Making Felix Felicis

Bring your wand and potions ingredients, because we're going to make liquid luck! In my career, I've worked extremely hard, but I've also experienced a lot of what some might call "luck." Some of what I've done is reproducible, and some of it is not. But I've learned a lot about how to increase my "luck surface area" and then make the most of the opportunities that come my way. In this talk, I'll share the ingredients I've used to make my own luck, and I hope it can help you make yours. Don't forget to bring your spell book!
