Eight Ways to Prevent Your Luck from Being Borrowed 1. When you're having good fortune, don't lend money to others casually, as they may steal your wealth (this depends on the specific situation; help in emergencies, not in chronic ones). 2. Don't lend your car; it's better to pay for renting one for you. 3. Clothes are most easily tainted by bad luck; if the person lending them clothes suffers misfortune or falls ill, you will be affected. 4. Focus your mind; your mind is your vital energy. You can't earn money outside of your vital energy. 5. Don't lend out nearly empty rice (the container for rice symbolizes "accumulating wealth"). 6. Don't lend out incense offerings, as it can affect the fortune of your family and descendants. 7. Don't be overly empathetic or interfere in others' karma; respect their fate and let go of the so-called "helping others" mentality! 8. Practice minimalism in your life; clean regularly, keep your environment clean, and maintain a clear mind. Wishing everyone good fortune and all the best!
