Why do some people lead happy, successful lives whilst others face repeated failure and sadness? Why do some find their perfect partners whilst others stagger from one broken relationship to the next? What enables some people to have successful careers whilst others find themselves trapped in jobs they detest? And can unlucky people do anything to improve their luck - and lives?

Ten years ago, Professor Richard Wiseman decided to search for the elusive luck factor by investigating the actual beliefs and experiences of lucky and unlucky people. The results reveal a radical new way of looking at luck.

In this audiobook Wiseman identifies the four simple behavioural techniques that have been scientifically proven to help you attract good fortune. He then shows how you can use these methods to revolutionise every area of your life - including your relationships, personal finances and career.

very repetative on individuals accounts of how it helped them. Great to know...but so many...you get the message of the book early and it's a great one and then the meat of the book is theses examples, the end 45 mins was great like the beginning but I nearly didn't bother and would have missed out. Really unlike me to almost not finish a book. An amazing author though and has written some incredible books without any dragging on surprisingly for a short book. Read this defo, but do bear this in mind so you get the end new insights in discovery, they were great

great message however

It was easy to listen and catch while doing household activities. There are some insights about mindset of lucky and unlucky people.

Perfect to kill time

The chapters are not structured easily for audible, and some chapters make you jump far ahead into something. It made it harder to consume and go back to certain chapters for valuable information you may have overlooked, or even missed.

Ecen though this is my only complaint for this book, it influenced a lot towards the of the book itself. The important topics I want to re-hear because I forgot due noise outside while walking. Time flying and unaware of it, the crucial information vanishes.

It is one the longest times for me to finish book of any other, and therefore it has one less star.

If orginizing the chapters were more correct on when each topic started and finished, it would be way more easier to digest and consume this knowledge.

Chapters are Chaotic

I loved this book. So uplifting, enthusiastic and wonderful. A great mix of learning and life examples. Also brilliant delivery. So much better than reading a book myself,

Enthusiastic
