronze medalists focus on how if theyd performed slightly worse, they wou
13、ldnt have won anything. Psychologists call this ability to imagine what might have happened, rather than what actually happened, “counter-factual“ thinking.To find out if lucky people use counter-factual thinking to ease the impact of misfortune, I asked my subjects to imagine being in a bank. Sudde
14、nly, an armed robber enters and fires a shot that hits them in the arms. Unlucky people tended to say this would be their bad luck to be in the bank during the robbery. Lucky people said it could have been worse: “You could have been shot in the head.“ This kind of thinking makes people feel better
15、about themselves, keeps expectations high, and increases the likelihood of continuing to live a lucky life.Learn to Be LuckyFinally, I created a series of experiments examining whether thought and behavior can enhance good fortune.First come one-on-one meetings, during which participants completed q
16、uestionnaires that measured their luck and their satisfaction with six key areas of their lives. I then outlined the main principles of luck, and described techniques designed to help participants react like lucky people. For instance, they were taught how to be more open to opportunities around the
17、m, how to break routines, and how to deal with bad luck by imagining things being worse. They were asked to carry out specific exercises for a month and then report back to me.The results were dramatic: 80 percent were happier and more satisfied with their lives-and luckier. One unlucky subject said
18、 that after adjusting her attitude-expecting good fortune, not dwelling on the negative-her bad luck had vanished. One day, she went shopping and found a dress she liked. But she didnt buy it, and when she returned to the store in a week, it was gone. Instead of slinking away disappointed, she looke
19、d around and found a better dress-for less. Events like this made her a much happier person.Her experience shows how thoughts and behavior affect the good and bad fortune we encounter. It proves that the most elusive of holy grails-an effective way of taking advantage of the power of luck-is availab

Experts have been interested in these effects and have agreed on five basic stages of culture shock. These stages are gen
