Before a major shift in luck occurs, there are usually some signs.

The Book of Changes (I Ching) says: "Fortune's danger lies in movement; those who foresee good luck are also aware of this."
Before a major change in luck arrives, signs of movement will appear in advance. These signs are definitely not superstitions like encountering magpies when going out or an itchy left eye indicating wealth, but rather the evolution of your mindset, cognition, and behavioral patterns. You will go through four core stages in succession.
First stage: Social shielding period.
You begin to become indifferent, unwilling to conform, no longer posting social updates, speaking less in groups, preferring solitude, and feeling exhausted even when explaining bad people or bad things, preferring to block directly. This corresponds to the psychological "Cognitive Load Theory" and the Taoist saying "Talking too much exhausts the mind; it is better to keep to the middle." During low points, energy is extremely scarce; superficial greetings will drain you wildly. You proactively build an energy barrier, give up meaningless socializing, and focus your limited energy on yourself, accumulating the capital for a rebound. This is not avoidance, but a realization that without chips, knowing anyone is useless.
Second stage: Internal reflection period.
You will gradually lose the desire to complain and learn to keep quiet and accept responsibility. In the past, when wronged, you wanted to post on social media or confide in friends; now, you get used to swallowing grievances silently. The Mencius says, "When actions are unsuccessful, seek within oneself." You finally understand that complaining in desperate situations is useless, so you start to look for problems within yourself, completely abandoning the victim mentality. Complaining outwardly is waiting for others to give you justice; you are still weak. Only when you dare to admit that being fooled was due to your poor judgment, and losing money was due to your lack of understanding, will your internal drive truly grow. When this happens, the major luck is not far behind.
Third stage: Focused point period.
You will start to become somewhat "clumsy." Previously, you were extremely anxious, always chasing trends and looking for shortcuts. Today, you want to do social media, tomorrow you want to set up a stall and sell goods, trying to make money everywhere; now, you suddenly become "honest," quietly choosing one unremarkable, even somewhat cumbersome task, closing the door and relentlessly sticking to it. The Taoist saying "Less is gained; more is trouble" finally makes sense to you. You give up the restlessness of "digging shallow pits everywhere" and choose to "stare fixedly at a well and hit downward with force," making your strength more concentrated and penetrating, walking more steadily and farther.
Fourth stage, and the most core stage: Inner stability period.
You begin to truly "allow everything to happen." Even when faced with sudden setbacks—such as upcoming bad debts or a client who suddenly cancels—the heart remains calm. You eat when hungry, sleep when tired, and focus solely on thinking about how to straighten out the mess and solve problems. This corresponds to clinical psychology's "Radical Acceptance" and Zhuangzi's saying "Knowing it cannot be changed, accept it as fate." This calmness is not giving up, but after experiencing countless hardships, your core has become completely stable. You have done your best in human affairs and accepted all the uncertainties of fate. No matter how bad the outcome, you no longer fear it. Nothing can trip you up.
After reading these four stages, you will see the truth clearly.
The so-called turning point in luck has never been about good fortune falling from the sky; it is a process of peeling skin and cramping self-reconstruction—it's you personally killing off the old self that loves face, complains, is restless, and full of dependence, rising from the ruins to become a highly aware, cold, pragmatic, and internally stable new self. The luck you have been desperately seeking has always been within yourself.
