Do you believe in luck?

I think we create our own luck, both good and bad. A person does not get a good job without preparation, and most people don't get fired without doing something to cause it. That does not apply to downsizing though. Then there are the times that maybe a person did something that if the circumstances were different, or if they had gotten caught, they would really have been in trouble. In that case they could be considered lucky, so I guess the argument works both ways...or it could merely mean that there really are exceptions to every rule.

I agree with you, when good things happen, we say - 'I'm feeling lucky', and so we do say - 'I'm unlucky', when things go wrong. However, I attribute luck to the events, incidents or happenings that go beyond my control. Who else to put blame on but for that default word?

I don't think I am lucky.I never won a sweep stake.But I have won many puzzle and quiz contests in Newspapers.I believe in hard work and brains.It always pays

i dont really know if i believe in luck or not, i believe that we can get lucky when something good happens for us then were "lucky" but any other time ... luck is just something that we wish for so things can go our way ... but no i dont really think we ever really get luck and its taken away ... idk ... its a crazy thing ...
