“Good Luck” is the biological groundwork and lifestyle skills shaped by multiple factors, encompassing how well you perceive, access, and use available information, as well as elements of probability, psychology, philosophy, and the intentionality of choices.

1. “Blind luck” happens beyond your control or resutls from random events, such as winning the lottery or the outcome of universal randomness, such as when a golf ball ricochets off a tree for a hole-in-one, or when a tennis ball hits the net cord, balances for a split second, and fall on the other side for a point.

2. Luck from actions taken to create opportunities.

3. Luck comes from your preparation, which helps you recognize fortunate situations.

4. The rarest kind of Luck is the luck unique to you. You achieve this luck through right efforts, deliberate persistence, and sharp observational skills. (And its no surprise that education (whether through book smarts or street smarts) increases your luck.

On a broad level, experimental psychologist Richard Wiseman at the University of Hertfordshire in England studies the philosophical science of luck. Dr. Wiseman examines how luck affects people's lives in terms of “happiness and good fortune.” He has found that luck is closely linked to the concept of self-fulfilling happiness, whereas…

Happy (is) go lucky. 

In one of his studies, he separated people who identified as “lucky” and “unlucky." He asked each group to count the number of photographs in a newspaper as quickly as possible. He found that readers who perceived themselves as “unlucky” required more than 2 minutes to identify 43 photos, whereas the “lucky” group completed the task in just a few seconds. Only the “lucky” group noticed what was written on the second page of the newspaper…

 "Stop counting. There are 43 photographs in this newspaper." 

In another experiment, Professor Wiseman placed an even larger message halfway through the newspaper that announced, "Stop counting; tell the experimenter you have seen this ad and win $250." Once again, the “unlucky” participants missed the chance because they were too busy counting the photographs. Meanwhile, the "lucky" group received $250. 

So much for the old definition of luck: “preparation meets opportunity.” In this case, the opportunity goes unnoticed. These and other experiments show that individuals with low luck are less able to recognize opportunities, despite preparation.
