Are You Superstitious

Are you superstitious?

Nope, I’m not. I never did get this. I do remember my grandmother throwing a pinch of salt over her shoulder when cooking. I think it was for good luck that the meal would taste good. The meal was always good. I doubt the salt-throwing had anything to do with it.

I have heard of the broken mirror, don’t step on a crack, or the black cat under the ladder. I think it is all silly. What will happen will happen. The only thing that changes your outcome is not luck; it is how you prepare, plan, and don’t be stupid.

Thanks for reading BeingKevin.

About Kevin, I spent 40 years in FinTech before retiring to

Rio de Janeiro to trade software releases for a front-row seat

to the beautiful absurdity of life in Brazil. This blog is my digital

porch, a place for unpolished commentary on book reviews,

daily gripes, and the random thoughts of a guy who finally has

the time to pay attention. I’m an observant realist with a deep

appreciation for history, a good quote, and the perspective that

only comes after the career ends. I write to stay sharp, to stay

honest, and to keep the conversation going.

  1. Agreed, it’s all about our own actions and planning. And honestly some things are just out of our control and superstitions don’t change that. They just make us feel more in control even though in reality we’re not.

    1. Thanks for the reply as always. We are in control of very little.
