Dude, the word you're looking for in English is to hustle.

    There's also scheming, but i don't think either one is a 1 to 1 equivalent.

    Scheming nie działa, bo kombinowanie to dużo więcej niż samo knucie planów :)

    But I am also not so sure that kombinować is a good example because the other meanings are because it's a homonym.

    I am having trouble providing what actually OP asked for.

    A few years ago I'd say Maori "mana", but the kids now call it "aura" and it's a direct concept translation.
