If you're not tuning your brain to look for certain opportunities, people, things, even, I guess, just symbols that you have and you have in your mind and you want to experience or even that you want to experience as a sign, then you kind of are at the whim of just recreating a reality that looks exactly like the reality that you've always seen.

Hey guys, you're listening to the Big Conversations podcast. I'm your host, Haley Hoffman

Smith. I'm an entrepreneur, a best-selling author, and a Forbes most influential speaker. You're in the

right place if you're ready to step into the bigger

life that you were destined for because we're about to get real on how to do so. So let's get

started with today's big conversation. Hello, you guys. Welcome back to big important

talked about. But I think something that I didn't see coming at the time when I was first starting

to post about, talk about, make podcast about asking for signs from the universe, was that

sometimes signs are a little bit finicky,

and sometimes signs can say one thing and then another thing can end up happening,

which gets to be really frustrating, right?
