  • Unlucky people miss chance opportunities because they are too focused on looking for something else. They go to parties intent on finding their perfect partner and so miss opportunities to make good friends. They look through newspapers determined to find certain types of job advertisements and as a result miss other types of jobs. Lucky people are more relaxed and open, and therefore see what is there rather than just what they are looking for.

  • In software, consultants sometimes tell you to buy into certain software-development methods to the exclusion of other methods.

In some instances, you’ll miss opportunities to use other methods better suited to your current problem.
