In The Formula for Luck, not only does Lacey prove that luck can be learned and its effects multiplied by regular practice, but he theorizes the precise way in which the Luck Mindset functions as a component part of a larger Formula for Luck. With that formula, Lacey gives us the tools for measuring our personal progress as well as incorporating and increasing luck in our work environments and in our communities at large.
