Are You a Lucky Person??

Dr Robert Anthony sheds light on this Oh So Common Word "LUCK"
Do you think of yourself as being a lucky person or an unlucky person?Do you think you get more than your share of the good breaks in life; ordo you think you get more than your fair share of the bad breaks?When we’re thinking about those hopes and dreams of ours that didn’tcome true, and those ambitions of ours that came to nothing, we’reoften apt to put the blame on that something called fate, or good andbad luck. And it really is nonsense, isn’t it? Some of us say, “It’s in thestars,” or “It wasn’t in the stars.” We talk to cover up our ownshortcomings. We make our own luck, good or bad, by thenature of our consciousness. I think that Shakespeare sums that upvery well in Julius Caesar when he says, “Men at some time are masterof their fate, the fault dear Brutus is not with the stars, but inourselves.” We underlings might indeed be master of our own fate if onlywe could bring all our thoughts and actions into line with the creativepurpose for our life. If only we could align our thinking with ourpurpose, then we indeed would become master of our own fate. Buthow few of us are really prepared to trust our own Inner Guidance? Ohno, we prefer to reply on our judgments, and our past conditioning andwhen things go wrong, we’re prepared to blame God or fate, or thestars, or something else that didn’t go right.If the past, all the past, could be played out before us, acted out in everydetail, we should soon see when and where we went wrong, and wewould be able to see in the play acting of our past, the very point atwhich we left the right road to follow a wrong star. We could see wherewe made the fatal mistake. We made the choice, you see.God gaveus the gift of life, but he also gave us the gift of free will. We are theones who make the choices that either make or break the human life.Any time we want to, we can change the choices, and accept a differentkind of life. Don’t blame the stars for your problem, blame yourselfbecause you acted like an underling, rather than one who is created inthe image and likeness of the Great Reality. It is our faults and failingsthat throw grit in the wheels of destiny, and not some blind fate trying totrip us up, to hurt us or harm us. The Great Reality seeks only to pourinto our lives the unformed substance of absolute good. Whateverwe do with it by the nature of our consciousness is ourresponsibility. Out of every circumstance good can be made. We havewithin us the ingredients of good in every circumstance, and as weaccept this circumstance, you’ll find the so-called fates are suddenlybehind, and all goes well in our world. Why? Because we have alignedour path with the path of Creative Intelligence that always guides usto the perfect solution. All we need to do is to be open,responsive, and receptive to our own Inner Guidance.

Peace, Harmony and Success is Ours
