Superstition is the way


Wow, apparently my resume has lucky charms all over it. I just got another interview.

I am a totally superstitious person. I believe that if the trinkets on my shelf are facing one direction, and life is going well, that I can't move them (even to dust). Right now I have a trinket, that forgot to get packed, in my purse. It's just a little polished rock bear in the Native American tradition. Bears are my spirit animal. Just having it in there is a comforting reminder of living back where I moved from, but now it just might be a lucky charm.

"New research shows that having some kind of lucky token can actually improve your performance -- by increasing your self-confidence." See? They really work.
