Lucky people take constructive steps to prevent
more bad luck in the future
Lucky people approach unlucky situations in a far more constructive way than unlucky people. Unlucky people hardly ever spoke about trying to discover why they had not been successful in the past. They are reluctant to learn from their mistakes and so are far more likely to repeat them in the future. In contrast, lucky people often spontaneously said that they would treat their failures as an opportunity to learn and grow. When ill fortune blocks the path to their goals, they explore other ways of solving the problem.

Take five steps to the solution
Constructive problem solving involves five basic steps:

First, don't assume there is nothing you can do about the situation. Make the decision to take control.
Second, do something now.
Third, make a list of the various options. Be creative. Brainstorm. Come up with as many potential solutions as possible.
Fourth, decide on how you are going to move forward. Consider every possible solution.
Finally, start to solve the problem. Be prepared to adapt your solution as the future unfolds.
