This is a fantastic story by Paul Dickov about Jose Mourinho and the importance of remembering those who have helped you on the way up in life.

Never take anyone for granted.

A touch of class from Mourinho,

How to get lucky (without being rich):

Thought experiment: If you had to double your luck in 6 months, what would you do?

10 ideas:

1. Luck Razor - If given 2 options, pick the one that has the most luck potential. E.g. Cocktail party vs watching Netflix. Which one has the highest potential for future luck?

2. Avoid Boring People - Avoid people that bore you. And avoid being the boring person in the room. The more interesting you are, the more interesting opportunities people share with you.

3. Poker Mindset > Roulette Mindset - Ridiculous but true statement...

Playing a game of roulette thinking it's poker is better than playing a game of poker thinking it’s roulette. Assume everything is a game of skill. There's usually something you can control if you look hard enough.

4. Delete The Scoreboard - Relentlessly give to good people with no scoreboard in your head keeping track. You’ll end up lucky, fulfilled, and have a packed funeral.

5. Introduce People - If friend A and friend B can get value from each other - introduce them. It's a 30-second email for you and may change their lives forever. Networks are unique because they don't divide when you share them -- they multiply.

6. Get More Curious With Age - Curiosity is like your joints - it weakens with age. Assume your first thoughts about new trends are wrong. Age like Gary Vee or Mark Cuban. Put 20 hours into a new trend before you have an opinion.

7. Pursue High Leverage Relaxation - Rank all relaxation activities on this:

A. Impact
B. Time it takes

Find the highest leverage one across both scores. Do it regularly. It's hard to notice lucky opportunities when your cortisol is through the roof.

8. Get Good At Advertising - The ultimate meta-skill. If you can create a persuasive ad or landing page, you can create a persuasive CV or job interview.

Lifehack: Most people are awful at advertising.

9. Don’t wait for the news - Historians now recognize the Roman Empire fell in 476 - but it wasn't acknowledged by Roman society until many generations later.

If you wait for the media to inform you to do something, you'll either be wrong or too late.

Work from first principles. Trust your gut.

10. Reverse Prison Advice - The cliche prison advice to a new prisoner is to punch the biggest person in the prison. Flip this on its head.

Find the best people you know and help them as much as you can. (Share their projects, give feedback, make intro’s, etc)

----

The beautiful part of this thought experiment:

It moves your focus from the visible 99% of luck you can't control -- to the hidden 1% of luck you can control.

And that 1% can keep you busy enough for 99 lifetimes.
