As
2015 begins its story in our lives, I want to point out an idea with millions
of possibilities! These possibilities do not discriminate; even those with
lives that are so busy and packed to the gills can reap the millions of them in
each & every month...
There is a mathematical theory, by now
deceased Mathematician John Littlewood, called Littlewood's Law. In a nutshell it states that if you break each
day into two second chunks, in about a month's time you will have experienced
about a million of them. (based on the average person being awake and alert for
8 hours of each day). So you are blessed with a million opportunities for
something amazing, wild, miraculous to happen. Steven Strogatz, PhD of Applied
Mathematics at Cornell, states that this principle suggests that with enough
chances, crazy coincidences are likely to occur. Littlewood himself speaks of
what he called Miracle Math. He
believes that every person would experience one miracle each month in his/her
lifetime. He defined this miracle as something deemed to have special significance
and occurring at the probability of one in a million.
So now what do we do with this revelation?
Well, I for one will jump for joy, then bring my awareness back to my typical
day and the almost endless possibilities.
I am always suggesting to dream big; here you go, mathematical proof that the
possibilities in your day are plentiful beyond our reasoning minds! Your cup
does runneth over with possibilities, with miracles that will blow you away. Keep
all your senses alert & stay in the moment each second of each day (tall
order I know). Use precious time to dream big & explore your possibilities.
You don't want to miss a precious one...
