Review title: A Penny for My Thoughts
Product review: I saw the author, Dr. Richard Wiseman, on television the day before yesterday and was intrigued, so I bought the book a couple of hours later. I've never particularly considered myself either lucky or unlucky. But I've always felt there was more to luck than mere chance. Wiseman posits just that point.This book reminds me a bit of Dale Carnegie's classic, How to Stop Worrying and Start Living. Carnegie's book was groundbreaking because at the time it was written there was hardly anything in the popular press about worryÑas opposed to today. Ha! Likewise, this may be a ground breaking book on the topic of luck. The author's style is similar to Carnegie'sÑeasy to read, upbeat, lots of anecdotes, and "principles" to follow. I especially enjoyed Dr. Wiseman's references to his earlier career as a magician.I'm going to follow the author's advice and keep a "Luck Journal" for the next thirty days. Thus far, one hour after finishing the book, I've found one penny on the sidewalk.
