I believe positive energy can have a cumulative effect. The expressions "he's on a roll" or "when you're hot, you're hot"refer to people with one good thing happening after another. Have you ever been in sales? When I worked in a store and had a good day, it seemed so much easier to do it again the next day. Then suddenly I'd get into a slump and 5 or 6 days would go by without a single sale. However, one reason is because enthusiasm and attitude is important in sales. The same goes for sports. People/teams get into a zone where they are winning or losing and their enthusiasm, energy and positive thinking are definitely important factors. It even applies to personal relationships. However, I'm not quite sure a positive attitude or one's state of mind has any effect on the lottery since it is a game of chance. I mean, the most miserable person could buy a "QuickPick" and win millions. So that's just a case of being in the right place at the right time. At least in a casino, many games combine some skill with luck. Any moron can win the lottery, even people who sweep tickets under their beds! On the other hand, many people who have won jackpots say they won smaller amounts the previous week, but by "reinvesting" the money they also bought a lot more tickets than they normally would, thereby lowering the odds. That being said, the people who play slot machines & win a little and continue to put the money back over and over again, usually walk away with nothing.
Stay positive, Sirbrad. It can't hurt!
