I keep having these experiences where I feel compelled to do something with no logical explanation, then afterwards it leads to some serendipitous (and unlikely) event. Does anyone know of any scientific or not so scientific explanations for this sort of thing? Maybe its a psychological hindsight bias but the feeling is different from a coincidence. It’s a very real “I should do this but I have no idea why”.

Yes, you can explain it in Jungian terms which is influenced by esoteric thought. It's synchronicity, guided by intuition which @phil pointed out. The more you pay attention to it, the more it seems to occur. "Yesterday they called it coincidence; today - it's synchronicity but tomorrow they'll call it - skill" AA
