No need to be sorry, sir. It was just my question and I wanted to have others' ideas. So thank you to start this thread. :wink:

Quite simple no!

My friends refer to me as the unluckiest person they know!
Truth be told it`s probably not bad luck more to do with the fact i tend to walk around thinking and not paying attention to my enviroment, therefore i tend to trip over things, slip on wet floors, step on rust nails etc.

LUCK! Luck is not a factor. 6 Nations was the reawakening of the Dragon. I can't wait until November when we get to beat the All Blacks and the Aussies.

Luck? Sure, I have lots of luck, all of it bad. :grumpy: (But, of course, if things go well, it's certainly not luck, it's skill. :biggrin:)

I think I have pretty good luck. For example, when I play rummy with my family I win 60%+ of the games, which I say is skill :smile: but my family says luck.

I have seem true bad luck hit the same people time and time again. I can also say the same for good luck. I'm more of a even keel luck person, a little of each and my boat won't tip.

I used to be pretty lucky when I had less than 17, but now I'm not. :cry: :cry: But well at least I know people who have really bad luck and bring bad luck for others too. :uhh: My favorite football team always loses when 1 of my relatives comes to visit us. :grumpy: :grumpy: So I try not to invite that person when my favorite teams have an important match.

1. What is the definition of "luck" in this context?

In this context, "luck" refers to a positive or desirable outcome that is not influenced by one's actions or decisions. It is often perceived as a random or chance occurrence.

2. How does luck play a role in everyday life?

Luck can play a role in everyday life by affecting the outcomes of events or situations that are out of our control. It can also impact our perceptions and attitudes towards certain situations.

3. Can someone's luck change over time?

Yes, someone's luck can change over time. Luck is often perceived as a random occurrence, so it can fluctuate and change over time. Factors such as personal beliefs, attitude, and actions can also influence one's perceived luck.

4. Is there a way to increase one's luck?

While there is no definitive way to increase one's luck, some people believe that having a positive attitude, being open to new opportunities, and taking action towards one's goals can improve their chances of experiencing positive outcomes.

5. How does not winning something impact one's luck?

Not winning something does not necessarily impact one's luck. Luck is often perceived as a random occurrence, so not winning does not necessarily mean that someone is unlucky. It is important to remember that luck is just one factor that can influence outcomes, and it is not the sole determinant of success or failure.
