Lucky Rituals for Founders: 13 Ways to Bring More Magic Into Your Business
Being a founder means making a thousand decisions a day and dealing with all the uncertainty that comes with that.
It’s no wonder so many wildly successful people swear by rituals. Whether they’re lighting a candle, wearing a lucky necklace, or checking the moon phase before launching, rituals give us structure, confidence, and (let’s be honest) a little extra sparkle.
So today, we’re diving into 13 intentional, founder-friendly rituals you can use to set the tone, clear the energy, and maybe even turn the dial up on your own luck.
✨ Why Rituals Work (Even If You Don’t Believe in Magic)
We’re not talking about casting spells (unless you want to). Rituals are small, repeatable actions that create a sense of control and clarity. In psychology, rituals have been shown to:
Reduce performance anxiety
Improve focus and follow-through
Increase creative confidence
Help rewire your brain around success
The trick? Consistency. Lucky rituals work best when they’re woven into your habits — so let’s build your custom “founder spellbook.”
🍀 13 Lucky Rituals for Founders
1. Lucky Launch Playlist
Create a playlist that puts you in your zone of genius. Use it only during product launches, pitch writing, or high-visibility tasks.
2. Wear Your Power Piece
Jewelry, perfume, blazer, lipstick, socks — whatever makes you feel iconic. Wear it when you're asking the world to pay attention. This can also include wearing your favorite color, like red, purple or pink.
3. Founder’s Intention Candle
Light a designated candle before diving into creative or sales work. Let scent and flame signal that it’s time to shine.
4. Knock on Wood… or Your Desk
Before sending the pitch, closing the cart, or hitting “send” on your newsletter, do a quick tap. It’s a grounding moment.
5. Write It Like It Already Happened
Start your Monday by journaling five things you will accomplish — written in past tense. It’s manifestation meets mindset training.
6. Keep a “Heck Yes” Folder
Screenshot those compliments, client praise, and glowing reviews. Look at it before a big ask or launch.
7. Open the Door to Money (Literally)
Open your front door or office window and say: “Money and opportunity flow freely to me.” Yep, we’re getting woo — and we love it.
8. Lucky Brew Ritual
Designate a specific tea, mocktail, or latte for high-vibe business tasks only. Think of it as your productivity potion.
9. Digital Evil Eye
Add a calming, symbolic wallpaper to your desktop — think crystals, moons, or the evil eye. It sets the tone every time you log in.
10. Avoid Mercury Retrograde (Or Prep for It)
If you’re into astrology, plan launches outside of Mercury Retrograde — or add buffer time for tech snafus and communication hiccups.
11. Say Thank You Before It’s Real
Practice gratitude in advance. Thank your future clients, press wins, and collaborations — it’s energetic goal-setting.
12. Founder Numerology
Pick a lucky number and use it: schedule launches on the 13th, make prices end in 7, or create bundles of 3.
13. Let the Black Cat In
Embrace what’s traditionally been considered unlucky — 13, black cats, Friday the 13th — and reframe it as founder power.
