If you are asking yourself, Is today a good day for gambling? Is it my lucky day? Am I going to do well with my bets? Here are four principles of luck:

• Maximize your chance opportunities. Remember, if you do not try you will never win. Try if you want to win, and if you fail do it again.
• Listen to your lucky hunches. Build up a strong intuition by clearing your mind of other things. Note that about 20% more of the lucky people engage in meditation than unlucky people.
• Turn your bad luck into good. Firstly, imagine a worst case scenario. Second is to make a long view. Third, don’t be sorry, don’t sob or whine. Fourth, analyze what has happened.
• Expect good fortune. Lucky people are certain that the future is going to give them what they want. These sort of expectations influence over your thoughts and behavior.

It is good to remember that luck is everything but also a personal thing. If you believe in the use of lucky charms and performing some rituals, continue to do them because at the end of the day, it’s your luck vs the world.
