Many years ago, like maybe in the 1920s, the randomness of success in life was the focus of popular interest sufficiently to inspire scholarly research. I think it was mostly history professors who collected case studies of "lucky" people and tried to find patterns. I don't know how many publications resulted, but I read two or three books.

The books generally provided lists of observed patterns, usually at least a half dozen but sometimes a few times that. My takeaway from that reading was three general principles.

1. Location: The kind of events that you would consider relevant luck are not evenly distributed geographically. You need to be where they happen more often.

2. Preparation: At those locations, there will probably be multiple candidates waiting to take advantage of an opportunity. You need to aim to be the best candidate.

3. Flexibility: Your expectations for desirable opportunities have been molded by your limited knowledge of the world. You need to be ready to pursue opportunities that weren't exactly what you had in mind but may turn out to be just as satisfying.

TFA is hard to comment on because it feels like a rough draft. The reasoning could be sharpened. I have reservations about the "air your weirdness", because it seems to contradict the principle of flexibility.
