Luck seems random and unpredictable, but Tina Seelig's message is that luck is something you can control and improve. And when you improve your luck, it will increase your creative potential. In this episode, we talk about Seelig's new book, What I Wish I Knew About Luck, and the mindsets and daily practices associated with luck and creativity.
Winning the lottery is pure chance, but that's not the kind of luck we're talking about. This episode doesn't tell you how to pick the winning number. Seelig's book is about how to live a life where luck consistently comes to you. We've often hear the cliche, "luck is when preparation meets opportunity." But what does it mean to prepare for luck? That's where Seelig's book comes in. She goes beyond the cliches to give you actionable advice.
