I have thought about this luck issue from childhood and did experiment many things as I was really curious to solve this luck mystery. Following are the some of my attempts I made to understand this 'lady luck' and the findings;

MYTH 1: 'Some folks are just born lucky'

Also, I was getting bored of carrying same colour of handkerchief so that strategy didn't work very well.

But after few days, I finally found my lucky...
