Finding or Creating Good Luck

Here’s Something To Feel Good About Today!


“I’m a great believer in luck, and I find the harder I work, the more I have of it.” Thomas Jefferson

When we look around us, we can’t help but notice that some lives are blessed with such good fortune, while others seem to be so lacking. It’s one of life’s great mysteries that brings up the idea of Karmic balance as a way to explain the imbalances and inequalities of the world.

According to the dictionary, the definition of luck is “the chance happening of fortunate or adverse events.” This seems to contradicts the law of attraction which states that on some level, we create everything that happens to us for good or ill.

I like to believe that I have a hand in what comes my way. No matter what, I work proactively toward the outcome I desire. All I can do is be prepared so that when opportunities arise I am able to meet them and create the ‘good luck’ I am hoping for.

What do you believe? Is luck something that happens to find you, or do you play your part in creating it?

My passion has always been storytelling whether that involves writing or imagery. Following this passion, I built a 20-year career licensing my unique hand painted illustrations and product designs to renowned companies in the gift, paper, and home décor categories. My clients include Waterford Wedgwood, Tiffany & Co., George Caspari, Shurman Fine Papers, Block China, Simon & Schuster, Random House, Cartier, Shaw Living, Stephen Lawrence, and many more. To view samples of my artwork, just go to http://www.createdigitalart.com/designers/marlene.php. Now, my passion has taken me to blogging, compiling, and sharing stories of people who in their own small way have made a difference in someone’s life; stories that have the amazing ability to reawaken our senses to experience everything that is and can be good in the world and connect us with each other.
