[Edmond · Rating 3 out of 5]

Kind of dated but still great advice. Keep a positive attitude and keep things in perspective and luck will find it’s way to you. This seems to be an old book but a fun read.

[Nikki Soulsby · Rating 3 out of 5]

While some of these stories are a bit dated the general principles for attracting good luck seem to still be relevant. The author has put together a study of lucky people and what worked (or didn't) for them. I would have loved a summary section at the end with recommendations, but as it stands the book is a decent read.

While I did get a few good points from this book, most of it is common sense and gets a bit dull if you've already read a few Self Help Books.
