In my dictionary it said "tempt fate/ providence" means to do something too confidently in a way that might mean that your good luck will come to an end. This is an example of it:
She felt it would be tempting fate to try the difficult climb a second time.
I'm not sure what it means by this example. What is her good luck that will come to an end? Could you clear up my understanding please? :-D
