Add You - Bad Luck, Bad Choices, and Bad Habits
I received an email the other day from one of our customers. "Please help. I am desperate. My life is a mess. I have read your book, The Initiation. I think it's true what you say, but nothing is working for me."Of course, I responded. It was more than a plea for help, it was a challenge.So we got into some back and forth emails, quest
If you choose to frequent shady parts of town or risky establishments, and you get mugged, is that bad luck or bad choices?
You get the point.
How often do we call something bad luck when it is really the result of bad habits or bad choices?

Most serious video and computer gamers spend many hours trying to learn the tips, tricks and cheats in order to win their video games. What in essence they are trying to do is manipulate the computer system in order to win or score more points in the videogame.This is unfortunate because perhaps we are teaching our children our teenagers tha
“It sure is too bad, all the bad luck they have,” she said.
My first thought was, “Bad habits, not bad luck.”
My second thought was, “Or is it bad choices?”
You see, there is a difference. What we many times call bad luck is merely bad choices.
Let me explain:
If you work hard, buy a new car, keep it up with regular maintenance and blow a tire driving down the road, that is bad luck.
However, if you drive on your tires until they are almost bald and drive at speeds higher than they are recommended for, and keep them at the wrong inflation level, and then the tire blows, that is not bad luck but bad choices. The tire blew because you chose not to buy new ones. The tire blew because you chose not to take the time to check your tire inflation level the last time you filled up the tank.
It is bad luck to leave your house on vacation and while you are away the gas line breaks and the house blows up.
It is bad habits to not tend to taking care of your house, replacing the roof, painting, etc until it is a junk pile. It is bad luck to be let go from a company that goes into meltdown because the CEO acted unethically and the stock tanks, forcing layoffs.
It is both bad choices and bad habits to be late to work everyday, display shoddy workmanship and have a bad attitude to the point that the boss fires you.

On March 9, Bulgarian Parliament allowed foreign citizens to buy land in Bulgaria. Now foreigners and foreign legal persons may acquire land, plots, forests, forest stock land tracks and agricultural land. This law also regards the adjoining land of apartments, flats, houses, etc. Now it can be bought as easily as the building itself.Foreigne

I thought it might be a good idea to talk about over-used phrases in romance novels and short stories. This isn't just for me to have a moan and groan, but for you writers to consider avoiding over-use.We've all done it at some time or another -- picked up a book by a well known or even not so well known author and put it down again, wonderin

The first sign many people notice when they need an eye exam is that their night vision has gotten worse. The reason for this is that when your eyes are out of focus it causes a pinpoint of light to blur into a fuzzy ball. The larger the pupils become, such as in dim light, the larger these blur circles become and the greater the blur. Bright light,

This really boils down to a matter of ownership of our lives and actions. Do we take full responsibility for our lives or not? I know of a gentleman who was recently passed over for a job. It would have paid him $13,000 for a week’s worth of work. The person who passed him over told me why. Knowing this gentleman, I said, “It is too bad, because with a few good choices, that guy could be living in a nice house, driving nice cars, and having very few financial problems.”
What about you? Do you experience bad luck? Or bad habits? Or bad choices?
The next time you hear someone say, “He’s down on his luck,” perhaps you ought to ask, “Or is he down on his choices?” I have found that those who have good habits and make good choices tend to experience the best luck!
So, if you want a little good luck, make some good choices and develop some good habits.
