The bestselling author of What I Wish I Knew When I Was 20's engaging and practical guide to how to become lucky, based on her classes at Stanford University and her popular TED talk. 

Much of what we call luck is the result of deliberate actions and consistent efforts. As Tina Seelig shared in her popular TED Talk, luck is like the wind, constantly blowing, often unpredictable, and always in motion. To catch the winds of luck, you need to construct your sail by doing the internal work that sets the stage for success; recruit your crew by bringing others along; and hoist your sail by acting in ways that lead you closer to your goals. With these practical tools in hand, the winds of luck carry you toward the future you dream to live. 

What I Wish I Knew About Luck is filled with memorable examples, personal anecdotes, and behavioral science research. You will learn:



how to stay steady in turbulent waters
how to sail past your limits
how to see problems as opportunities
how to build ladders to larger wins
how to clear clutter on your path to success
how to turn setbacks into stepping stones
how luck is amplified over the course of a lifetime

As a professor at Stanford University, with expertise on leadership, entrepreneurship, and innovation, Dr. Seelig teaches her students how to see and seize opportunities, especially those hidden in plain sight. Opportunities are everywhere, waiting to be discovered!

Tina Seelig has taught at Stanford University for more than 25 years. She is Executive Director of Knight-Hennessy Scholars, a highly-selective leadership program for 300 graduate students across Stanford University, and Director Emerita of the Stanford Technology Ventures Program, the entrepreneurship center at Stanford School of Engineering. She teaches courses in the Hasso Plattner Institute of Design (d.school) and has led several fellowship programs in the School of Engineering that are focused on creativity, innovation, leadership, and entrepreneurship. Dr. Seelig earned her PhD in Neuroscience at Stanford Medical School, and has been a management consultant, entrepreneur, and author of 17 books, including inGenius, Creativity Rules, and What I Wish I Knew When I Was 20. Her TED talk on luck has been viewed over 3.4 million times; and based on her classes on creative problem solving, Dr. Seelig was the subject of a 10-part television series in Japan, produced by NHK. She is the recipient of the Gordon Prize from the National Academy of Engineering, the Olympus Innovation Award, the Silicon Valley Visionary Award, and the Global Consortium of Entrepreneurship Centers Legacy Award.
