People say 'good luck' before big events because it feels like a kind way to cheer someone on. It’s like giving them a little magic boost so they can do their best. When you say 'good luck,' it helps make the person feel more confident, and that makes them more likely to succeed! Even if you don’t believe in magic, saying it together gives everyone something fun to look forward to.
