Bias towards action. Grit. Comfort making, and acting on, decisions with uncertainty (because by taking action they impact outcomes rather than waiting around for perfect information by which time all alpha is gone.)

i would phrase it as they often proactively take steps that are beneficial to leveraging any luck that falls their way, but there is truth to this.

Also, height. Though one in a million manlets always has world changing potential on account of their lack of height.

being highly sociable,this can be done through sociopathy or just being very outgoing but who you know matters infinitely more than what you know and in every single instance, the top guy in any field outside of like chess or something is never the smartest or hardest working

if "success" just means acquisitiveness, there are smart people who aren't acquisitive and thus don't care either way afaik.
