Lucky You- How to Cultivate LUck
I love this time of the year, when the seasons seem to aggressively change from fall to winter. Since I’m a Christmas time baby, I tend to naturally become very reflective along with the seasons. That way, by the time I’m turning over a new leaf I am left feeling pretty humbled and “lucky” about the life I’ve lived so far. During the shift in seasons it’s natural to look back at all of the great times had, challenges overcame and the accompanying personal growth. It’s also the perfect time of year to start thinking about what you could possibly do from here and what seeds you want to cultivate in the winter to bring you an amazing spring. So as the seasons change and the year comes to an end, reflect back on the times passed and start cultivating your kind of luck for 2015. These are some of the 23 ways to bring more luck in to your life.
Acknowledge and be humbled by the blessings you already have.
Become an expert at recognizing and letting go of that which no longer serves you.
If you are weird, good! Own that. Don’t ever stop being a weirdo, that is your brilliance shining through.
Don’t ever loose touch with the little kid in you. He/she is kind of a genius.
Let go of unsupportive thoughts, relationships and habits.
Let go of expectations and open up to rewriting a more inspiring ending .
