Interestingly, they also listened to their gut more.

In fact, almost 90% of the people he studied who described themselves as lucky said that they trusted their intuition in past relationships.
matched
And nearly 80% said it also played a vital role in their career decisions as well.
matched
Then there's optimism.
matched
He found that lucky people genuinely expect good things to happen, which means they try more things, they push through setbacks, and they persist when unlucky people are more likely to give up.
matched
And then finally, when things do go wrong, lucky people handle it differently.
matched
They do not dwell on bad luck.
matched
They look for the lesson, they stay constructive, they move forward faster.
matched
And what I love about all of this is that none of it is innate.

He was actually able to make self-described unlucky people luckier by having them practice these four things, which makes all of this incredibly actionable and something that you can actually learn from, even if maybe you are more naturally a glass half empty person.

And I think all of this is a nuanced chat to have and it comes with a lot of conditions.
matched
And so today I really wanted to have a conversation about how we can think about luck and a few things we can actually all do to make ourselves luckier, to bring together the scientific side of things and the more woo-woo manifestation side as well that I know so many people rely on.

Okay, so the first framework I want to walk you through comes from Alexa Rose's substack piece.
matched
This is the piece I mentioned at the start of this video, and she calls it the luck surface area scorecard.
matched
A quick bit of context, though, because I went down a bit of a rabbit hole on this.
matched
The actual term luck surface area was coined by a guy called Jason Roberts in 2010.
matched
His original idea was basically that the amount of luck you have equals what you do, multiplied by what you tell people about.
matched
Alexa has absorbed that idea and made it actually really actionable, which I love.
