Magically thinking about the Denver Nuggets

Magical Thinking is the belief that one’s ideas, thoughts, wishes, or actions can influence the course of events in the physical world. It’s also the title of a very dark and funny book by Augusten Burroughs.

Admit it. You’ve done it before. You’ve circled the room a certain way because something bad happened the last time you went the other direction, or always eat a certain food before something important happens at work. Maybe you focus on a candle flame, certain you’re making it move in a certain direction, or always drive a certain path to work on Tuesdays.
