Okay, so I kept seeing the number 114 everywhere. On license plates, receipts, clocks… it was kinda freaking me out. I’m not usually one for superstitions, but it was getting a little too consistent to ignore. So, I decided to treat it like a little experiment. What if this was some kind of “angel number,” like I’d seen on some random websites?
First, I looked it up. Just a quick search, nothing fancy. Most of the stuff I found talked about staying positive, focusing on goals, and trusting your intuition. Okay, pretty standard self-help stuff, but I figured, why not?
My 114 Experiment Begins
- Day 1: Positive Vibes Only. I tried to be extra mindful of my thoughts. No complaining, no dwelling on negative stuff. It was… surprisingly hard. I didn’t realize how much I grumbled about little things!
- Day 2: Goal Setting (Sort Of). I didn’t make any huge life plans, but I did focus on a couple of small things I wanted to get done that week. Finish a book, clean out my closet, that kind of stuff.
- Day 3: Listen to My Gut. This one was tricky. I just tried to pay attention to those little feelings, you know? Like, should I take the long way home? Should I call that friend I’d been meaning to reach out to?
It is day three, the experiment will be updated from time to time.

The weirdest part? Things actually felt… smoother. I finished the book and cleaned the closet (major victory!). I took the long way home and ran into an old friend I hadn’t seen in ages. And calling that other friend? Led to a really great conversation.
Now, am I saying that the number 114 magically changed my life? Probably not. But, it did get me to pay attention. It made me focus on being more positive and proactive. And honestly, that’s probably a good thing, regardless of whether angels are involved or not. It’s more like I used the number as a reminder to be a little bit better, a little bit more mindful.
I’m still seeing 114, by the way. But now, instead of freaking me out, it just makes me smile a little. It’s like a little nudge to keep going, keep trying, keep listening to that little voice inside.
