i’m a magnet for success.

Watch how second chances get handed out at work. They go to whoever answered the last message, finished the last thing, and didn't need chasing. Not the most brilliant person in the building. The most findable one. Opportunity looks like luck from outside, because the previous eighteen months of quiet reliability aren't visible in the moment it lands.

Attraction, in that sense, is a reputation running slightly ahead of you into rooms you are not in. It is built out of unremarkable behaviour, repeated, and it does most of its work while you are asleep.
