For the most part, I do, ish. I believe everything happens for a reason so I would not go as far as to say "luck" unless it's passing a test I didn't think I could or something of that sort. 😛 However when I was younger I used to go searching for 4 leaf clovers all the time and think I was lucky. :lol: What about you guys?
 
Luck is the success or failure that is apparently brought by chance rather than the actions of somebody. In a sense, luck does exist. Believing that you're going to be lucky is basically just a pick me up, you will find that many athletes or gamblers, in fact some of the best, have certain superstitions or rituals that they perform before their next game or gamble. For instance, I shall use football (soccer), one of the best football players, Ronaldo, has a superstition in the changing room that he must change his hairstyle at the half time mark.

Really, you have to believe in either yourself (your performances and actions), luck, or fate. If you don't believe that you yourself brought this success or failure upon yourself, such as not studying for an exam, thus you fail, or doing the opposite, you must believe that you had either good or back luck, depending on the outcome, or something that is believed by religious people widely that their God (whatever higher being) chooses their path (known as fate) when they are born into the world that they created.

For me, I do not believe in luck. Luck is simply a pick me up or put me down, it's emotional. If you think you're going to luck out in an exam, you are probably confident, and if you don't think you're going to be lucky, you will state that to your friends afterwards (likely), which indicates that you're not confident.

Awe. 🙁 Why is that?

Well its because I think luck is only to the point where you are born and after that all is upto you... the already written things are just outcomes of certain action and its upto you to decide what to do for example ... put ur hand in fire and it will burn... the destiny of fire is to burn ... and to me this is luck and destiny nothing else its purely upto us to make our luck and destiny
 
I don't really believe in luck. I can't really explain why either. It's complicated. 😛
 
I don't understand luck no more than I understand religion or politics.
