Don't forget your Guardian Angel
I’ve travelled a lot for both business and pleasure over the years, and have encountered my share of airplane delays, lost luggage, and even sports injuries on these trips. I like to read a lot of spiritual literature. About ten years ago, I kept noticing the word ‘benevolent’ used in stories about Angels.
I’ve travelled a lot for both business and pleasure over the years, and have encountered my share of airplane delays, lost luggage, and even sports injuries on these trips. I like to read a lot of spiritual literature. About ten years ago, I kept noticing the word ‘benevolent’ used in stories about Angels. As this is not a commonly used word in the English language, it was quite noticeable to me. One day I read the suggestion to request benevolent outcomes for events in your life. I decided to try it out, and was amazed how perfectly it worked for everything, from small requests such as a parking spot next to a busy restaurant or a seat on the subway in Paris to some really important negotiations in my business. After having made these requests between 10,000 and 15,000 times over the years, I am firmly convinced that our Guardian Angels are there to assist us in living more gentle lives. We just have to ask. So when do you make these requests? I request Most Benevolent Outcomes (MBOs as I call them) for everything. While packing for a trip, I’ll say, ‘I request a Most Benevolent Outcome for remembering everything I need to take on my trip. Thank you.’ When it’s time to go to the airport, I request a Benevolent Outcome for the drive to the airport in safety and with no delays. How many people have you heard about that have missed a flight because of a traffic jam or an accident on the motorway? At the airport, I’ll say, ‘I request a Most Benevolent Outcome that my bags arrive safely and on time. Thank you.’ I always say ‘thank you’ to my Guardian Angel. David emailed to tell me he requested a MBO for making it through security (nothing can slow you down more than being ‘randomly’ chosen for a full search). There were two lines, one that traversed back and forth and the other for flight personnel. Just as the person ahead of him was directed into the maze, the gatekeeper closed off that path and let David be the first person to pass through the fast-path route through security. As he said, ‘That was cool!’
