Just a couple of years ago, I had a bunch of dogs. The number varied, depending on how many rescue dogs were in residence at the time, but I averaged about 10 dogs.

It's as if they really do have the Midas touch. Whatever they undertake appears to prosper and they make it look incredibly easily. When they make an investment, it gives a great return in record time. If they enter a contest, they win -- hands down.

If we looked closely, I'm sure we would find lots of setbacks in the lives of those "lucky" people, but they aren't obvious, on the surface. That's partly because we make assumptions about how easy things are for them, which is due, in part, to their own attitudes. They believe things are good, no matter the struggle or the immediate outcome.
