you know you have given up trying to win when
feel free to add your own
at least it is a chance to actually contribute to the "i won, i won, i won" thread!!! lol
- you stop check "winners circle" for your name.
- you dont search google for "your name" winner.
- you dont jump up when you see a delivery van drive past.
- you dont jump up when you see the post man.
- you automatically think junk/sales when you get a handwritten envelope.
- you havent checked you "other messages" on facebook for more than a month.
- when you get a call asking for "mrs. whoever" you dont listen hoping it is a win, but say you arent interested before they ask if "you are having a nice day".
- your friends/family stop asking what you have won this week/month.
- and you dont stay in till after the post is delivered... just in case

Thoughts become things!
What you think about you bring about!
