Is it true that we all make our own luck?
Therefore meaning that everything that goes wrong is directly our own fault?
If it is, how do we change it?

Elaborate, how so?
Most times you make your own luck but some things are out of your control. I’d say about70-90% of things/life is yours to make happen.
you can either trust your luck or don’t trust it at all,
both ways work, but differently.
just keep in mind that you eat what you cook,
so choose the ingredients carefully…
the more aware you are to choices you make, the more control you have on your luck.
that is very subjective to each individual, however things do happen that we have no control over and yes…sometimes one right after the other but a positive reaction and optimism changes everything
Well, of course not everything that goes wrong in our lives is our fault!
However, I do believe it’s all about having the right mindset and approach towards life :) Sure we have no control over many specific things, and I’m not saying that having positive outlook means bad things will never happen, but it will certainly help you deal with them, and stop you from feeling like a simply “unlucky” person.
I think life is 10% what happens to us and 90% our attitude. So O would say yes, we make our own luck…

Thanks :)
I wouldn’t go so far as to say that EVERYTHING that goes wrong is directly our fault. But I do think that the majority of what happens to us is under our control.
So i must just be unlucky then!
On a long enough timeline, everyone’s life is gonna suck the big one every now and then.

RESPONSIBILITY. A detachable burden easily shifted to the shoulders of God, Fate, Fortune, Luck or one’s neighbor. In the days of astrology it was customary to unload it upon

Destiny is a good thing to accept when it’s going your way. When it isn’t, don’t call it destiny; call it injustice, treachery, or simple bad luck.

As long as we are lucky we attribute it to our smartness; our bad luck we give the gods credit for.

spend as much time on improving your luck, as you do stroking your cat, and the skies the limit ha ha ha
