Okay, so I kept seeing the number 189 everywhere. On license plates, receipts, clocks – it was seriously getting freaky. I’m not usually one for “signs,” but this felt…different. So, I did what anyone in the 21st century would do: I Googled it.

Turns out, 189 is an “angel number.” I know, I know, it sounds a bit woo-woo, but hear me out. The basic idea, from what I gathered, is that these repeating numbers are little nudges from the universe, or your angels, or whatever you believe in. They’re meant to guide you or give you a message.
My 189 Experiment
The internet told me that 189 is all about personal growth, getting what you want, and finding your bigger purpose. Sounded pretty good to me! It also said something about trusting your gut and taking chances as one door closes and another opens.
Honestly, I was at a bit of a crossroads. I’d been feeling stuck in my job, and kind of…blah about life in general. So, I decided to treat this whole 189 thing as a little experiment. I was gonna actively look for ways to embrace this “message.”
- Step 1: Listen to My Gut. This was the hardest part. I tend to overthink EVERYTHING. But I started paying attention to those little inner nudges. Like, when a friend suggested a weekend workshop on something I’d always been curious about, instead of my usual “I’m too busy,” I just said YES.
- Step 2: Take a (Small) Leap. I’d been thinking about starting a side hustle, a little online shop, for ages. Fear of failure had always held me back. Seeing 189 everywhere gave me this weird little push. I finally took action!It is very small, but it is a start.
- Step 3: Be Open to “Abundance.” This wasn’t about magically getting rich. It was more about noticing the good stuff already in my life. I started a gratitude journal (super cheesy, I know, but it actually helped!).
Okay, so what happened? Did I suddenly become a millionaire living my dream life? Nope. But…things did shift. The workshop was amazing, and I met some really cool people. My little online shop? It’s slowly but surely gaining traction. And the gratitude journal? It’s made me realize how much I already have.
The biggest change, though, is internal. I feel…lighter. More optimistic. More willing to take chances. Maybe it’s all the “angel number” stuff, maybe it’s just the power of positive thinking, or maybe it’s a combination of both. Whatever it is, I’m rolling with it. I’m still seeing 189 everywhere, and now, instead of freaking me out, it makes me smile.
It is intersting!
