The very first question should actually be whether or not you believe in luck and how luck looks like for you.
Depending on that answer, it may be that at first, you would consider today's coaching question quite pointless: If there is no luck, why should one bother about lucky charms?!
And yet, lucky charms are just that: A charm.
A symbol for something we attribute meaning, value, some kind of power. Even if we should not believe in luck.
[This is the kind of question that can be answered
with any kind of interesting, lively, intimate stories]
Where does our strength come from? What can make us feel invincible? What is our unique version of a little bit of pixie dust?
A lucky charm can be a physical item, a gesture, a ritual, a mantra, a song, even a person.
A lucky charm can be a memory from our past, it doesn't matter whether happy ("I have always been lucky") or sad ("If I was able to overcome that, I can overcome everything").
A lucky charm can be a small gift, a souvenir, a piece of clothing, something silly. Or nothing at all.
Either way, knowing where it can come from for us tells a lot about the story we are telling ourselves every single day.
A story about ourselves, our luck or lack of, and about trust.
Coaching question of the day:
"Where does your favorite lucky charm come from?"
