Okay, so, I saw this “4 Cups Yes or No” thing trending and thought, “Why not?” I decided to give it a shot myself. I mean, everyone’s talking about it, so it had to be interesting, right?
First off, I grabbed four cups. Just regular cups from my kitchen, nothing fancy. Then, I needed to figure out what I wanted an answer to. I went with a question about my job – like, am I gonna be happy there in the long run? It’s been bugging me lately.
I wrote “Yes” on two cups and “No” on the other two. I put a little piece of paper with the question under each cup, just to make it official, you know? Then, I shuffled them around on the table. I closed my eyes, spun them around a few times, and tried to feel the energy. Sounds silly, I know, but I was really trying to get into it.
The Big Reveal
After a few minutes of this, I stopped and picked a cup. My heart was actually beating fast, like I was about to open a college acceptance letter or something. I flipped the cup and… it was a “No”.
- First Cup: No
Alright, I wasn’t gonna let that be the final answer. I went for a second cup. I took a deep breath, reached out, and picked another one.
- Second Cup: No
Okay, now I’m starting to sweat. Two “No” in a row? I decided to go for a third cup, because why not?
- Third Cup: Yes
Phew! A “Yes”! I was really hoping for that. At this point, I was like, “Two out of three ain’t bad,” but I still had one cup left. I had to know.
- Fourth Cup: Yes
My Thoughts
So, I ended up with two “Yes” and two “No”. A tie! What does that even mean? I guess it means things are uncertain, which, to be honest, is pretty accurate. I’m not totally unhappy at my job, but I’m not thrilled either. It’s complicated.
Honestly, the whole process was more fun than I expected. It’s not like I’m gonna make all my life decisions based on this cup thing, but it did make me think about what I want. Maybe that’s the real point of it – not to give you a straight answer, but to make you think about what you’re really asking.
I might do this again sometime, maybe with different questions. It’s a weird little exercise, but hey, it beats just sitting around and worrying. At least this way, I’m doing something, even if it’s just shuffling cups around on my kitchen table.
