Weird premise. This article is describing ways to get people to like you and ways to create new life connections, not ways for random chance to favor you. Luck isn't controllable.

If I'm a middle-class white guy and my uncle owns a Fortune 500, and he hires me because he knows my Dad (despite me having no experience or skills), and I work my way up the ranks and become an executive, getting hired wasn't lucky.

If, as an executive, I'm going on a business trip, and I miss my flight because of a car accident in front of my taxi, and the flight I was going to take ends up crashing, not being on the flight was lucky.
