LOA lesson I learned yesterday
 

I had to travel up in to the city yesterday which involves microbuses or buses and / or metro part way which on a Thursday late afternoon could take a couple of hours (it's the start of the weekend on Thursday evenings round here).

It was boiling hot (38C - 100F) and as I walked to the roadside where you have to stand and wait for anything going your way, I thought - "I want a nice comfortable front seat in the microbus going all the way to Giza". As 2 or 3 came past full I made the relevant hand gestures. One passed 3 other people waiting and came up to me - I THOUGHT I saw the driver do the gesture for pyramids (about half way - I would have to change to another bus there), so I got on - the only seat available was a comfortable front seat :D so I thought - I have half of what I asked for.

Anyway, he accepted the fare to pyramids, when we got there I said in my best arabic "I want Giza" (ie let me out at the Giza road). Well blow me down with a feather if he wasn't going all the way to Giza!!!! I had to pay a bit more fare (normally you have to pay the fare all the way to the destination no matter where you're getting off so by letting me pay less he had convinced me he was only going part way).

SO even though I didn't know it had worked perfectly, it HAD!!

So moral of the story - **** you might not know it but you might already be on the right 'bus' for your destination :D *******

The people of Cairo often try to cheat you as a foreigner, but they can be incredibly friendly and generous as well :)

Great story :D
This sound like segment intending. You send an intention for the activity/situation you are about to do/have.

I've never done it though, consciously I mean:D

I found it works great for buses - when I was consciously doing it all the time earlier this year, never had to wait more than a few minutes for a bus with a seat - when I wasn't doing it, might have to wait ages and get a sardine can!

I've just started doing it again for the buses and blow me it works again! More than coincidence says it should, I'm sure.

I shall have to look up "segment intending" - never heard of it before!

@Arboreter - I love Cairenes, and I go on buses etc instead of taxis partly because noone rips me off on the bus ;D

The other day I read someone else was doing it, and then I remembered that it sounded familiar, I think I had read it in the Ask and it is given, Abraham-Hicks. I'll have to look it up though.

Instead of bus seats, I'll try it with a parking space:D

Here I found this on the internet just now.

Process of Segment Intending - Abraham - Hicks - eSnips, share anything

Great thanks, I'll give it a listen :D

My oh My! What's this all about then!

As part of my big writing project/challenge, I need to get some technical info on a particular technology.

I haven't started exploring it in any detail at all - still "blueprinting" the magnum opus - but I check my email this morning and a 100% completely appropriate technology site has started 'following' me on Twitter!!!!!

How did they know to add me? I certainly haven't done any 'cosmic ordering'

Coincidence? LOA? You decide ;)

I like this statement :cool:
