A relationship coach claims 'lucky girl syndrome' can work but taking it too far can make people “lazy” and “complacent” - and even lead to depression. John Kenney, 52, says the phenomenon - which involves believing you are lucky - has been around since the 1960s.
He says it was known as the 'Law of Assumption' – the assumption you will get what you want. The 'lucky girl syndrome' is a recent TikTok trend, which took off after users described how it worked for them.
It sees people tell themselves they are lucky and they claim to then have good things happen for them. John believes the syndrome and manifestation can be used to achieve a more positive mindset around what you want to obtain and opens up part of your brain which makes you more aware of what you are looking for.
