Like for example, I honestly believe you can jinx yourself by expecting and especially by saying out loud some good thing will happen to you. And then if someone does "tempt their luck" by saying these things out loud I try to counteract the bad juju by "knocking on wood". 
What about you? Are you also a little nuts? |
When I still took soccer to heart, I had some version of that. "Mustn't get cocky and jinx it, better think bad thoughts" during matches etc.
Somehow makes sense that a lot of professional sportspeople are superstitious and have little rituals for when they go out on the pitch or the final training before the match or whatever btw
