Synchronicity - Commit
I think one of the key ways to develop our connection with intuition is to notice “coincidences” which I like to call “synchronicity.” When words or ideas pop up in different contexts multiple times, it’s extremely difficult for me to think of them as accidents. The randomness of such events gets lower each time the word or idea pops up. The key, I’ve discovered, is noticing when themes reoccur. I thought it would be useful for me to preserve these bits of synchronicity as they come into my life to train myself to pay attention more often.
Here’s a small example: My husband and I are going on a four day vacation in March and we’ve been looking for someone to come in and check on our cats. I did a Google search and posted my dilemma on a couple of group blogs I belong to hoping that someone would have some ideas. Through my Google search I found one place that sounded reasonable and had a good feel to it. Most of the answers I got from the group sites were “put a lot of food down” (an option not possible for our high maintenance, yet adorable cats) but one answer was a glowing recommendation for the one place I had bookmarked from my Google search. Whamo! That’s the place. Thanks for the message! (See how I incorporated gratitude there? See? See?)
Here’s the theme that has been cropping up in my life over the past couple of days: The idea of committing to what we want.
