You know, it’s funny how things pop up when you least expect them. I was going through a bit of a rough patch a while back. Felt kinda stuck, like I was just spinning my wheels day in and day out. Wasn’t unhappy, exactly, but just… stagnant. Needed a change, but wasn’t sure what or how.
That’s when I started seeing 1018. Seriously, it felt like it was everywhere. It wasn’t like I was looking for it, not at first anyway. It just kept appearing.
- I’d wake up in the middle of the night, glance at the clock on my phone – 10:18 PM.
- Driving to work, stuck in traffic, I’d look over and see 1018 on a license plate.
- Went to grab coffee, the order number was 1018.
- Even a random receipt total came out to $10.18.
After maybe the fourth or fifth time in just a couple of weeks, I couldn’t just ignore it anymore. It went from “huh, weird coincidence” to “okay, what is going on?”. It wasn’t spooky or anything, just… persistent. It made me pause and think.
Figuring Out What It Meant for Me
So, I started paying more attention, not just to the number, but to what I was doing or thinking when I saw it. I wasn’t into all that number stuff usually, but curiosity got the better of me. I tried to figure out what this specific sequence, 1018, might be pointing towards, especially with everything I was feeling at the time.
Putting my own situation into the mix, seeing 1018 started to feel like a quiet little nod from the universe. For me, it felt like it was about new beginnings, about getting ready for a shift. That feeling I had about needing change? Seeing 1018 felt like confirmation. Like, “Yeah, you’re right to feel that way, something new is coming, keep your eyes open and keep working towards it.”
It also had this vibe of hard work paying off. I’d been putting in effort on a side project, pouring hours into it after my regular job, hoping it might lead somewhere. Seeing 1018 felt like encouragement, suggesting that maybe all that grind was actually leading towards some kind of positive outcome, maybe even a bit of financial improvement down the line.
It wasn’t a magic wand, obviously. Seeing the number didn’t suddenly change my life. But it gave me a little boost of confidence. It made me trust my gut feeling a bit more, that feeling that I should push forward with the changes I was considering. It was like a reminder to stay positive and keep putting one foot in front of the other, even when I wasn’t totally sure where the path was leading.
So yeah, that was my little dance with the number 1018. Just a personal thing, how I interpreted it during that specific time in my life. It kinda helped me focus and keep moving. Still see it now and then, and it makes me smile, reminds me of that period of figuring things out.
