The chance smiles on those who know how to recognize it. When it passes you, catch it in flight, if you don't want to regret it later. Here are some golden rules to help us recognize it when it appears…

Do you consider yourself lucky or rather unlucky? If you are part of the first category, it means that you have long learned to recognize the good opportunities, but if you are part of the second category, it is time to make a radical change! Know that for those who have the chance, one day they will not fall from the sky a super lucky, like in the lottery!

They work hard, although some would not admit it in their head. To be lucky, you must first trust your lucky star. For a start, make a small personal assessment.

Review all the happy events from which you have been able to benefit in the past: meetings that have changed the course of your life (in love, profession, or friends); those events that hit you in the plexus, that gave you butterflies in your stomach, changing your destiny. You have had enough chances, there is no doubt. But most of all, you had the presence of mind to notice a good time.

 Think positive

Everything, good or bad, does not come by itself. Stop fatalism! You need to eliminate negative thoughts, eliminate from your vocabulary expressions such as: "This only happens to me", "Whatever I do, I'm out of luck", "I will never win". of life, starting with trusting you.

No more dark thoughts! Chance will make you smile if you believe in it with all your might. Learn to "hunt" negative ideas and gather optimistic ideas. Here are some phrases that will help you "convert" to positive thinking. Stop saying, "I'm incapable." Say, "I've come across more difficult ones than this.

Instead of "I've never been lucky," you say, "I trust myself." Instead of "This just happens to me," you say, "Many women go through this." Instead of "I will never succeed," you say, "I give my best, so I have to succeed." Don't say, "I'm not gifted," but "I've made progress."

Listen to your intuition

Most decisions are made after the first impulse. Can't decide, do you hesitate too much? Clear up your problems very clearly. You will find yourself in front of a cascade of new thoughts and ideas. Trust your inner voice and follow your inspiration: it will push you in the right direction.

Overcome the fear of failure

Those who let the chance pass them by are usually the big shy ones who don't know how to "throw their heads forward". The fear of not making a mistake closes them in their shell.

Here's how to put one together for use with your new home. They do not dare to impose themselves. Unable to value their skills, they have little chance of gaining any professional advancement. For fear of being rejected, they neglect to call the person they are in love with.

Take the risk

If you are aware of your shyness, due to which you suffer enormously, learn, even if it is not easy, to be more defrosted, more daring…

Overcome your inhibitions and stop making another catastrophe out of any failure. It is possible to be deceived and your imagination to play "black" parties. Instead of making negative scenarios that block you, move on, without breaking the bank. You will see that the fears were unfounded.

Don't listen to words in vain

Faced with a dilemma, women tend to talk to others. Husband, colleague, sister, friends: so many interlocutors, so many different opinions that will confuse you even more. If you need an outside opinion, confess to only one person, truly competent in the issue that concerns you.

Take advantage of the opportunity!

The obsessive analysis of the pros and cons will not help. While weighing and analyzing, you may miss out on the opportunity for someone else who knows how to seize the opportunity. You have to decide before it's too late! It is ideal to set a deadline for thinking, which you should not exceed under any circumstances.

If the boss proposes to change your job and announces that he is waiting for an answer, say, Wednesday night, your decision must be ready by Wednesday morning. Do not change your decision, whatever it may be, even if you feel that you are in a hurry.

Psychologist's advice

The refusal to admit your chance entails all the misery in the world; this type of attitude, quite common, has its origins in a lack of self-confidence and a rather negative self-image. These people imagine that they do not "deserve" to be happy.
