Day 486 - May goals - https://golifelog.com/posts/may-goals-1651376244985

April was a good, promising month. Let’s make May even better and brighter.

I’ve been following my curiosity and creative energy for March and April, chasing opportunities to good results.

I asked about how to switch on the opportunist eye as a default mode. The conclusion then was that I needed to break routine intentionally, get out of comfort zone in small ways more often.

I explored how to better spot opportunities. The non-obvious traits of good opportunities were: 1) non-routine, 2) potential for scale, 3) inspiration-based.

I want to keep going and explore this theme that’s at the intersection of complexity, chance, curiosity, and chasing opportunities.

In summary, luck.

Or how to be lucky.

I recalled I’d read a book on luck before, and wrote good notes on it. The book is How Luck Happens: Using the Science of Luck to Transform Work, Love, and Life, by Janice Kaplan and Barnaby Marsh.

These notes will be a useful guide for me to experiment with in May. Will share more notes in the days to come.

So… 30 days on how to be lucky.

A #30daysofluck challenge.
