I have a repeating to-do item in my Todoist: do something to increase luck.
To remind myself of the things I can do to get more lucky, I include the following subcategories:
- Do something nice/kind
- Meet someone new
- Show up (purposefully vague)
- Bring someone up (signal boost, advise, or otherwise help someone with less power than myself)
- Put myself or my work out there (submit something, publicly speak up, etc.)
Those subcategories have evolved somewhat since I first performed my 30-day luck experiment. I’ve picked items that mesh well with my personality and that are easily actionable.
Some people do these things naturally everyday without a second thought. But I’ve had to train myself, and I still consider myself a luck beginner.
