You will not become lucky without hard work.
That seems to be the official answer.
I discovered my passion, created the Unity Project, created numerous drawings in pen-and-ink, not to mention being an honors student and earning a scholarship and some other awards and starting my own website featuring my further passion for inventing, before I found any four-leaf clovers.
For someone else, they might discover sex, or an inheritance, or a lucky magic power. But for me it had to be literally the clovers, because I was fairly unlucky, although rather fortunate, to begin with.
NOTES:
There are many people who are for example, very wealthy, but depressed or disabled, or who are very lucky, but constantly encountering hardship.
Luck and fortune are not the same thing.
You can have luck at every level of Fortune’s Wheel.
Sometimes the luckiest things are actually experienced at the bottom, but if all you have is luck at the top, you don’t do very well.
On the other hand, fortune is often hard-bought, whereas extreme luck is just very rare.
So, the formula for fortune is to use yourself up. The formula for luck is to be exceptional.
Also, strategy pays off for fortune, but luck can disappear through carelessness. And both of them may show themselves in ways you may not always appreciate, but luck is usually far more obvious, at least from the outside.
From the outside luck looks like everything. And from the inside fortune is miserable. However, fortune is the way to change your life.
