The Luck Formula: How to manifest good luck, helpful opportunities, and positive coincidences

By Tony McKendry

“Good luck is all about grabbing opportunities when they present themselves. The lucky amongst us simply know how to manifest those opportunities in the first place.” Tony McKendry

Have you ever wondered why other people seem lucky? Do you think you’re often missing out on the good luck gravy train? Do you think luck is just random chance – something that you have absolutely no control over?
If you answered yes to these questions then you obviously have an open mind and are ready to start absorbing some new thinking. The information in this book will help you understand the origins of luck and how you can create an environment for good luck and positive coincidence to fall into your lap. The good news is you don’t have to try harder, just fill your mind with the knowledge that you will soon discover. Over the next few pages you will benefit from my analysis of over forty years observing both successful (lucky) and unsuccessful (unlucky) people. I call it The Luck Formula, wrapped up in one easy to understand format. You’ll discover the process that will enhance your life in so many ways, so long as you stick to it because this formula for attracting opportunity and success is a proven tool. This very simple formula, and the positive effect it can have on your life, will be progressively presented to you throughout each chapter.

If you absorb the main component of this message, and share it with your family, your lives will never be the same again. I am not suggesting you’ll achieve everything you want in life, what I am saying is you’ll improve your present circumstances, get greater piece of mind, and become a far happier person. Success and good luck will come in varying degrees, but they will come.

Dedication

My amazing wife has been an integral part of my successes over the years and an absolute rock when things have gone pear shaped. She has taught me how important selflessness and strength of character is to a well-balanced life. In times of trouble, both in business and personally, she has kept me stable and sane.

This book is written for our three daughters. They have been subject to my adhoc pep talks and motivational missives their entire lives. Thank you for giving your Dad free rein to indulge his passion.

To Tricia, Jess, Britt, and Anna.

Introduction:

Good luck is all about grabbing opportunities when they present themselves. The lucky amongst us simply know how to manifest those opportunities in the first place.

Tony McKendry

Have you ever wondered why other people seem lucky? Do you think you’re often missing out on the good luck gravy train? Do you think luck is just random chance – something that you have absolutely no control over?

If you answered yes to these questions then you obviously have an open mind and are ready to start absorbing some new thinking. The information in this book will help you understand the origins of luck and how you can create an environment for good luck and positive coincidence to fall into your lap. The good news is you don’t have to try harder, just fill your mind with the knowledge that you will soon discover. Over the next few pages you will benefit from my analysis of over forty years observing both successful (lucky) and unsuccessful (unlucky) people. I call it The Luck Formula, wrapped up in one easy to understand format. You’ll discover the process that will enhance your life in so many ways, so long as you stick to it because this formula for attracting opportunity and success is a proven tool. This very simple formula, and the positive effect it can have on your life, will be progressively presented to you throughout each chapter.

If you absorb the main component of this message, and share it with your family, your lives will never be the same again. I am not suggesting you’ll achieve everything you want in life, what I am saying is you’ll improve your present circumstances, get greater piece of mind, and become a far happier person. Success and good luck will come in varying degrees, but they will come. This is far better than standing still and letting the vagaries of life have their merry way with you.

You may be thinking that life has handed you a poor deal so far. That it’s not your fault you’re in the situation you’re in, maybe that’s true, but maybe it’s not. Let me tell you one immutable truth - you only have total and absolute control over one aspect of your life right now, your thoughts and beliefs. And what you think about on a regular basis dictates your reality, so you do have an ability to construct new realities by changing your thinking from ‘lack to ‘luck’.

If you look at self-made successful people, the ones you feel may have been lucky in life, they often follow a process before ultimately receiving lucky breaks:

Daily thinking and dreaming of new realities or experiences – Persistent Effort – Failure – Persistent Effort – Failure – Persistent Effort – Failure – Persistent Effort – Helpful Coincidence Occurs – Presentation of Opportunity – New Reality Experienced.

The key is using your mind to think about future experiences that will both enrich and enliven your life. You’ll find varying degrees of luck and coincidental breaks are a by-product of that journey. Most importantly you’ll extract yourself from an inward thinking trap (woe is me) to future based thoughts (what might be).

Chapter One: Happiness and Contentment

Before we get started on the road to helping you obtain a life of plenty, as opposed to a life of varying degrees of pain, I want to share with you the biggest contributors to personal happiness. After four decades of observing thousands of successful and happy people, and also the failed and desperate within our western society, it has become abundantly clear to me there are eight states of ‘being’ for personal fulfilment.

If all you do is absorb these eight rules of personal development, agree within yourself that you will follow them, you could actually put this book down without turning another page and your life would start to take a momentous turn for the better. You would find circumstances turning from negative to positive, and ‘luck’ walking right on into your life.

However by reading further you’ll learn much more about how to secure and, most importantly, maintain your life of plenty.

THE EIGHT AGELESS RULES OF ATTAINING HAPPINESS & CONTENTMENT:

1. Have one big definite purpose in your life, and be determined to achieve it.

Call it a big goal, an ambition, or a dream. It’s that one thing that fills you with emotion fuelled desire to achieve. Count yourself very blessed if you know the feeling.

2. Enjoy the company of family and friends.
