I've found that luck is quite predictable. If you want more luck, take more chances. Be more active. Show up more often.

Insight: We usually think of luck as something that happens to us—a random gift from the universe. But this reframing is quietly radical: luck isn't magical; it's mostly about positioning. When you're actively moving through the world, trying things, meeting people, starting projects, you're essentially buying more lottery tickets. The person who applies to twenty jobs doesn't get rejected by all of them. The person who goes to networking events regularly ends up knowing someone who knows someone. It's not destiny; it's just math. The tricky part is that this feels less romantic than waiting for your big break. It requires accepting that "luck" is often just preparation meeting opportunity—and that you're the one who has to keep showing up. This is actually liberating if you let it be. You're not powerless. You can't control whether a particular door opens, but you can absolutely control how many doors you knock on. Most people don't because it takes consistency, risk tolerance, and accepting a lot of small failures along the way. But that's the unsexy truth beneath every sudden-overnight-success story.
