She thinks she's so unlucky

August 9, 2011 12:59am CST
My best-friend call me earlier this morning and she just ask me this big Question, that she thinks she is unlucky, she think everything she did yesterday and today just not right and don't have good outcome. so I just told him that sometimes what happened in our life is not always what we want, even if we think we did the right thing, something will always turn that not in favor of us... Do you sometimes ask yourself why you're so unlucky my fellow mylotters?

Luck is truly relative and highly unexplainable. However, the important thing is the actions you take to control the situation. Take a moment and think of all the unfortunate people in the world and probably you will not feel that you are unlucky at all. Rather that thinking that you are unlucky, one should reflect on the actions leading to such situation and never make the same mistake again.

Even if I had a very bad day I always think that I am still lucky. you know why? Because at the end of the day, I still have food on my plate, a bed to sleep and a roof for shelter. Look at the good things that you have and you won't feel unlucky at all.

I think we all feel like that at one time or another. We all have days in our life that don't go very well or can be downright horrible. We can also have one bad thing happen to us after another which will usually result in us feeling unlucky. Of course it is just life though and eventually we all have to ride the roller coaster downward, but the strong survive and things will get better.

I've actually asked God why do i have to be orphaned at the age of 13? Why did He have to take my parents away? Why were they murdered? I even asked God what i have done so wrong in my life that he took my parents away from me. I considered that as a punishment before but when i started reading my bible i learned that God didn't punish me. So now i don't look at bad things happening around me as a curse. Now i'm considering them all as a blessing to make me a better person.

No one is an unlucky person. It's just that, things did not work the way they want it to. But if they learn how to surrender to God and let Him have His way, your friend will never say he is unlucky, but would say God will , in His own time and way.

I think that I just tell it to myself that I am not but don't really mean it. There are just a lot of things in life that aren't meant for us and that is chiefly the reason why we simply can't have all of it. And there is no reason to brood about it because I am sure that we also succeeded in some things.

This reminded me of the saying …luck is when opportunity meets preparation. I don't believe in arbitrary bad luck. We make our own luck most of the time and perhaps at others times we are just being given the gift of experiencing different situations???

i don't really know what to say to this, because i'm not very lucky.. if anything i'm quite lucky. although i am a firm believer that we make our own luck in this world, so maybe it just seems like i'm lucky, because when i put my mind to something, or want something, i generally go for it and make it happen. i think you should tell your friend, that what will be will be, but if she really feels that unlucky, tell her to remember its all in the mind, and if she focuses, and takes control, she can achieve what she wants to, luck or not.. because if she really wants it, she'll get it, it just might take her a few more goes than others if she really is "unlucky"

I'm a positive minded person but sometimes I'm that pessimistic. But it doesn't mean that you/we are unlucky if we did something not excellent. We all know that nobody is perfect, right? Just tell your friend to let go all those negative vibes in herself. Happy Mylotting, God Bless

Don't think it unlucky if the things you do did not come out good or not in favor to you. .there's maybe something waiting ahead. .just think that that thing is not for you . .Just count all the good things instead of thinking the things that are not favor on you

Don't ever feel so u r unlucky. This is a negative belief system if u adopt cn ruin ur life. Life is nt always u want to be, Instead of counting ur curses, why dont u count ur blessings and feel urself lucky for that.
