Hi All,

I got the 485 approval emails for spouse and myself today around 6 p.m. (My 140 was approved about 3 weeks back)

Thanks to everyone in this forum who helped me (sometimes scared me) with their valuable comments.

Compaired to a lot of folks out there, my GC process is very short and lasted 14 months and 8 days right from the first day of LC filing.

Thanks again.

Please look at my signature for details.

congratulations!!! compguy222

can you tell us what is your EB category EB1, EB2, EB3??
if EB3 are you from the country affected by retrogression??

this will help us to find USCIS trend...
 
Thanks everybody.

I don't really believe in luck and never got anything before by luck. But I think its time to reconsider my belief.

I am EB3. But not affected by retrogression because I am not from India, China or the Philippines.

Thanks again

:D :D :D All you need to know about Luck...... :D

I wanted to know why some people are always in the right place at the right time, while others consistently experience ill fortune.

I placed advertisements in national newspapers asking for people who felt consistently lucky or unlucky to contact me.

Hundreds of extraordinary men and women volunteered for my research and, over the years, I have interviewed them, monitored their lives and had them take part in experiments.


Professor Wiseman's top tips

The results reveal that although these people have almost no insight into the causes of their luck, their thoughts and behaviour are responsible for much of their good and bad fortune.

Those who have succeeded at anything and don't mention luck are kidding themselves

Larry King
Take the case of seemingly chance opportunities. Lucky people consistently encounter such opportunities, whereas unlucky people do not.

I carried out a simple experiment to discover whether this was due to differences in their ability to spot such opportunities.

I gave both lucky and unlucky people a newspaper, and asked them to look through it and tell me how many photographs were inside.


Professor Wiseman's formula came too late for some...
I had secretly placed a large message halfway through the newspaper saying: "Tell the experimenter you have seen this and win £250."

This message took up half of the page and was written in type that was more than two inches high.

Anxiety

It was staring everyone straight in the face, but the unlucky people tended to miss it and the lucky people tended to spot it.

Everything in life is luck

Donald Trump
Unlucky people are generally more tense than lucky people, and this anxiety disrupts their ability to notice the unexpected.

As a result, they miss 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 miss other types of jobs.

Self-fulfilling prophecies

Lucky people are more relaxed and open, and therefore see what is there rather than just what they are looking for.

Luck is believing you're lucky

Tennessee Williams
My research eventually revealed that lucky people generate good fortune via four 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.

Towards the end of the work, I wondered whether these principles could be used to create good luck.

I asked a group of volunteers to spend a month carrying out exercises designed to help them think and behave like a lucky person.

Dramatic results

These exercises helped them spot chance opportunities, listen to their intuition, expect to be lucky, and be more resilient to bad luck.

I am a great believer in luck, and I find the harder I work, the more I have of it

Thomas Jefferson
One month later, the volunteers returned and described what had happened. The results were dramatic: 80% of people were now happier, more satisfied with their lives and, perhaps most important of all, luckier.

The lucky people had become even luckier and the unlucky had become lucky.

Finally, I had found the elusive "luck factor" .


Here are Professor Wiseman's four top tips for becoming lucky:


Listen to your gut instincts - they are normally right

Be open to new experiences and breaking your normal routine

Spend a few moments each day remembering things that went well

Visualise yourself being lucky before an important meeting or telephone call. Luck is very often a self-fulfilling prophecy

Good piece of reading but.....

I consider winning a lottery is luck. Spotting the right advert and the right opportunities is not luck but that person's smartness. Not everybody is smart like the other.

So do you think that I felt lucky one day and bought Lotto. Do you think I sure to win? No way. There is a lot of differences between pure luck and smartness.
 
Unluck is to have to deal with TSC

One should not need luck to get a straightforward application done in two years.
