I'm in a line to the drive up ATM. Guy moves out and I take his place. I put my card in and it's blocked. He left his card in the machine. Do my thing then go walk in bank to hand over the guy's card. I didn't think anything about it. In hindsight I see a connection.
Today I used my dasher card at ULTA. Later in day at home depot and go to pay for product. I look for my card....no card. Just great. I think I left it at ULTA. Get to UlTA..... yep they had it. So the message for me was the guy was careless when he left his card at the ATM. That was a warning for me. I got that warning about 4 days prior. So I wound up doing the same thing at ULTA. The lack of mindfulness on my part. It bit me.
I told the story previously about a gal 30 years ago who noticed used plastic oil bottles at random places on the ground. She would not think twice about it. But it was so frequent that it sunk into her. At a service station getting gas the attendant said do you want me to check the oil in your car? She said no. But then 2+2 kicked in about the oil bottles. She said ok check the oil. She was down 2 quarts.
This is how DS is trying to get our attention. So by not being aware....we wind up running around trying to correct things, like I did today. Not fun. But I'm very grateful for the experience. See how you can apply it to your life.
