The second is listening to their instincts. Lucky people trust their gut and make decisions based on intuition. Many of them also actively work to sharpen that intuition through practices like meditation.
The third is expecting good fortune. Lucky people genuinely believe that good things are coming their way, and that belief tends to become a self-fulfilling prophecy. It helps them push through setbacks and show up more positively in their relationships.

The fourth and last one is turning bad luck around. When things do go wrong, lucky people find ways to reframe the situation. They remind themselves it could have been worse, avoid dwelling on what happened, and work on regaining a sense of control.
It’s easy to see why this works. If you’re constantly zeroing in on everything going wrong, that mindset tends to become a cycle that’s hard to break out of. But if you’re able to approach setbacks more positively, you start noticing the good in situations more naturally, and that shift in perspective can actually change the outcomes you experience.

Axolotl! And yes, luckily he’s chill. We lost about 40 of 55 gallons through a slower leak. EDIT: Hijacking this top-comment to add that this picture is AFTER I DRILLED DRAIN HOLES. It was not dripping like this the whole time.
If something unlucky has happened to you recently, it’s worth remembering that it wasn’t your fault. According to science, it was simply a matter of chance, and on that particular day, chance just wasn’t on your side. But if you do want to be luckier in life, apparently genuinely believing that you are a lucky person can go a long way—so maybe give that a try.
