In his book Chase, Chance, and Creativity, researcher James Austin breaks luck down into 4 types.
Dumb luck. The kind of luck you have zero control over, like finding a $20 bill on the ground.
Active luck. The more you do, the more possible moments of breakthrough you generate. It’s still chaotic, but at least you’re doing something.
Planned luck. When I see an article that does well on Medium, I can try to write something similar. With experience, you learn to spot lucky breakthroughs and can direct your own efforts towards manufacturing them.
Unique luck. This kind of luck is special. It comes from you building a unique reputation, character, and skillset, which then draws luck towards you.
