How to Create Luck
Why luck is not random & how to create it effortlessly.
Do you know why most men never get lucky?
It’s because they think it’s out of their control.
They think it’s random chance...
So what do they do?
They put money into stupid crypto projects thinking they will be a millionaire overnight.
They using dating apps, swiping for days, without finding a single woman of quality.
They apply to hundreds of jobs online praying someone notices their resume.
And why do they do this?
It’s because they let life happen to them.
They take the passive approach....
Waiting for luck to find them. But that’s NOT how being lucky works.
Real luck? It’s engineered.
THE PROOF:
Sean Connery: Milkman to 007.
Sean Connery was nobody. Edinburgh slums.
Polishing coffins. Delivering milk while the world moved without him.
He engineered his luck.
Mr. Connery leveraged his fitness to place 3rd at Mr. Universe (bodybuilding competition was embarrassingly low compared to 2025).
Theatre scouts noticed.
He turned visibility into auditions. 200+ failures. One yes.
That yes?
The role of James Bond. 007.
Aristotle Onassis: Business Tycoon.
Aristotle Onassis fled Greece as a refugee. His family lost everything.
He arrived in Buenos Aires broke.
He engineered the ascent.
Worked as a night telephone operator.
Listened to business calls.
Started his own tobacco brand.
Seduced a famous opera singer to smoke his cigarettes in public. High society followed. Original influencer marketing.
Millionaire in his 20s. Used those millions to buy distressed ships during the Depression. Built the world’s largest tanker empire.
What’s the lesson? Luck can be created…. Here’s how to do it in the modern world:
1: LEVERAGE THE INTERNET
The internet is a double edged sword.
On one hand, it can be a huge waste of time & a distraction.
But, if used correctly, it will change your life for the better. Social media isn’t about likes & going “viral”.
It’s the modern day business card.
Treat social media as a magnet... if you produce poor quality work, you will attract poor quality people.
Stop trying to get things out of people. If you can help someone, do it, but don’t expect anything in return.
Aesthetics & presentation matters. Your social media should exude professionalism.
Social media can change your life, intro you to business partners & create a global network if used intelligently.
2: GET OUT OF YOUR HOUSE
You will not create luck being cooped up in 4 walls everyday.
The average 9-5 worker sees the same 10 people for 40 years straight... And wonders why no unique opportunities ever cross their desk.
Your network is static.
Your routine is static.
Your luck is nonexistent.
Winners operate differently.
They go to venues where capable people actually are. They’re mentally present - no headphones, no phone, eyes up.
They chat up the bartender. The guy at the coffee shop. The person at the gym.
Every interaction is a potential luck creating opportunity.
3: BUILD EXTREME COMPETENCE
The worst advice currently circulating the internet is ‘document your journey’.
If you’re a novice, no one cares (respectfully).
You must dedicate years to crafting skills valuable to the marketplace.
The ability to sell.
The ability to build products.
The ability to attract the right kind of attention.
If you can do this, you will never be broke again.
You will never have to force yourself to ‘network’ - the opportunities will come to you.
4: HIGH LEISURE ACTIVITES
Don’t force it. Choose hobbies you actually want to do.
But pick wisely.
Choosing high leisure activities allow you to meet men of high calibre:
Tennis
Golf
Shooting sports
Martial arts
Men bond through shared interests & competition, and missions.
Not small talk at networking events. Not forced conversations at dive bars.
Rolling on the mats. Competing on the course. Training together.
Pushing each other.
You’ll build a network of elite men without even trying.
LETHAL GENTLEMEN CREATE LUCK.
Luck can be engineered.
Leverage the internet (it’s the entire reason you’re reading this article).
Get out of your house & move molecules, paint shots and have conversations.
Constantly refine your skills, become a valuable member of society & give without expectation of return.
Enjoy high leisure activities, go on that ski trip, join that martial arts gym…
It’s impossible to not get closer to where you want to be by doing these 4 things.
If you want to start your journey & become a Lethal Gentleman, START HERE.

I think the disease of modernity is the masculine has lost its meaning without realizing a substitution. We are social animals and we crave social recognitions. We are desperate for being needed by others (especially of the feminine). It's biological. Anyways, thanks for sharing, Jack, will try some out :)
