"HOW DO YOU BE INCREDIBLY LUCKY?"
Listen to the buzz. Listen to that internal feeling when you really know that this is a great opportunity. Prescribe to the "Law of Attraction" - the belief that opportunities consistently come up around us and we've got to make ourselves available to them. Listen to that internal buzz and be aware of it so that when those opportunities happen, you can bounce on them.
Ignore the odds. Don't ever be defeatist. Absolutely believe that you do have that opportunity.
Audaciously expect a great outcome. No matter what you're about to do, expect you're going to win. If you play the lottery, expect to win. If you need to catch a plane, expect to win. And remember that not winning can actually be lucky. Be grateful when you haven't won. In actuality, it may be opening up an amazing path for something totally different that's even better. Just keep positive energy around you at all times.
Create luck for others (Note from Keith: this is my philosophy of generosity). Make sure as you walk around this world that you consistently find other opportunities to create luck in other people's lives. Random acts of kindness and generosity will bring luck and generosity to you.
