EPIC FAIL OP. You don't seem to be at all open to the fact that you might actually not have it quite right either.

What do you think about this? Do you think it's possible?
For many years I seem to have had the knack of making my dreams a reality. Especially at this stage of my life; having my old life crumble around me has taught me a lot about following my dreams relentlessly. I'm a massive 'go-getter' in this life though, and don't tend to give up easily, so it could just be something to do with that.

Manifestation is tricky, some people understand it, others don't. I'm pretty fuckin good at it and plan on manifesting my dream into this reality.
I understand that everything happens for a reason. Yesterday I had something cool happen to me, I want you all to think about this.
I turned my head and my eyes laid on the clock and 1 second later the clock changed from 6:56 to 6:57. What are the odds of that happening? What are the odds of my eyes landing on the clock at that moment that the clock changed from 6:56 to 6:57 in mathematics.

Okay
Now there are many places that my eyes could have wandered to. Many places that my eyes could have landed. Why did they land on the clock at that moment that it changed?

well, mathematics will tell you that the odds are 1 in 60 that you will land on the clock at that moment. I will tell you that mathematics can not tell you shit about odds. There are many variables at play and the variables are going to have an impact on you.
This happened to me twice yesterday, two times yesterday at random my eyes landed on the clock at that exact moment that this happened. Now the odds of this happening twice in a day are infinitely low. Very fuckin low, so I want you to think about myself and how I talk and act.
This is the important question now...
Why can I not stop with this talk about me being the root of david

No the odds aren't infinitely low They're 1/360
And the only reason you think it's so amazing is because those other 359 times have occurred but don't register as significant

1/60 the odds of it happening once 1/60 * 1/60 the odds of it happening twice

You also suffer from a mental illness that emphasizes and obsesses over patterns, whether they're completely insignificant of not. Your brain is wired to be highly sensitive to pattern recognition... To the point of creating patterns where they don't exist.
This is a hallmark of the schizophrenic

Okay, so in mathematics it is 1 in 360, the odds that it will happen twice in a day. I will tell you that mathematics is wrong, it is actually lower than that.
but I roll a dice and it is 360 sided and I guess it right in the first try what are the odds of that happening?

1/360 You can tell me the odds are lower, but it just means you're wrong

As long as we're talking about clocks here, broken or otherwise, do you know what else can happen twice in a day?

No, I am trying to make you think. That is my only purpose here, to make you think. I could care less about what conclusion you give me. As long as you thought throughout the process you have pleased me.
