A friend recently gave me a helpful piece of advice: increase your surface area for serendipity.
In a world where success is a combination of talent, hard work, and luck—and usually more luck than we care to admit—creating moments where more luck can happen is important.
Staying in our shells, in our comfort zones, and within the safe confines of what we’ve always known reduces the chance we may meet someone, learn something, or try something that may change our lives for the better.
Whenever possible, increase your surface area for serendipity.
