“

And so it is with luck - unlucky people miss chance opportunities because they are too focused on looking for something else. They go to parties intent on finding their perfect partner and so miss opportunities to make good friends. They look through newspapers determined to find certain types of job advertisements and as a result miss other types of jobs. Lucky people are more relaxed and open, and therefore see what is there rather than just what they are looking for.

My research revealed that lucky people generate good fortune via four basic principles. They are skilled at creating and noticing chance opportunities, make lucky decisions by listening to their intuition, create self-fulfilling prophesies via positive expectations, and adopt a resilient attitude that transforms bad luck into good.

West Wing told it as the story of PT Barnum selling a bunch of white salmon with the tagline “guaranteed not to go pink in the can.” But the real source is unknown.

I made an instructable about a simple way to gather dripping water from a leaky ceiling using scotch tape and a bottle. The idea is simple enough to be understood just by watching the video.

File this under things I’ll never get around to doing…

The idea would be to get a hundred or so people with iphones to stand in a line and walk in one direction… a custom iphone app would use gps and tell them when to stomp on the grass/snow… or however you impart contrast on the ground. they would collectively print out a big image. this also works for stadium displays using big colored pixels.

Announcing i365 Workout of the Day for the iPhone

Friends, I need your help! CC and I have launched our first iPhone application for sale, a tool that recommends a no-gym-requierd workout routine for every day of the year.

With this app, I’ve compiled over 10 years of study, practice, and fitness education into an easy to follow program that is about 500x cheaper than joining a gym—the app only costs $.99!

In order for us to gain momentum on the app store, it’s critical for us to get a bunch of downloads our first day on the market. Please buy the app and write a review today! Tell all your friends about the app, tweet this, reblog it, share it on Facebook! If you tweet me about the app after you’ve bought it, I will hunt you down and buy you a beer (the calories of which you will now easily be able to work off).

To recap, buy the app for $1 and I will buy you a beer in NYC—you’ll profit like 5 bucks!

Even if you’re already a member of a gym, or if you already do a program like Crossfit, you’ll still want to get the app because these are great workouts for the hotel room or the days you can’t drag yourself to the gym. Please help!

* * For the Entrepreneurs and Publishers
If you’re thinking this app is a bit trivial, I partially agree—this is a simple, content based application. However, CC and I did a bit of planning going into this and are happy to also announce the i365 Publishing Platform for iPhone. You know those tear away calendars you see in the bookstore, the ones with a comic or sex position for every day of the year? We now have a way to publish this type of content easily to the iPhone.

If you have ideas / content, all you need to do is deliver us an Excel (or other structured data) file with your 365 items and we can sell that content on the iPhone marketplace. I’m not going to lie—it was harder than I thought to write 365 pieces of unique content. It’s doable, though, so get your content—365 zen quotes, 365 recipes, 365 green tips, 365 whatever—and we’ll help you build an app.

One last time:
* Every review helps
* Every download helps

Thanks in advance for your help and don’t forget to Tweet me or write on my Facebook Wall if I owe you a beer!
