1. Pay attention to your surrounding; you won't spot good luck unless you look for it.
2. Strike up conversation with strangers. You might meet the love of your life or make an important business contact.
3. After you meet someone interesting, follow up with a note or phone call.
4. Stay relax, even in pressure situation; it'll help you be more aware.
5. Vary your routine everyday. Walk on the other side of the street, or try a new lunch spot.
6. Be aggressive about making changes you want. Still thinking about moving cross- country? Just go already.
7. Follow your hunches and gut feeling; many seemingly random occurrences are actually the result of good subconscious decisions.
8. Treat nagging doubts as alarm bells; they're often right, even if you can't pinpoint the reason.
9. Expect good fortune; if you think something's going to happen, you'll be more likely to spot it when it does.
10. Believe in lucky charms. A rabbit's foot doesn't have special powers, but the confidence it gives you is very powerful.
11. Smile. People will smile back, and suddenly you're off to a good start.
12. Outlast bad luck; often a negative turn of events creates unexpected opportunities for good results.

1. Get up on a stage and sing Whitney Houstons's version of 'I'm Every Woman'. If there's no stage, stand on the buffet table.
2. Scratch yourself uncontrollably and whisper to anyone who asks that you don't think medication is working, but not to worry, it's not contagious.
3. Squeeze the zits on your face.
4. Start a food fight. Don't worry if no one will join in, that just means there's more food for you to throw.
5. Don't shower a week before the party.
6. During the host's speech, start channeling Simon Cowell. Don't hold back on the insults.
7. If someone gives you a business card, tell them you only have a few slots left in your Rolodex and you're saving those for very important people.
8. If all else fails, remember that a rolled up pair of socks can be your best friend.

For Her

1. Arrange for a wardrobe malfunction to occur. The buffet line is a good place for this to happen.
2. Tell everyone how much your life has changed since the implants. But keep people guessing where those implants are.
3. Grab the biggest dish at the buffet table and bring the whole thing to your seat. Spend the rest of the party stuffing your face.
4. Start a little bonfire at your table with all the business cards that people give you.
5. If someone gives you a business card, throw a drink in their face while shouting," What kind of a girl do you think I am?"
6. Walk around the room with a candle while whispering loudly," Hello? Is anyone there?"
7. Show up in a white bathrobe with a huge black wig, green mascara and white face paint and tells everyone that you just finished filming Memoirs of a Geisha.
8. If all else fails, remember that two rolled up pairs of socks can be your best friends.

With that I end off with something funny:

The children were lined up in a cafeteria of a Catholic elementary school for lunch. At the head of the table, there were a large pile of apples.

A nun made a note and posted it on the apple tray:" Take only one, God is watching."

Further along the line, at the other end of the table, was a large pile of chocolate chip cookies.

A child had written a note:" Take all you want; God is watching the apples."
