The Luck Factor: The Scientific Study of the Lucky Mind
Richard Wiseman
Synopsis
Ten years ago, Dr Richard Wiseman decided to search for the elusive luck factor by investigating the actual beliefs and experiences of lucky and unlucky people. Looking at the results, Wiseman was able to identify four main factors which explained living a lucky and unlucky life. He was then able to show a group of people that considered themselves unlucky, how to think and behave like lucky people. The results were astounding with almost all participants reporting significant life changes: including increased levels of luck, self-esteem, physical well-being, confidence and success. In this study of luck, Dr Wiseman not only identifies '"he Luck Factor", but shows us how we can all bring more luck into our lives.
