This article in one of the blogs I had followed, is talking about making good fortune. Very interesting topic. From what it's trying to tell us that fortune is not only a random event, we can make fortune for ourselves. How to do that? Let's see to the explanation below.
3 secret principles that lead to good fortune :
1. Create good fortune for others
From what he said, "Most people think of getting and having as a key to good fortune. That's like thinking you are the center of the universe and you expect good things to flow towards us from all sides. But that's not what creates good fortune. The secret is turn your thinking around and consider others need, then take action."
2. Meet good fortune half way
From what he said, "I tend to be fortunate and I work hard for that good fortune. We have to put our heart and soul to a venture, to do our utmost. That effort attracts good fortune."
3. Be positive
From what he said, "Good fortune comes to those who are positive."
Sometimes when bad things happen, what we can do is learning and growing from whatever life give us. The important thing is to focus on the positive outcome, even it's hard to see when we are in painful situation. The lesson you ask for, can be a new seed for good fortune.
If we want to release ourselves from bad luck in the past, we need to let go our negative stories.
By doing these 3 principles, we not only create happiness to ourselves but also for others.
