587. How to Get Lucky: The Science and Strategy of Creating Opportunity

No Days Off with Brian Gubernick

Brian Gubernick breaks down the truth about luck: it’s not a random stroke of fortune, it’s a strategic advantage you can build.

Inspired by Naval Ravikant and the original framework from neurologist James Austin, Brian unpacks the four types of luck — blind luck, hustle-driven luck, luck from preparation, and luck from reputation — and shows you exactly how high performers engineer their own “luck.”

You’ll learn: - Why motion creates momentum (and opportunity) - How mastering your craft sharpens your lens for spotting unseen wins - The role your character plays in attracting deals and relationships - Why “I never get lucky” is the language of defeat — and what to say instead

If you’ve been waiting for a break, this is your wake-up call. Luck doesn’t find people who wait — it scales to those who show up, especially those who show up daily.
