I've always gotten things I apply for.

I can't tell anyone about it since I basically lie saying I'd been actively applying when usually the situation is more me procrastinating to hell until the last moment, applying for a super unlikely hail Mary thing, and getting it "after so many rejections."

I got into the only college for undergrad I applied to (which was a long shot), got into the top grad school even though my GPA was technically too low for consideration, got every internship I applied for no matter how competitive during undergrad/grad school, and got the only post grad job I applied for which is the best possible start for my dream career. I kinda figured maybe nobody else applied but found out that at least two dozen of my classmates (and who knows how many others) did try for it but somehow I received the offer. It was supposed to be a temp position so I was dreading the end of contract only to be offered a promotion to full employee with a starting salary triple my hourly.

It's not just academic or professional either. Even when it comes to other random things, like getting chosen for my high end apartment even though I had almost no credit or references after putting off looking at other places. Talking to other residents I shouldn't have gotten it, multiple people that already live in the complex wanted the upgrade.

I don't know if I'm just super lucky, more skilled/desirable than I think I am, or a combo of both.

Either way I can't tell anyone since it'll either be revealing a lie about struggling or pretentious to friends who haven't been as successful.
