I can sympathize with your feelings of puzzlement. What the author of the article is doing there is basically inventing a new expression "make a chance" so that he has the clever rhyme " take a chance, make a chance", which he hopes will arouse the reader's curiosity to find out what this unusual group of words might mean. Within the article he is using "make a chance" to mean "create opportunities for yourself", "arrange your life so that you create conditions for success". Outside the article, however, "make a chance" is not a normal expression.

Don't use that one. "take a chance" means to risk something. -- I don't know if I can answer the question correctly. -- Go ahead and try. Take a chance. Maybe you will answer correctly. "have a chance" means to have an opportunity. -- Why didn't you speak to Jan about the party tomorrow night? -- She wasn't at work today, so I didn't have a chance to speak to her.
