The luck factor

Book • 2003
In 'The Luck Factor,' Richard Wiseman presents the results of his extensive research on why some people are consistently lucky while others are not.

The book is based on interviews and experiments involving over 1,000 people who self-identify as lucky or unlucky.

Wiseman identifies four key principles that distinguish lucky people: they are skilled at creating and noticing chance opportunities, make decisions based on intuition, have positive expectations about the future, and adopt a resilient attitude that transforms bad luck into good.

The book provides practical tips and scientific evidence to support the idea that luck is not random but can be influenced by one's behavior and mindset.
