Cuando te mantienes estático, tu probabilidad de que se produzca un acontecimiento afortunado se limita a tu \"superficie\" actual: las personas que ya conoces, los lugares a los que ya vas, las ideas a las que ya has estado expuesto. Tu ventana de oportunidades es fija.\n\nCuando te mueves, tu tasa de colisión con nuevos nodos en una red aumenta de forma no lineal. Duplica tu movimiento (nuevas conversaciones, nuevas ciudades, nuevos proyectos) y tu probabilidad de tener un encuentro fortuito *no* se duplica. Se **cuadruplica** aproximadamente. Porque cada nuevo nodo te conecta con toda su red, no solo con él.\n\n**Richard Wiseman** llevó a cabo un estudio de 10 años en la Universidad de Hertfordshire en el que hizo un seguimiento de personas que se autodefinían como \"afortunadas\" y \"desafortunada\". El factor diferenciador más importante no fue el coeficiente intelectual, la educación ni el dinero de la familia. Las personas afortunadas obtuvieron puntuaciones significativamente más altas en un rasgo: la apertura a la experiencia. Hablaban más con desconocidos, variaban más sus rutinas y aceptaban invitaciones casi el doble de veces.\n\nEl grupo \"desafortunado\" seguía las mismas rutas, comía en los mismos restaurantes y hablaba con las mismas 5 personas. Sus redes eran círculos cerrados. Sin nuevos estímulos, sin nuevos encuentros.\n\n**La suerte no es aleatoria. La suerte es superficie de contacto. Y la superficie de contacto es una función del movimiento.**\n","zR_G1xFKHazQQaXlqYSiiGHexdpq9YodVfFO9kEeVBU",1779906509722]
