Bad luck

Việt Văn |

He knows someone who always complains and laments. When it's sunny, he complains of heat. When it rains, he complains of dampness. When there are few customers, he says bad luck. When there are many customers, he complains of fatigue. Whatever happens can become evidence that life is treating him unfairly. Listening to it, he feels that if one day that person wins the lottery, he will probably find a reason to be sad. Maybe because he has to pay taxes, because relatives borrow money, or because he is worried about not knowing how to spend it all.

Many of us also have a habit of recounting unfortunate things as if hoping for public concern and sympathy. She has complained about poverty for many years. He remembers every time he meets her, he hears familiar sentences such as "business is difficult, times are not favorable, customers are picky, others are luckier than me". But in those years, he has never seen her learn new skills, change her working style or try a different direction.

Meanwhile, at the beginning of the alley, there was a woman selling sticky rice and black bean porridge. She also encountered all kinds of troubles like everyone else. One day it rained all morning, the sticky rice and porridge were not sold much. Then she had to move to another alley, selling much worse because regular customers were afraid to go far. But instead of sitting and complaining, she found ways to sell more online, receive delivery to your door and then learn how to record videos with old phones. A few years later, the sticky rice and porridge stall became a small shop. Not because she was luckier than others, it was just that she spent time doing it instead of complaining.

People often talk about the law of attraction as something mysterious. In fact, sometimes it is very simple. If you focus on negative things all day, the brain will become a machine specializing in finding evidence that life is bad. The more you say you are miserable, the more you see misery. The more you believe you are unlucky, the more bad luck invites each other to come. In the end, life in your eyes is no different from a long rainy day, even though the sun is still shining out there. In fact, life is not too free to target someone alone to punish. Everyone has bad days. Successful people are not people who do not encounter failure. They just don't spend too much time sitting and analyzing why they are unlucky.

There is a very good saying: "Sleeping is a rocking chair. It helps you stay busy but doesn't take you anywhere". Complaining can help relieve your feelings for a few minutes, but rarely helps make your wallet thicker, work better, or life change more. What makes a difference is always action. Therefore, if you feel unlucky today, allow yourself to be a little sad. But don't turn suffering into the permanent address of your soul.

Stand up, do a small thing, and then another small thing. Because luck usually does not knock on the doors of people who are sitting and complaining. It likes to find people who are busy working and in their heads believe that tomorrow may be better than today.
