Okay, enough pre-talk lets get started. It's that time of the year again - football and basketball season.
Fans are anxious about how many games their team will win this year.
But I'm concern about how many consecutive games in a row they will win or how many consecutive games in a row they will lose.
By tracking and measuring the results, I've learned how to make the magic of lucky streaks work in business and in every aspect of my life.
No, I'm not a professional sports gambler like Billy Walters, who made millions by using the magic of lucky streaks.
I discovered that Lucky Streaks occur every where and in every business
activity or repeated sequence of events: the stock market, casino,sports, card games, monopoly, lottery, and even professions like; dentists, surgeons, attorneys, and actors.
Everyday people have streaks of good and bad things that happen. But most people never pay much attention to such things, and it would be unheard of for someone to keep records of their daily events.
Well, that's exactly what you have to do if you want to benefit from the magic of lucky streaks.
You must write down every time a negative event occurs in
your life (anything that causes you physical pain or disturbance of mind)
and write down all the good events that occur. Anything that causes you pleasure or piece of mind)
You must keep records for 60 days like a journal with date and time.

You are looking for patterns that show when you have a string of
bad events in a row that something positive is about to happen.
On average, a person has 2 or 3 strings of good or bad events that occur in a row.
Your human mind and body couldn't emotionally handle a string of 10 negative events in a row on a consistent basis; and your ego couldn't handle 10 positive events in a row. Too many wins make you feel invincible that lead to carelessness, and too many negative events lead to depression.But either way, your quest is to discover your string or pattern.
The Universal Pattern that Governs the World.
80/20 Rule
Eighty per cent of the time you will have one event negative and the next occurrence will be positive.
Streaks of negative or positive events happen 20% of the time. The average streak lasts 4 consecutive times in a row.
Read the above line again and make a mental note.
What can you do with such valuable information?
It's like having the key to the Matrix.
Mary Jane won 25K playing BlackJack because she gradually increased her bets as the consecutive losing streaks increased; at five losing hands in a row she doubled the bet size every other hand. Why? Because the longest recorded winning or losing streak on record in Blackjack was 12 hands in a row. That's pretty much the benchmark for any consecutive streaks. To have 12 wins or losses in a row of anything is pretty remarkable and rare. Flip a coin and see the results, or record the first twelve things that happen in your personal life and determine how many were good and bad.
Now most people who are ignorant of this magnificent pattern, do just the opposite. They bet big when they're on a winning streak, not realizing that's when they're at the biggest risk of losing. Because with each winning hand you are closer to losing. Remember 80% of the time when you win one hand then the next hand you lose. So you must anticipate and bet on winning or losing streaks and not on the event itself, unless it involved a thorough analysis of past performance.
Classic Example
Wichita State #1 seed, was the only undefeated team in the 2014 NCAA Tournament and lost in the final seconds to Kentucky #8 seed. Why, did they lose? They had won 35 games in a row --it was time for the STREAK to end. You should have placed your bet on Kentucky because Wichita State had 35 consecutive wins. With each win, Wichita State was getting closer to a loss. So, each game you would bet that they would lose, and gradually increase your bet every time they won. Get the point?
Let's look at another way--80% of the time when you win one sequential event then expect to lose the next event. (Hand, game, thing, or whatever you want to call it.) And if you have one bad thing happen to you, then expect the next thing that happens to be something good. Folks, it happens 80% of the time that way--prove it yourself- keep a journal. I'm not here to try and convince you. I'm just trying to make you aware--the rest is up to you.
This strange phenomenal pattern holds true with events that occur in any business or everyday life.
You will have something bad happen like your car breaks down and then the next thing that happens is your boss gives you a raise. Eighty Percent of the time that's pattern--one good thing and then something bad or the reverse.
Here's the Secret
Professional gamblers bet on streaks and learn how to anticipate them.
Lucky streaks occur 20% of the time --streaks of consecutive good or bad things that happen everyday, whether in your personal or business life that causes joy and pain.
When you have 3 bad things occur consecutively-- know that you are closer to something good happening. And if you have had a series of wonderful things happen to you then expect something's not to your liking is about to happen.
Just like the sun rises in the East and sets in the West and the birds fly South and the Salmon swim upstream to spawn, there is a pattern in your personal and business life. Knowing this information, you can predict or anticipate any situation better giving you a competitive edge or peace of mind that good and bad things will always happen.
Scientists have used the Pattern strategy to make some amazing discoveries.
“Negative results are just what I want. They’re just as valuable to me as positive results. It's the only way to find what works!" Thomas Edison
Results? Why, man, I have gotten lots of results! If I find 10,000 ways something won't work, I haven't failed. I am not discouraged, because every wrong attempt discarded is often a step forward.... Thomas Edison
Adversity is your friend and success is your enemy -- because you didn't know it was through a series of lucky streaks or events that got you there in the first place.
