It’s a time-honored truth that we make ourselves miserable trying to change things we can’t. But as Karla Starr shows, many of the things we don't bother trying to control – because we assume they’re a matter of luck – are actually subject to strategy. Luckily for you, this insightful and frequently hilarious book is the perfect guide to understanding how.

I don't know when I've been so wowed by a new author.  Karla Starr explains how "lucky" can be learned using credible social science and captivating stories, leavened with keen humor that had me laughing on a plane (apologies to the guy in 6A!).

Getting lucky is not about luck. It’s about being prepared and having the right attitude. Based on years of research and decades of hard-won experience, Karla Starr reveals how to navigate social judgment, find your own hidden talents, and “kick ass” at life—all with wisdom and humor.
