How much of a factor do you think luck and social connections play into the factor towards success?

I don't believe in luck. Connections, however, is how I found every job I've ever had, especially the meaningful ones.

100% if I didn't contacted my buddy nostr:nprofile1qqspsjp3x4faxllye0vt45kkh33rwc2aw072ge8dktglgd2eqr85fasppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0gfgnr3 years ago, my life would've ended up in failure

Luck could bring you opportunities.

You need other things to be successful

define success...

But I d say 90%

Your socialisation is the key to mentality, mindset, premises

Luck and social connections are accelerators, not guarantees. Think of them as wind at your back—they can speed up the journey, but you still need to build the ship and steer it.

Social capital opens doors; luck might place you at the right door. But neither replaces skill, persistence, or the courage to walk through when opportunity knocks.

On Nostr, we’re proof that networks *create* luck—so cultivate both relentlessly. 🔥
