Do you ever wonder how you got to where you are? How you amassed the experiences through your background, education, career, success, failure, and relationships?

It can be a complex task to figure out everything. However, in this journey you are also bound to encounter a number of accidents and coincidences.

Synchronicity is a phenomenon of experiencing two or more meaningfully related events, though they are unlikely to be causally related. The are perceived as a “meaningful coincidence”, even though the events need not be exactly simultaneous in time.

Carl Jung described synchronicity as “the underlying cosmic intelligence that synchronises people, places and events into a meaningful order”. These meaningful ‘coincidences’ appear to be more than just mere chance because they connect together seemingly unrelated moments in time, in a an organized manner.

Even your birth is a coincidence. If your Dad had married someone else instead of your Mom You (as You are today) would not have been born!

Today would be my parent’s (if they were alive) 65th wedding anniversary. If they had not met or did not get married, I would not exist. What a thought!

As past coincidences have played a part in where we are today, our actions today will determine our future.

Here are some important questions to ponder:

– What will I do different  today from what I have done in the past, and why?

– What does a Wow look like for me today; this week, and this month?
Why is it a Wow?

– What does a Wow look like to me a year from now? Why will it be a Wow?

Clarity precedes mastery. Strategies and actions aligned to clear goals propel us to success and attract the coincidences that lead us to our desired outcomes.
