LUCKY DAY EVERY DAY

Seeing opportunity is one of the absolute necessities to find success, combined with the ability to take it. In the well known book the 'luck factor' one of the exercises they conducted was about two individuals walking into a coffee shop at different times.. The one who considered himself  unlucky  failed to see a £5 note on the floor as he went in, as well as neglecting to talk to the other individual in the cafe. The person who had described himself as lucky saw the money spoke to the person and exchanged contact details.

So this is an exercise, but which one do you relate to. The reason I bring this up today is as I was going into my local Tesco I saw a  £50 note on the pavement other people weren't seeing, I picked it up and noticed the owner was the Queen who has got far too much of the stuff anyway, and obviously had left it there for me. Now the question is should I have taken the money into the shop and given it to the cashier, so should someone come in and say 'I've lost a fifty pound note' they would be able to return it to the rightful owner. Alternatively I could have yelled at the top of my voice "has anyone lost a fifty pound note?" What would you do?

Well it just goes to show in the middle of a lunch time at a local supermarket entrance there's money to be seen on the floor if you care to look which as I'm always saying 95% of people don't. When was the last time lady luck treated you so nicely or is it back to the old seeing opportunity that's right in front of you. It's a skill ..it takes practice and if your don't use it you will most definitely loose it. So keep looking for opportunity ... Expect it... And yours will be whatever you desire...but do pick it up!
