A
BIG Research Surprise
Opportunity Wears A Fake Nose & Mustache
I read a great book back about 1980. Don’t remember
the title, but it was about luck. Why are people
lucky? How does luck happen? Can a cause be
pinpointed? What makes lucky people different from
unlucky people?
Rabbit’s Foot, Anyone?
The author
talked to a lot of people, those who considered
themselves lucky and those who didn’t. He’d find out
what had happened in their lives, and he chronicled
their incidents of luck. And then he looked at
differences & similarities of the people he’d
interviewed, and he came to a conclusion.
His conclusion was a revelation to me. Luck is NOT
random.
It’s the result
of what he called the spider web effect. People who
build webs tend to be lucky. People who don’t build
webs tend not to be lucky.
In other words … the more contacts you make in life
… the more relationships
you build … the fewer bridges you burn … the greater
the universe of people who have strong positive
feeling for you … the more people you reach out to
help … the more likely you are to be lucky.
This was fascinating. The biggest conclusion for me
was YOU are in
control of your own luck!
How To Catch
Flies
Isn’t that amazing? To be lucky, just put out thin
lines and thick lines… to people here, there and
everywhere.
Doesn’t this make perfect sense? The more contacts
you have, the more likely you’ll be in the right
place at the right time. In other words, when one of
your contacts runs into a huge opportunity that
would be perfect for you, chances are good they’ll
call YOU.
But if you never make that contact, you’ll never
hear about the opportunity. And if you don’t make
spider webbing a systematic lifetime habit, chances
are you’ll be one of those people who suffers a
lifetime of bad luck.
So build your web continuously, and you greatly
increase your chance of being in the path when good
things happen.
There’s an old saying, “The harder I work, the
luckier I get.” It’s true.
Especially if you work at building relationships.
Linda & I have been involved in MLM since 1978,
full-time since 1991.
We’ve made lifelong friends, and we’ve built a good
income.
Along the way, we’ve seen enormous change in the MLM
industry.
