No More Luck Journals
I’ve decided to no longer have dedicated blog posts as numbered luck journals for my Luck Factor book adventures. It’s so ingrained in my daily life now that anytime I write something it’s sure to be included. Like today. Went to the coffee shop and met someone new. I’ve never bumped into him before because

More practice in extroversion today. Stopped by the local brew pub this evening. On the patio were several people and in the bike racks I spotted a folding bike, one of my favorite kinds of bikes. I took a chance and asked the first person I saw if that was theirs and it was. Then

I’m an introvert at heart. But clearly the best way to increase my luck is going to be increasing my extroversion. Not an easy ask. So like I did in Luck Journal 1, and will continue to do, I sat on the patio today at my local coffee shop and greeted everyone coming in. I
