"Does IT make such a difference?"

Hello  

There was a gang of us having dinner and a bit of a
party when someone suggested playing the latest
version of Trivial Pursuit.

I remember…

Playing it quite a lot some years ago but not recently
and thought it could be fun.

However…

One couple said they weren’t keen to play - as they never
knew any of the answers.

As you might imagine this produced some looks of surprise
on the faces of the rest of the gang. NEVER knew? – Someone
queried.

“Yes – we never know any of the answers” the man said.

Why…

Don’t we just look at some of the cards, as they are a new set
and right up to date – just to see if you know any? Suggested
one woman

They looked, they knew some answers, not all to be sure.

And the game commenced:

As it progressed the couple distracted themselves with conversation
together and really took very little part in the fun of questions and
suggested answers – some crazy, some off the wall, some oh so
accurate.

Such a shame!

They conditioned themselves to:

NOT enjoy the game

NOT join in

NOT know any answers.

And sure enough:

They got all 3 wishes – precisely as they’d wished them.

I wonder just how many times you and I get exactly what
we wish for? I’ll bet it’s most of the time – especially with the
‘stuff’ we didn’t know we were really wishing.

I’m going to be very careful now I again realize the power
of mind-programming.

You too?

Go on then!
