Great one Sahil! Reminds me of a very similar line of thought on serendipity. A business owner had once told me, “it took me almost a year of work to serendipitously run into my biggest potential client.”
Great concepts. I would add "belief" in there as well. To believe you can do something, or to believe you have already accomplished something is very powerful. I played baseball in college as well, and if I understood this concept then, I would have had better results. I'm sure of it.
Sahil, I couldn't agree more. Luck and serendipity CAN be engineered. I especially love the idea of "increasing your luck surface area" (Packy McCormick and Jason Roberts have also mentioned this concept in their writings). This is a topic I've been writing about for some time now. I just riffed off of your article here in my CATALYST newsletter: https://ckarchive.com/b/8kuqhoh47g6n
Phenomenal. Concise and applicable to basically anyone. Habits like these have carried me far, and I’m hoping to add more of these to my tool belt.
This was truly helpful. More power to you.

Now I reach out to more people to make more connections
