Want To Prove Lucky Now?

It is believed that the lines in our palm hold the secret of our luck. But luck in different cases has different take. Some people’s luck is like Dharavi slum area. It is enriched in all sense but very tough to interpret. Some people’s luck is like film festivals. It gets great accolades but translates into nothing worthy. And some people’s luck is like Marine Drive or the Queen’s Necklace. Even if such people snatch rights of the world or the sea, no one can just dare to touch them. One thing is sure but, that everyone’s luck is very identical to God Almighty. Even if you do your best, you just can’t unravel all mysteries about it. 

Call it anything from hastarekha, luck, kismet or naseeb, its nature in general is very clear. Luck just cannot be foolproof at any time, for anyone. Take an example of Hiranyakashipu. He was blessed with a boon from God that no living creature could kill him, or he could not be killed during day or night, on land or in sky and by any weapon. So what, he still ran out of his luck and met with death. Narsinh avatar, a descent of God, came on earth to exterminate Hiranyakashipu and his luck ended just there and then. 

For many, luck is not a key to make your tomorrow better, but a handy excuse to blame others for their failures. We never hear it from any successful person that his or her luck not favoured in life. Strange but they hardly face bad luck when things fall in place. Bad luck is meant for those who have no explanation for their inability, inaction, mistake or sin. Good luck is for those who believe in rising again and again from the ashes. When a student fails to score good marks in exams, parents say it happened because of negligence towards studies. If a student is blamed like this, why people do not take blame of their wrong actions life the university of life?

Don’t think in terms of luck if you really want to be lucky. You have to trust yourself till you succeed and you have to be prepared to meet with any challenge until you make change truth. Work less but work well. Expect less but get it in a very systematic way. No one will look upon you when you have failed yourself. But the world will stand on its feet if you sail yourself in life. 

Now on, never say I quit or never feel I am unlucky. You have to be lucky by exercising your right to fight, right to act and right to decide. Once this is done, everything else will be done automatically by an invisible power for you!
