Alright, let’s talk about this 1140 thing. It started showing up for me a while back, maybe six months ago? Wasn’t looking for anything, just living my life, you know?
First Encounters
It began subtly. I first noticed it on the clock. 11:40 AM. Didn’t think much of it. Then I saw it again that night, 11:40 PM. Okay, a bit weird. But then it kept happening. Not every day, but often enough that I started to really notice it.
I’d glance at my phone – 11:40. Look at the microwave timer – 1 min 40 secs left (okay, close enough, felt like 1140!). Then I got a receipt, the total was something like $11.40. That’s when I was like, okay, what’s going on here? It felt like something was trying to get my attention.
Digging In (Sort Of)
I’m not usually one for spooky stuff, but this was persistent. It didn’t feel bad or scary, just… insistent. So, I started paying more attention to when I saw it. What was I thinking about? What was I doing?
Often, I realized, I was kind of stuck in my head, worrying about the future or second-guessing a decision I had to make. Or sometimes, I was just about to start working on a new idea, something I felt passionate about but also kinda nervous to tackle.
What It Felt Like To Me
I didn’t rush to look up meanings online immediately. I just sat with the feeling. To me, 1140 started to feel like a little nudge. Like a “Hey, focus up!” message.
- Get Grounded: It felt like a reminder to get practical. Stop floating around in worry-land and focus on building solid steps.
- Positive Thoughts: It also felt connected to my thinking. Like, keep your thoughts constructive, focused on what you want to build, not what you fear.
- Action Time: And definitely, it felt like a green light. Like, “That idea you have? That step you’re hesitant about? Go for it. Now’s the time to lay the foundation.”
Putting it into Practice
So, I decided to lean into it. When I saw 1140, I took it as my cue.
If I was worrying, I’d consciously try to shift my focus. I’d literally stop, take a breath, and think about the practical next step I could take, no matter how small. Write that email. Make that phone call. Sketch out that plan.
If I was thinking about that new project, seeing 1140 felt like a confirmation. Okay, universe (or whatever you want to call it) seems to be saying “Go!”. So I started dedicating real time to it, building it bit by bit. Laying the groundwork, just like the number seemed to suggest.
Where I’m At Now
Honestly, I don’t see 1140 quite as intensely as I did during that peak period. But it still pops up now and then. When it does, it feels different now. Less like a startling “HEY!” and more like a gentle, supportive reminder. “Keep going. Stay focused. You’re building something good.”
It helped me push through some hesitation and actually get started on things I’d been putting off. It encouraged me to be more mindful of my thoughts and focus on the practical side of building my goals. Just my experience, but it definitely made a difference for me.
