Luck isn’t random. It’s manufactured.

Most people explain success with luck because it’s easier than admitting they didn’t put themselves where luck could see them.
Real talk
The winners you admire aren’t fortune’s favorites
They’re collision engineers
They manufacture luck by doing work that matters
showing that work where it counts
and making clear asks so opportunities have somewhere to land
Call it what it is
Luck Surface Area
the amount of chance you earn by how often you ship
how visible you are
and how specific your ask is
Here’s a simple working formula
Luck Surface Area = Proof × Visibility × Frequency × Clarity
Proof your receipts
shipped projects
case studies
outcomesVisibility your distribution
audience
rooms
circlesFrequency your reps
how often you appearClarity your ask
the exact door you want opened
Increase any variable and luck grows
Increase all four and it snowballs
This isn’t theory
It’s a practical operating system you can install this week
