How was your weekend?
Did you put a bet on the National at all?
I did
I was running late in the day, and wasn’t able to get to a bookmakers, so I ended up using an online account that i used to use
I was trying to put a bet on, and for some reason, it wasn’t going through
I was starting to panic, and continuing trying
In the end, I ended up betting a lot more than I intended, £55 ?
I couldn’t believe it
I ended up losing £50, as the horses I betted on, didn’t come in
However
With only £5 now in my betting account, I decided to have a little flutter on the football yesterday, as try and win some of it back
First match was Newcastle at home to Arsenal
I betted the £5 for them to win, and they won, and I won £13
I then betted £10 for West Brom to beat Man Utd at Old Trafford, and they did, and I won £146
Cool hey
So I’m now up by £91
The moral of the story being ( and I’ve said this a few times )
I took a chance
I gambled
And this is something we need to do, in all areas of our lives
You see
If you don’t try,
Nothing will happen
And you’ll continue doing the same thing, and getting the same result, in a particular area of your life
Today is the start of a new week
What areas of your life do you need to gamble in, or take a chance, for things to change?
