Example: In India Tuesday is considered as a day not to start important work. Tuesday is called "Mangal" in Indian language which means auspicious. In ancient Indian society whenever important work starts they used to start with Musical Instruments, performed by a particular community called "Mangals" (people who are starters of auspicious day) because they begin all important and auspicious functions.
Eventually people began avoiding that day to start important work. Now the custom has changed so there is no need to worry about Tuesday--one can start work on any day without fear or doubt.
Every day is important and every second is important ,don't waste time by believing superstitions.
