How do superstitious belief affect the way of Filipino living?

Superstitious belief affect the way of Filipino living, in a way that Filipino becomes limited as to what is already existing now such as the technologies that will make impossible a bit possible. Filipinos are quite dependent on their beliefs that somehow hinder them to achieve the success, since they do believe that their beliefs is useful, helping them to have a happier life. Although nothing will be taken away from them but it just they should be open as to the new generation. Their beliefs has been passed from generation to generation.
