3、es, people have recognized the power of luck and have done whatever they could to try 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 an

4、d other superstitions down from generation to generation? The answer lies in the power 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 f

5、rom all walks of life-ages 18 to 84responded.Over a ten-year period, I interviewed these 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 chan

6、ce opportunities; creating self-fulfilling prophecies through positive expectations; 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 ne

7、wspaper, and asked them to tell me how many photos were inside. On average, unlucky 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 peopl

8、e tended to spot the message. Unlucky ones didnt. I put a second one halfway through 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

9、 else. Lucky people see what is there rather than just what theyre looking for.This 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 notic

10、ed that at parties he usually talked to the same type of person. To change this, he 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 bas

11、ket of apples. At first, it wont matter where you look. The entire orchard will have 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

12、 luck.Relish the UpsideAnother important principle revolved around the way in which 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 si

13、lver medal. How happy do you think youd feel? Most of us think wed be happier after 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

14、 contrast, bronze medalists focus on how if theyd performed slightly worse, they wouldnt 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

15、ease the impact of misfortune, I asked my subjects to imagine being in a bank. Suddenly, 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: “Yo

16、u could have been shot in the head.“ This kind of thinking makes people feel better 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 enhanc

17、e good fortune.First come one-on-one meetings, during which participants completed questionnaires 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 pe

18、ople. For instance, they were taught how to be more open to opportunities around them, 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 we

19、re happier and more satisfied with their lives-and luckier. One unlucky subject said 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 t

20、o the store in a week, it was gone. Instead of slinking away disappointed, she looked 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

45、ents in the fewest possible words.48 An industrial society, especially one as centralized and concentrated as that of Britain, is heavily dependent on certain essential services: for instance, electricity supply, water, rail and road transport, the harbors, The area of dependency has widened to incl

46、ude removing rubbish, hospital and ambulance services, and, as the economy develops, central computer and information services as well. If any of these services ceases to operate, the whole economic system is in danger.It is this economic interdependency of the economic system which makes the power

47、of trade union such an important issue. Single trade unions have the ability to cut off many countries economic blood supply. This can happen more easily in Britain than in some other countries, in part because the labor force is highly organized. About 55 percent of Britain workers belong to unions

48、, compared to under a quarter in the United States. For historical reasons, Britains unions have tended to develop along trade and occupational lines, rather than on an industry-by-industry basis, which makes a wages policy, democracy in industry and the improvement of procedure for fixing wage leve

49、ls difficult to achieve.There are considerable strains and tensions in the trade union movement, some of them arising from their outdated and inefficient structure. Some unions have lost many members because of their industrial changes. Others are involved in arguments about who should represent workers in new trades. Unions for skilled trades are separate from general unions, which mean that different levels of wages for certain jobs are often a source
