The more I work on my mental health, the more I realize it's the base of literally everything. Working on my attachment style, my anxiety, etc. which are all intermingled, it made me more secure, confident, step outside my comfort zone more and more, more chance encounters, more meeting people and more opportunities for fun. "luck" For people who had the personality + upbringing to be secure and relaxed in life, are already set up. For those of us who had to work on it, and continue to work on it every single day, it's possible, it's not easy ohhhh it's not easy, but it's possible.

Someone once told me that āluckā is when preparation meets opportunity. Itās also related to the āProximity Principleā.

Coincidentally, the four principles listed in this video are the core of nurturing Mental Toughness. Mindset matters!

Been subscribed to Ali's channel for over two years and I must say this channel has been the greatest ROI on my time. It really is just so amazing how he distills concepts so easily! Thanks Ali and team!

Luck is not something you have, Luck is something you make out of opportunities. That is what I believe in.

How I see it, people are more "lucky" if they have more opportunities. By doing more and challenging yourself more, you get more opportunities and thus have more lucky moments but equally unlucky moments you set yourself over.

Setting goals also makes you keep track of your progress which is really valuable. Tracking helps evaluate your own behavior and adjust/do more of what is working.
