The Psychology of Luck: How to Train Your Mind to Spot Opportunities
Have you ever wondered why some people always seem to be in the right place at the right time?
Is it just luck, or is there a psychological aspect behind it that we can learn from?
In this engaging event, we’ll explore how our minds shape the way we experience luck. Drawing from psychology, neuroscience, and real-life examples, we’ll uncover how beliefs, attention, emotions, and behaviour influence what we call “good fortune.”
We’ll talk about:- How the brain constructs meaning around random events
- Why some people feel lucky—and others don’t
- Practical strategies to train your “luck muscles”
- The role of intuition, gratitude, and relationships in attracting opportunities
- Luck as a skill—not just a coincidence
This is not about superstition. It’s about awareness.
It’s about how to stay open, present, and responsive to what life offers—especially when you least expect it.You don’t have to believe in luck. You need to be ready for it.
