No you won't, its just a silly old wives tale, someone must have broke a mirror hundreds of years ago and had a bit of bad luck so the old wives took it upon themselves to decide that's what will happen to anyone else in the future, 7 years was put on their tails and so the gullible people believed it ever since, chill out and be happy, you are going to be totally fine, I broke a mirror 2 years ago and have had nothing but good luck since, came into a bit of money luck and paid our mortgage off completely, had a holiday of a lifetime this year going on another one at Easter, done things I dreamt were impossible, see, its just an old wives tale.

No. The truth of the matter is, if you end up having bad luck, a little or for 7 years, it is just by chance. A person can talk themselves into believing "anything," if they try hard enough. It's really a myth that people have chosen to believe as fact. That's all it is.

I dont think breaking a mirror brings you bad luck. I think you make your own luck. Ive broken quite a few mirrors and I wouldnt say that Im particularly unlucky. Ive certainly never noticed a dramatic change in my life just after breaking a mirror. Dont worry about it. I wouldnt.

I broke a mirror a few weeks ago and I haven't had any bad luck yet

Of course not!! That belief started long time ago, when mirrors were very expensive and they made it up in order to safe them from touching and playing with them. Only king was allowed to have it... So don't believe in that!!! Just try to forget that even happened

No, not at all! Besides the pillow took the blame!!! If you really believe it has affected your good luck, sweep the pieces out of your house (front door), and visualize you are THROWING out all bad things from your house. Then perform a house blessing.

The only ill-luck it would have rough to you was that ti could have injured your foot . That did not happen . the ohr one could hae bee that it should have injured any one who attempted to clear the floor of the brken pieces of the mirror. that too did not happen because , any one who cleard them could have exercised some caution. So the only reamining thing that could bring illuck is your mind . you can work lot of things by your thoughts themselves . If you want to harm yourself ,just be constntly thinking of some harm happenning to you . You can cause it happen. So try to control you mind by not believing is rubbish superstitions .If you believe in it , your mid gets focussed on it . the mind that can focus on anything can cause it to happen or experienced .So focus your mind on things that want to happen to you.
in the classroom if you focaus your mimnd on the lessons , you understand them well .if you focus your mind on listening to something that gets firmly impressed on your mind and embedded on your memory. So focus improves concentration and attention. By this you fail to hear or see anu unwated and unnecessary things or sounds etc. This is the basis of auto suggestion . it is a method of building up your self-confidence . Thei is the one way that makes you what you want to be .This is the secret of the saying "What you think , that you become".
All people are not able todo this simple exercise . it is only to enable people todo this tht some forms are prescribed accordin to the levelof the understanding and capacity of the individuals . To train your mind to focus on some thing and bring it under your control , you can resort to meditation . you can just concentrate on any god you believe in . or any form you venerate and keep the mind concentrated on it for a few minutes daily. The thing is that yopu need to exercise the mind to cnable your self to have complete control over it so that you are mster of your senses , you can achieve anything with your mind.Your luck and bad luck are in your mind itself .Burh them off .Be yor self and believe in your self .
