If I buy something with a bad feeling, will it bring me good luck? By Anonymous | Published on December 18, 2024

Some time ago, I went to a jade shop to ask for a Thousand-Armed Guanyin to protect me. However, I was perfectionistic, and I couldn't decide between the cheap ones and the expensive ones that needed to be customized. Although I didn't know him, I thought he was okay in person and the carved works were also quite good. So I paid him a deposit of 2,000 yuan first, bought him a Red Bull, and prepared to let him make the Thousand-Armed Guanyin that cost more than 10,000 yuan. When I got home, I checked and saw that my balance was running low. I told him not to make it yet, but to wait until I had earned enough money to make it for the New Year. I believed him. During this time, I fell in love with a peony again and wanted him to design it for me. He resented my change of heart. When it came to choosing the material, he changed his mind. When I asked about the 5,000 yuan jade, he said it was 6,800 yuan, which was an inflated price. He wanted to make a peony out of Hetian jade seed material, which he said would cost tens of thousands of yuan. I asked for a price of 6,000 yuan. He said he could make it for me using Hetian

Kiss, I saw your confessions and I know you had an unpleasant experience when buying jade for crafts. You're worried that he didn't make things for you with sincerity, didn't bring you blessings, and that the things he made couldn't bring you good luck. Let's explore this together! Give him a big hug.

1. When buying and selling goods, the negotiation between the two parties is paramount. You have already paid a deposit and treated him to something, which shows your sincerity. It is normal for your ideas to change and for new needs to arise during the process.

He simply didn't understand that he was in the service industry and that every customer is different. He also lacked the right attitude. It's normal to have a few hiccups along the way, and it's not your fault.

His sense of service is lacking.

2. You are worried that although you have closed the deal, he is not making the item with all his heart, and you are afraid that the finished product will not bring you good luck. I understand your concern, but I am certain that the finished product will bring you good luck. Handicrafts are the result of the craftsman's hard work, and I believe that for the sake of his long-term business, he will not mess around.

Bringing such things that attract wealth and good luck has always been a matter of belief. If you don't believe, you don't have it. It's the sense of personal belief of the person who is bringing it that is at work. Don't pay too much attention to the rest.

3. If you are still worried about this, perform some sacrificial rituals or something to make things a little purer and reassure yourself.

You may find the above information useful. Thank you.

Everyone has the power to be a beacon. Whether you ask a question or answer one, your words can help many people, and this is something we can all do.

Hello, I'm a mindfulness coach, and I can really relate to how you're feeling. We usually don't say "buy" when talking about jade, jadeite, and other similar items. We say "ask" instead because we have good wishes in our hearts and we hope for something beautiful and desirable from these objects.

You've changed your mind from the Thousand-Armed Guanyin you originally chose to the peony. During your negotiations with the owner, you feel that both sides have become emotional over the price, which has caused some unease in your heart. Will this object, which you've put so much good will into, fail to work?

?1. Thinking about things that might not even happen can really drain our energy.

The human brain is wired for certainty. It's how we've survived as a species. When we're uncertain, our brains are on high alert. But once we have a handle on things, our brains can relax.

This is why people tend to stick to a certain point of view. It doesn't matter if it's right or wrong, once you believe it, your mind will be at ease. Without something to believe in, your mind will go crazy.

We tend to think that beliefs are the same as facts, but opinions aren't facts. For instance, you might believe that "buying things with a happy heart can bring good luck."

The truth is, the result of this order depends on you, as well as a number of other factors, including the owner of the object, the person who provides the raw materials, the person who mines the raw materials, and so on.

?2. How to let go of your worries

To be honest, when it comes to sums of several thousand or even tens of thousands of dollars, it's only natural that people will worry, or even feel anxious. They worry about the quality, the authenticity, whether they have overpaid, whether the purity is not high enough, etc.

Jade objects are priceless. There are "a thousand kinds of agate and a thousand kinds of jade." Jade is naturally formed and has been shaped by nature. Its value can't be measured in money.

You're suspicious because of the psychological "heart anchor law." The thousand-armed Guanyin statue, which costs more than 10,000 yuan, has become the anchor for the peony made of Hetian jade seed material. The boss previously quoted the jade at 5,000 yuan, so it's now the "anchor" for the price you're psychologically able to accept. The Hetian jade seed material has become the "anchor" for the Hetian jade material made of mountain and flowing water.

If you accept the former, you'll naturally be unable to accept the latter after comparison. As long as you keep your original intention, asking for these objects is a good omen. What you think, what you say, and what you do will ultimately lead to a good result.

Plus, good people are rewarded not by anyone's blessing but by the merits we cultivate through our "wish power." Relax, the boss is a businessman who knows the importance of reputation and credibility.

I hope this is helpful to you, and I wish you all the best.

Hello, question asker! I can totally feel your worries, unease, grievances, and confusion from your description.

You wanted a Thousand-Armed Guanyin to protect you, so you chose a designer you liked and paid a deposit!

But due to your own reasons, the custom plan was temporarily shelved, and in the meantime, you changed your mind again and decided to make peonies instead!

The merchant expressed dissatisfaction and raised the price of the ingredients, so you had the exciting opportunity to settle for second best and choose ingredients that you weren't entirely happy with.

On the one hand, you feel that the merchant has not satisfied you and want to ask for a refund, but you are excited to see what happens when you do!

On the other hand, you are worried that if you are unhappy, the mascot will not be able to bless you, and you are torn between the two. Is that right?

☺️ You don't really know what perfection is, but you're on a journey to find out!

Perhaps, although you pursue perfection, you don't really know what it is. But that's okay! We all have different ideas of what perfection looks like.

So, on the one hand, you were hesitant about your choice, and there was a scene where you wanted to be the Thousand-Armed Guanyin but changed to the peony.

At the same time, because the designer did not fully meet your wishes, you also began to feel a little disappointed. You wanted a refund, but you were excited to see what other options were out there!

Perhaps, whether it is the Thousand-Armed Guanyin, the peony, or the designer, you don't believe in your own choices, nor do you believe that anything can truly protect you. But that's okay! There's nothing wrong with that. It's all part of the journey.

In the course of communicating with the designer, you may have let your uncertainty and distrust show, and the other person could sense it, which is why they became impatient and told you to trust them.

You say you seek perfection, and who doesn't? But what is perfection? You yourself are not sure, and you cannot achieve it. It is conceivable that no one else can satisfy you.

☻️ Losing control of the outside world is the root of your anxiety.

Perhaps in your heart, the so-called perfection is that this world should be according to your ideas!

But you find that the world is not what you imagined it to be, and this realization makes you feel very uneasy and worried.

In the process of making the mascot, something else happened that you couldn't control, which made you feel aggrieved and worried.

This once again shattered your pursuit of perfection, and now you have the chance to try something new! You can choose to doubt the protective effect of the peony, or you can choose to embrace the exciting possibilities that come with a new pursuit.

In fact, when you accept that there is no absolute perfection in this world and that the world will not turn according to our wishes,

You can absolutely find it easier to make choices and feel at peace and content!

The amazing thing is that what can truly give us shelter is not the Thousand-Armed Guanyin or the peony, but the changes we make ourselves!

When we start to accept ourselves and accept that the world is not what we imagine, we can gain peace of mind and happiness!

Wishing you the very best!

I understand your situation with the jade craftsman. It seems like you're caught between a rock and a hard place, wanting to honor your initial commitment but also pursuing new interests. I'm sure it's tough deciding what to do next.

It sounds like communication became an issue between you two. When expectations shift, it can lead to misunderstandings. Maybe reaching out to discuss your options openly could help clear things up.

The fluctuation in pricing is definitely frustrating. It feels like you're trying to find common ground, but the prices keep moving. Perhaps setting a budget upfront would have been beneficial.

Miriam Thomas Time is money.

You seem to be really passionate about getting the perfect piece of art. Whether it's the ThousandArmed Guanyin or the peony, you want something that resonates with you. That passion is commendable.

Changing your mind can sometimes strain relationships, especially when money is involved. It might be worth considering how to approach future projects to avoid similar issues. Transparency and clear terms could be key.
