While doing some research on why I keep seeing different number combinations I came across an answer response that I’m not sure I’m buying – but wanted to run it by all of you to see what you think…

So the reason given why we see numbers repeatedly… It’s called selective perception. A more common version is this, you drive around everyday, without particularly noticing the number of, say, hondas on the road. Then you start car shopping and go to a honda dealer. Now hondas are on your mind. Suddenly it seems like the roads are crawling with hondas, everywhere you look, people are driving hondas. What’s going on? Did everyone catch on to your idea of getting a honda? No, it’s just that until you brought it to the forefront of your mind, you weren’t noticing them. The more you fixate on 222, the more you are going to see it. You will make note of it any time it comes up, but you will not take note of any other numbers coming up frequently. How many numbers to you look at on a daily basis? I imagine quite a few. For you information, let’s consider 411. Now focus on that number for a bit, and see if you don’t start noticing it popping up everywhere you look.

This does not explain why I wake up and look at my clock exactly at 2:22….but am I fixating on it now???
