Coincidences

Concordance refers to the likelihood that two people with many similarities may think the same thoughts.

Coincidences emerge in the minds of the beholders.

For some people, coincidences are “just coincidences”; everything is random. For other people, nothing is “just coincidence”; everything is preordained.

Some statisticians say all coincidences are just due to random chance, and they are meaningless. Others disagree.

“If people learn to become more sensitive to coincidences in movies, then they can learn to become more coincidence-sensitive in the movies of their own lives,” said Dr. Bernard Beitman.

For some people, coincidences are like sign posts in life. They think coincidences show they’re “on the right path,” or “it’s meant to be.”

Strange coincidences may involve a sensory perception we don’t yet understand.

You think of a friend you haven’t heard from in years and she all of a sudden calls. Is your mind mysteriously connected to the outside world?

For some people, God is clearly the force behind strange coincidences. Others say it’s “the universe,” and some say, “It’s all explainable by probability.”

A strange coincidence helped Oprah Winfrey increase her fame. Coincidences can help us all if we are attuned to their possibilities.

Dr. Bernard Beitman is developing Coincidence Studies, and he uses a metaphor to explain the importance of categorizing the different kinds of coincidences.

When people experience coincidences, they often think, “Wow, the chances of this occurring are so small!” Some statisticians say, however, that people aren’t good at intuitively calculating the chances.

When you encounter a strange coincidence, your first thought might be, “What are the chances?”

Have you ever experienced a strange coincidence and thought, “What are the odds of that?”

Tornadoes, hurricanes, and typhoons have swept in at precisely the right time to influence important battles in history.

Coincidences can teach us much if we learn to decipher their meanings.

Once you become aware of coincidences, you realize what a ubiquitous part of life they are. They help with self-improvement, relationships, and more.

Coincidences are fascinating. They are also immensely useful in ways most people never considered.
