Catching a train when you’re running late might be a matter of luck. But there are important foundations you need in order to be lucky.
You can rush, scramble, and race – but if you arrive at the wrong location it doesn’t matter if you got there on time. Likewise, even if you make it you’re not getting on the train without a ticket.
In order to be lucky, you need to be where the train is, and you need to have what the train wants. Luck is just a little icing on top.
