Throughout the years for as long as I can remember, I've been able to spontaneously yet unconsciously conjure random thoughts into reality. It happens most frequently with films. One day I'll randomly think of a scene in any movie and play it in my head, in that same day I'll think of a different scene in the same movie. Later that day, I'll be scrolling through the channels only to find that movie playing. I'll put the movie on and watch it for some time until one of the scenes I was thinking of that day starts playing. This shoots me into the awareness of how coincidental it was to have seen this movie on the same day I was thinking of it.

I used to think it was coincidence until it happened all the time and never failed.

One thing of note I've noticed is if I *acknowledge* these thoughts as I'm thinking them before I even know if the movie is playing later or not, chances are the movie will not play because of that acknowledgment. Never fails either.
I have noticed the film only shows when I show no real awareness towards the fact that it might show later that day, and I must think of a minimum of 2 scenes or greater to actually see it playing later on.

It's mind blowing when I play the movie and come to the realization that this was the movie I was thinking of today just as the scene reveals this truth to me.

I know this sounds like a silly post and perhaps many of you consider this to be basic stuff that I should learn to control to put to better use. Perhaps it is through some flaw in my own thinking that lets this happen. I am always studying my thoughts and the actions around me and would really like to know what this is about since it's very common and I know Im not the only one who this happens to.

I should also mention this occurs in everyday life as well. If I am driving to work knowing that when I get there all the parking spots will be taken up and I'd have to search for a while before finding one, when I get there it would be rather simple for me to find a parking. Events usually occur in the exact opposite way that my mind knows to expect. In a result of this, most the time whenever I think now I can never truly think of something as absolute fact until it occurs and therefore always am off track or holding on to the possibility that the next thought will be "not so accurate".

Acknowledgment seems to play a huge part in this I've noticed. If I think there will be no parkings when I get there, then catch myself as Im thinking that, I would acknowledge that I could be wrong so I must simply wait it out and see what occurs.

Anyone have any ideas or insight into this kind of thing? Again, this is probably like asking a math leet what two plus two equals...
