If you had to boil down why you are where you are in life, how would you characterize that? Would you reverse engineer the circumstances of your life? Would you ascribe it to external forces? Would you liken it to fate, nature, or nurture? Perhaps a nice cocktail, a compatibilist concoction of all of the above?

I pose this question to because we're at a checkpoint (at least for me) -- It has been over a year since I made one of the most consequential decisions of my life, to quit my day job. 

I've been thinking a lot about the forces that led me to make that decision and I think I've had something of a revelation. In this transmission, we'll explore said realization and more.

There's nothing like experiencing a really compelling synchronicity. As I said in my last transmission on the topic, it's like a glitch in the matrix orchestrated just for you. In that same video I covered a lot of the basics of synchronicity according to the man who coined the term, Swiss Psychiatrist, Carl Jung.

*New sponsor: CoPilot! use this link go.mycopilot.com/THIRDEYEDROPS to start your free 14 day trial with your own personal trainer on CoPilot!*

That said, I also shied away from some big questions -- What is synchronicity? Can we construct a compelling architecture for synchronicity that's plausible? Can you and should you try to bring more synchronicity into your life? Now that I've gathered some new information, I think we can answer those questions.
