When I was in high school, I had two little troll babies that someone gave me for good luck. I was told to rub their bellies when I needed it. They were small and fit in the palm of my hand. Whenever I had an important test in school, those little trolls came with me. I\u2019d hold them in my left hand while writing with my right. Before the test I\u2019d rub their bellies. And they always got me through my tests with flying colors.<\/p>\n

Did having the troll babies in my hand really help me get good grades? In a way they did. Every time I held them during something important, I expected it to work out because of those lucky symbols. And because I expected to do well, I did. Of course I\u2019d studied and knew the answers. But like most kids, I\u2019d get nervous when facing a test. Those little trolls calmed me down and made me feel like it would all be good. That set my vibration up for manifesting and the Law of Attraction worked in my favor.<\/p>\n

Many people use a lucky charm of sorts to get through times that make them nervous or to do well at something. They see them as bringing good luck. I see them as boosting confidence and making your expectations higher so the Law of Attraction can work with you in a positive way. It\u2019s not the rabbit\u2019s foot, or the lucky penny or my troll babies that bring good luck. Your expectations allow the Law of Attraction to bring you the \u201cgood luck.\u201d<\/p>\n

If you have a lucky charm, continue to use it to keep your positive expectations high. I still have my troll babies! And I still hold onto them when I\u2019m nervous about something. I know it\u2019s not them that brings things to me but I still like that symbol of belief and expectations. I don\u2019t use them often. But if lucky charms help you to believe in a positive outcomes and lift your expectations, then use them! They can\u2019t hurt.<\/p>\n

Let Me Count the Ways, a She's appeared on hundreds of TV and radio shows, including Oprah, Howard Stern, and Good Morning America and has been quoted in dozens of publications, including the New York Times, Chicago Sun-Times, Cosmopolitan, Redbook, Marie Claire, and Men\u00b9s Health. After being a consummate People Pleaser who felt unworthy of getting her own needs met for many years, Daylle found a path of self-love that enabled her to build her self-esteem and reinvent herself into a dual career. She learned to get taken seriously without being overtly assertive when she became one of the first women to start an independent record label (on a dare!) and learned to play ball nicely and successfully in an industry dominated by men. To help independent musicians empower themselves, Daylle writes music business books for Billboard\/Random House, including the very popular Start & Run Your Own Record Labe and I Don't Need a Record Deal! Daylle's books have been translated into over 10 languages and are popular around the world. She speaks for colleges, organizations and corporations. Through her company, Project Self-Empowerment, Daylle creates programs and materials to help people empower themselves. One goal is to raise the money to self-publish her book, How Do I Love Me? Let Me Count the Ways and give it away for free in colleges and through organizations, to give thanks for all her blessings. Daylle uses her writing and speaking to help others find the kind of contentment and empowerment that she has.","url":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/author\/dschwartz"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3517","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/83"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3517"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3517\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3521,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3517\/revisions\/3521"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3517"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3517"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3517"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
