Today's vlog is all about "𝘉𝘦 𝘤𝘢𝘳𝘦𝘧𝘶𝘭 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘌𝘟𝘗𝘌𝘊𝘛 𝘵𝘰 𝘩𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘦𝘯…"
One of the greatest powers we possess is 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧. We have the free will to either:.. Expect / prep / believe / plan for 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐧 or for 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐬𝐭 𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐧
Both of these outcomes require focused energy on a certain outcome… and we tend to receive what we focus on versus what we want.
This is one (of a billion) reasons I don’t choose to watch the news which is 100% fear based and penetrates the mind to start thinking, believing and expecting (𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠) the worst.
But that said, here is my personal example of 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐛𝐢𝐭 𝐦𝐲 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐮𝐭𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐩𝐚𝐬𝐭 𝐰𝐞𝐞𝐤𝐞𝐧𝐝! and also how it really helped me attract my soulmate!
See, I made a list of the things I was budgeting for and on it I included car maintenance for an 𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 $𝟏𝟏𝟎𝟎. I picked this number because I knew it was definitely not going to be any higher than that.
Part of me felt like I was being very responsible, planning and expecting a large car bill. The other part of me (𝐦𝐲 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐮𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧) told me, be careful how much focus you put on that number because 𝐢𝐭 𝐝𝐨𝐞𝐬𝐧’𝐭 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐛𝐢𝐠.
Anyway, I took my SUV in for the repair 2 weeks ago and 𝐭𝐨 𝐦𝐲 𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐞 𝐢𝐭 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 $𝟒𝟎𝟎 𝐢𝐬𝐡 𝐝𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐬! I was pretty happy and thought 𝘸𝘰𝘸, 𝘐 𝘢𝘮 𝘴𝘶𝘳𝘱𝘳𝘪𝘴𝘦𝘥 𝘐 𝘥𝘪𝘥𝘯’𝘵 𝘦𝘯𝘥 𝘶𝘱 𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘪𝘧𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢 $𝟷𝟷𝟶𝟶 𝘤𝘢𝘳 𝘣𝘪𝘭𝘭.
Then 9 days later, on my way to see my midwife, my SUV broke down. I had to get it towed to the mechanic where, 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐝𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰… 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐩𝐚𝐢𝐫 𝐜𝐨𝐬𝐭 $𝟏𝟎𝟗𝟕.𝟗𝟖… 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐬𝐡𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐝𝐚𝐧𝐠 $𝟏𝟏𝟎𝟎 𝐈 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠.
Anyway, hope you enjoyed this story about the power of our minds & expecting the best or the worst outcome.
