“幽默让我在很多紧张的情况都变得没那么慌张。如果你跟随自己的直觉，保持你的幽默，创造力也就如约而至。有了运气，成功也就来了。”——吉米·巴菲特

Look, we all make the occasional bad decision, so it’s in your best interest to be decisive. Trust your gut instinct and allow your intuition to guide you. Of course, you could agonize over every single decision in your life, but there is no guarantee that all that extra deliberation will lead to an increased likelihood of success (odds are it’ll just result in wasted time and opportunity).
我们都做过错误的决定，所以要让自己决断起来。相信你的直觉，让它指引着你。当然，你需要仔细衡量人生中的每一个决定，但也不能确保你的每一个深思熟虑都能加大成功的机会（也有可能只是浪费时间和机会罢了）。

5. Brush Your Shoulders Off
减轻负担

“Most of us regard good luck as our right, and bad luck as a betrayal of that right.” – William Feather
“大部分人都把好运看成是我们的权利，把坏运气视为对这种权利的背叛。”——威廉·斐勒

No, you can’t have it all. Yes, you will fail sometimes. No, life isn’t fair. Yes, you have to deal with it.
不，你不可能拥有所有的好运气；是的，有时候你也会失败；不，生活其实并不公平；是的，你得自己学着接受。

6. Try Again from Another Angle
从别的角度看待问题

“Remember that sometimes not getting what you want is a wonderful stroke of luck.”
“记住如果有时候没有得到你想要的，其实这是在攒运气呢。”

Just because your plan failed doesn’t necessarily mean it was a bad idea — it could just be your execution or that method of delivery needs to be tweaked. The more you learn and grow, the more “lucky” and successful you will be.
计划失败并不能说明你的想法是错误的——也许只是在执行过程中出了问题，或是方法需要改进。学习和成长的越多，你就会越幸运越成功。

7. Reduce Stress and Negative Thinking
减轻压力和消极想法

“Here’s the thing about luck…you don’t know if it’s good or bad until you have some perspective.” – Alice Hoffman
“这里有一个关于运气的东西......你不知道到底是好还是坏，直到你有一些观点。”——爱丽丝·霍夫曼

Remember that time agonizing over things beyond your control made all of your problems go away? Didn’t think so. Most of us are walking, talking balls of stress. If you’re so stressed out that you can’t think straight, open doors and opportunities will blow past you without the slightest recollection. The next time you’re feeling down, ask yourself these 10 questions that prove you’re doing better than you think (go ahead and bookmark that so you can repeat this exercise as needed!).
还记得一切尽在掌控烦恼全部没有的日子么？恐怕没有。我们都在压力下生活着。如果压力过大，你就无法简单思考，开启大门，机遇也会和你擦肩而过。下次感到低落的时候，问自己十个能证明自己做的比想象中还要好的问题吧（试试，记下来这些问题，以后可以经常拿出来练习哦）。

8. Live in the Now
活在当下

“When it comes to luck, you make your own.” – Bruce Springsteen
“说到运气，你需要自己去创造。”——布鲁斯·斯普林斯汀

It is easy to get so caught up in our own little worlds that we become oblivious to the other people, places, and things around us. Developing an ability to live in the present moment will help you notice opportunities that would otherwise breeze past without recollection.
小小世界被人追赶上太正常不过，我们也会遗忘其他人、地方以及一些事情。培养自己活在当下的能力能帮助你注意到机会，因为说不准什么时候就稍纵即逝了。

9. Be Curious about Everything
对一切充满好奇

“Ability is of little account without opportunity.” – Napoleon Bonaparte
“没有机会，能力将毫无用处。”——拿破仑·波拿巴
