How to Change Your Luck and Attract Good Fortune

Life can be tough sometimes. You know those days when it feels like everything is going wrong? Work is stressful, relationships are strained, and you feel like no matter what you do, luck is just not on your side. That was exactly how I felt last year.

Everything seemed to fall apart all at once. My job was on shaky ground, my health wasn’t the best, and I was just generally stuck. 

It all started on a regular Tuesday morning. I had just received yet another disappointing email from my boss, criticizing my recent work performance. It wasn’t the first time, and at that point, I honestly felt like I was about to hit rock bottom. I had been juggling work stress, personal issues, and just a general feeling of being overwhelmed.

That afternoon, I sat at my desk, staring at the screen, thinking, “Why does everything feel like such a struggle? Maybe I’m just not lucky… Maybe I never will be.”

When my best friend Leah called that evening, I wasn’t in the mood for much conversation, but I picked up anyway. “Hey, I have something for you,” Leah said. “I think it could help you.”

She showed up at my door with a small velvet box. Inside was a beautiful Green Tara Thangka pendant—a piece of Tibetan art that’s believed to bring peace and good fortune. I’d heard of Thangka art before, but I wasn’t sure if a pendant would really make a difference. Still, feeling desperate, I decided to give it a try.

At first, nothing dramatic happened. I wore the pendant every day, but life felt just as hard as it had before. Yet, slowly, I began to notice something subtle.

I didn’t feel as anxious. The constant worry that had been weighing on my mind seemed to fade, just a little. It wasn’t an instant miracle, but there was a sense of calm that started to settle within me. I even began to sleep better, something I hadn’t been able to do for weeks.

A few weeks after I started wearing the pendant, I got an email from my boss—not a criticism, but a positive performance review. “Your work has shown real improvement,” the email said. I was stunned. I hadn’t even realized that I was making progress. The shift was subtle, but it was there.

Then, things started changing in ways I didn’t expect.

The next week, a long-lost friend reached out to me. We hadn’t spoken in months, but she wanted to reconnect. And, just a few days after that, a job offer came in—one that seemed like a dream, aligned with my passions and goals.

As the weeks passed, I couldn’t deny it anymore. The change was real. It wasn’t just about getting “lucky”—it was like a fog had lifted, and I was able to see opportunities where I once saw only obstacles. I felt clearer, more balanced, and open to what was coming next.

One evening, I told Leah about everything that had been happening. “I don’t know if it’s the pendant, or just me changing my mindset,” I said, “but I feel like I’m finally getting back on track.”

Leah smiled knowingly. “Sometimes, just the right symbol can help shift your energy. It’s not magic—it’s about how you open yourself up to change.”

Looking back, I realize that the Thangka pendant wasn’t just a piece of jewelry. It became a symbol of change, of opening myself up to new possibilities. It reminded me to stay grounded, to have patience, and to trust that things could improve, even when they seemed impossible.

If you’re going through a tough time and feel like luck isn’t on your side, maybe it’s time to try something new. A Thangka pendant, like the Green Tara I wore, can serve as a powerful reminder that there’s always room for change. Whether you believe in the spiritual power behind it or simply need a little nudge to shift your mindset, it could help you turn things around—just like it did for me.
