My comment
After watching the video, I realized that luck is always around us. However, if you want to increase luck, you need to do something different. First, get out of your comfort zone and take some risks, try something that you are afraid of before. Second, say thank you to people who have helped you, an easy word may let you have a great relationship with people and may also bring some unexpected opportunities to you. Last, ideas are neither good or bad, sometimes that bad ideas may change into remarkable ideas, so what you should do is to turn it into something brilliant with your creativity.
I start to try these things that Tina Seelig have shared. Even if sometimes I don't adapt very well, I make an effort to catch the wind of luck and hope that I can further from luck someday.💪💪
This is quite an inspiring talk. I'm glad you have tried to do what Tina suggested. Good luck, Lily.
