Beware the survivorship/selection bias, the subjective interpretation, and misunderstanding that the recommended ‘lucky’ practices, while they can ‘work’, are simply common sense behaviors to increase one’s connections (and therefore chances at ‘lucky’ inter, ramp up one’s perserverance/persistance, to look for and leverage positive interpretations of events. (e.g. “I got shot in arm during robbery”. Unlucky take: “Why did I have to get shot? Ouch, it hurts” Lucky take: “I could have died. I am so fortunate”) and since “believing is seeing” to engage in positive imagery. Etc.

Wiseman’s books are fun, super easy to read and profitably skimmable. Recommended.
