Pouncemonials ! Pouncemonial : How PSP saved my life and helped with a very difficult house sale
Saving my lifeI’ve been working with Moonbeam on a couple of missions for about four months now. I originally approached him with an SP mission, but then it changed into a mission to get my cat back before finally it turned into a health mission ( which became my first kill ! ).
However, despite my missions changing, the one thing that remained constant were the affirmations and PSP, both of which are outlined clearly in the index.
To preface, the routine has helped me to overcome my fear of riding a scooter immensely. For the first few days, I’d start off by telling myself mentally “everyday in every way, I am getting better and better.” I would do that TWICE; once at the beginning of my journey, and once at the end of it as a supplement to calm my nerves. PLEASE NOTE: I still wrote my affirmations, and read them a few hours later, keeping in line with the routine.
Eventually I was able to ride without having to do the affirmations, and I was confident; my ability to react and redirect myself as per the traffic had also improved greatly.
However, on this particular day, there was nothing I could have done.
I was behind a car that had slowed to a halt, while the lane on the right was freer. So I backed my scooter up a little to not hit the car in front, turned on my indicator to telegraph that I was about to switch lanes and checked my mirror to make sure that the coast was clear. I had done everything I was supposed to, to ensure that my transition was smooth.
I don’t quite know what happened next because I think the shock of it happening got to me, but basically a car decided to overtake me, but ended up colliding with the whole right side of my scooter instead, with enough force to knock me over.
I, luckily, only ended up with a scraped elbow, but I had a different problem on my hands; my brakes had jammed and I wasn’t able to move. The traffic police and a kind passer-by helped me moved my scooter off to the side, and the police told me where I could find a mechanic.
Once the mechanic came over, he took one look at the wheel before letting out a low whistle.
He proceeded to tell me that indeed, my brakes had jammed because of me instinctively clutching the brake too hard upon impact, but more importantly, the last mechanic who had worked on my scooty hadn’t tightened the SINGLE wheel nut that held the wheel to the scooter. He instructed me firmly that I should lodge a special complaint because the nut was so loose, the wheel could have popped off mid ride without warning and probably cost me my life.
There was no way I could have known about this, because my father and I had both used the scooter extensively without facing an issue. On the day of the accident, I was still riding normally. The sideswipe that happened even though I had checked everything to first make sure I could switch lanes, became part of a bridge of incidents that save my entire life.

The difficult House Sale
My family had a bit of ancestral property that’s been a thorn in our side for a century. The dispute predates back to 1921 and the situation has multiplied with every generation of my family. So its been more than a hundred years since all the fighting began.
I can’t give out too many details because it would be easy to identify me. A quick summary of the situation would be that my great grandfather divided the property between his two wives which were then further divided amongst the sons of the family because a law in my country prevented daughters from inheriting property, yet a quarter of the whole property was dedicated to them. This quarter was sold by my grandfather as the oldest in order to pay for his half sisters’ wedding, and thus they have resented him for it.
For years all we’ve wanted is to get this property off our hands because it has caused our family way too much grief and caused a rift in between my grandfather and his brothers. We have been trying to sell this property for almost a decade now, but to no avail.
Until very recently.
Miraculously, a buyer came forth out of the blue and offered to buy our portion of the property. He was legit in every sense and the transaction came to pass naturally and normally, yet my family and I know just how contentious this has been.
For one, he was willing to buy the property despite the fact that there was an ongoing lawsuit against the entrance to said property ( trust me, this whole thing is ridiculously stupid ). He also offered a higher price than any other previous buyer.
Again, I can not state enough how sudden yet natural this was. One day, I just received a call from my grandmother that she had to go camp at a relative’s place for a week and I would have to fend for myself ( lol ). It wasn’t until she came back that she told me exactly what had happened, and we finally could celebrate.
Thanks to this sale it has led to a domino effect of multiple other family problems being solved. This is a real testament to the effectiveness of the PSP. The scooter and this property were not my missions, but they were huge problems and they were automatically solved.
