And it also, I really believe it shifts our mood and how we actually show up when we can see that there is potential, there is hope or there is faith.

A hundred percent.

And also it creates this sense of helplessness, which is what I'm sort of talking about.

You know, why would I even bother trying, which is very disempowering and it keeps you playing as a victim, you know, which doesn't help anyone.

But also when you attribute a lot, you know, things that have happened in your life to luck, it builds gratitude.

And I think that's really important and also helps keep you humble as well.

You know, there are things in my life where I think, wow, this happened.

I'm so incredibly lucky.

I'm so incredibly grateful.

Things aren't lost on me that have happened in my life.

There is no doubt about it.

There are things that genuinely happen that are bad luck, like a job loss, getting sick, being in an accident, unexpected expenses.

But this is where that lack of buffers really does increase your exposure and your vulnerability.

And this is where things can spiral.

And, you know, it's really unfortunate.

So, you know, bad luck and not having a safety net can have a very dangerous, toxic domino effect.

You know, you get sick, so therefore you can't work.

You can't work, so you can't pay the rent.

You then have a risk of being evicted, which then obviously damages your tenancy records and even your credit record.

And then it's much harder to recover.
