Puzzle 1: The Probability Slider

To understand luck, first understand probability. Move the slider to where you think represents the perfect balance between "Pure Chance" and "Skilled Action".

Luck, probabilities, and success are all information games. You don't often have all, or even most of the variables. So how do you create consistent success or better odds (luck) in an information desert?

Faith! And I don't mean in religion, I mean in math. The understanding that, if you continue trying for an infinite amount of time, you will achieve an infinite amount of results.

In thinking and action and love, the most fatal move you can make is not moving. Sure, unforced errors are possible from trying too hard, but inaction is guaranteed to cause failure when applied incorrectly.

The most important thing you can do is recognize what you can control and what you can't.

Puzzle 2: Finding Patterns

Success often comes from recognizing patterns. Recreate the winning pattern by clicking the cells.

Understanding Control and Measurement

Because what you can control you can measure and quantifiably improve. Perhaps not just with your own perspective, but with the help of others and tools - like writing down thoughts and habits and being able to analyze them - or using a device like the Thoughtclock.

Once you've already meditated on your own imagination and abilities and you have done the 'work' of establishing what the situation is, then you can determine your odds to find if you are able of (END) enduring long enough to find a successful probability, and if you are able to survive/manage failure.

By using the Chakras Stat's system, you can start to find what or how to think that will fit your situation and abilities.

Puzzle 3: The Pattern of Probability

Watch the flowing particles carefully. Can you determine which color is truly dominant? Or is there a deeper pattern at play?

The Quantum Nature of Success

In fact, just by measuring the meta you create it and change it. Abstract quantum physics stuff. So to reiterate, you want to figure out what tools you have and which ones you think you can use to be effective in any given scenario.

If determined atoms can leap through their quantum bounds, so can you if you are able to make enough attempts at the right angle and temperature conditions. You just need to summon enough energy- excite yourself! Leap for joy and shout for pleasure.

The biggest variable in your control is almost always you, your imagination and chosen reaction to said imagination.
