    Signs of Land: When You're Almost There, But Not Quite

    Because you’ve spent a whole lifetime of seeing and experiencing things you don’t like, you’ve been vibrationally asking for the opposite. So, if you’ve been doing the work of letting go of trapped emotions, questioning your beliefs, and getting yourself out of a victim mentality, sooner or later you’re going to let some of those awesome things manifest into your life. You only have to release your resistance to them- you know your thoughts like, “That could never happen because of…” But, of course, that’s not an easy thing to do. As I’ve written before, simply understanding the law of attraction doesn’t make your life magically easy. Letting go of resistance is difficult. But you know that, and so you do the work, right? Then something awesome comes into your life, and whether or not you see it as such is up to you. But I wanted to write this to let you know about what I call “Signs of Land”, so that you will notice it when it happens to you. Signs of Land Imagine being shipwrecked, and floating on something in the middle of an ocean so that you cannot see land any way you look. Whether you’re by yourself or not is up to your imagination. In this example, the grand desire is for land (and all that land represents to you like drinkable water, food, etc.). You can paddle yourself in a direction, and maybe you know the direction to choose, and maybe you don’t, but your higher self or God guides you. But you doubt. You have no idea if you’re going to find land before you die. That can be what it’s like to have a limiting belief. Maybe you’re a single mother struggling with raising a child alone, and don’t know how you’re going to make enough money to do it. Maybe you’re struggling as an artist and don’t know if anyone is ever going to buy your work. Maybe you’re working in an industry that sees you as a number, rather than appreciating you as a person, so you never feel valued. These all may wonder if it’s ever really going to happen for them, or if they will be in this position for the rest of their lives, or, even, if things will get worse when the other shoe drops. But, then you hear a bird call, and look up and wonder if you imagined it. Then you see the bird in the distance. You may dismiss it and go back to wallowing, because it’s not what you so desperately want. But then it dawns on you. If there’s a bird, it means you’re close to land. That bird had to come from somewhere. You know you’ve been going the correct way now. You know which direction to go for better accuracy. You know that sooner or later you will reach land. So now you’re a lot more optimistic. Or are you? Some people, when they get this sign slip into worry mode. They may worry that they don’t have the energy to keep going, or they now see their situation as more desperate, and may think losing your paddle at this stage is worse than losing it when you couldn’t see land at all, because it’s just going to be more devastating when you had a chance. But they’ll keep going. I mention this because those worries can sometimes cause delays. It’s much better to deal with the fear head on while you’re still more optimistic, than to push the fear away (through avoidance tactics) and then end up with the very devastation you feared. In this example, you’re far more likely to drop the paddle when you fear dropping the paddle than when you face your fear and make better decisions based on it. It’s a Sign For a Reason I used the phrase “Signs of Land” for a reason. It does not mean you have actually manifested the big thing you are in the process of manifesting, but it’s a sign you are closer than you thought. Imagine if you have a niche interest and want to make money doing something in that “field” but there don’t seem to be any ways to make money doing anything related to that niche field. The root problem is that you don’t believe that people value this thing that you can bring into the world. If they value it enough, they will pay for it. And then one day you meet someone who gets paid money to do something similar. This could now be considered a competitor of yours. You could get angry. But, what this is doing is allowing you to see that it is possible for someone to be paid for a similar niche job. The smarter reaction would be to ask questions to learn more about how this person did it. It would be wise to see this is a learning opportunity, and use it to break apart your limiting belief that making money this way is “impossible.” The next step would be working on why you don’t believe you, in particular, are not valued or couldn’t be valued. People who wish to be married or have children can see others doing just that and get very upset. This is showing them that they have a limiting belief, and it would be good to look into that deeper. I wrote about that more in my article, Feeling Joy For Others Helps You: Envy & Jealousy Help You To Know What You Desire & How To Get It. You can think of these examples as learning and growing opportunities and receive much more from them, than if you think of them as the universe or an evil God mocking you. We’re all manifesting based on our beliefs which cause resistance. The feeling you’re being mocked comes from not believing it’s possible that this thing could happen for you in particular. The example is showing you how much resistance you have to getting what you want. The more negative the reaction, the larger the resistance. Knowledge is power. When you learn more about yourself, you can see why you had such an emotional reaction. Understanding that may not make it disappear completely, but can help lessen the blow because it won’t shock you any longer. Looking Forward So, as I’ve said when you feel negatively about seeing Signs of Land, it’s teaching you about your limiting beliefs, so it’s a good learning experience. But, if you feel positively about it, then milk those feelings. Don’t just think of it as a random happenstance. See it as Signs of Land. The 1st Thing May Not Be THE Thing Perhaps you thought you would never find a job that really suits you. You may have had horrible jobs your whole life, and then end up in a job that seems to suit you extremely well. But there’s a problem, you’re surrounded by morons or sneaky devils. The job may be great, but you have a problem with the environment. That’s another form of resistance to work through. And if you work through that resistance, you can manifest a better job. So, sometimes you land on something, a job, new city, new lover, etc. but they are not 100% what you want. It’s a process. It just shows you that you have more resistance to work through, but it’s still a sign that things are improving. You can and should still milk the positives and be optimistic about the future. The trap is that people either get initially jealous or envious, or jump into something new cautiously optimistic and then think, “This is it?” The reason for that is because they don’t know about the law of attraction (and how you’re constantly attracting better situations vibrationally as you line up with them) and they view their limiting beliefs as if they’re facts. You can and should question your beliefs. But far too many people think they’re just the way the world is. Visualize If you feel positive about what’s happened, and understand what part you have to play in releasing resistance, this would be the time to visualize manifesting more of what you want. You now know your work is paying off. You can notice things that may not be 100% of what you want, and visualize yourself getting what you actually want. I have previously written about why you should be feeling optimistic when you visualize. So, don’t do this if you think it’s impossible. Celebrate! These Signs of Land are worth celebrating (milking) even if they’re not the actual big desire. The joy is in the journey. You did it. You manifested breaking the limiting belief that told you this thing was impossible. Now there is more work to do, but you should remember if you can break one limiting belief, then you can break others. You should be very proud to manifest proving your limiting beliefs are not facts and that you’re capable of improving your life through this process.

    There’s Grace For Those Who Face (Their "Demons")

    This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit lawofattraction.substack.com I believe there is grace for people who are actively asking for help (vibrationally) and doing the difficult work to face their limiting beliefs and let their stored emotions come up mindfully. I may come at this from a sort of Christian background, but I’ll explain what I mean, and I’m not out to convert people. I imagine everyone reading this article is on the narrow road of self-improvement in these ways already anyway. But, I’ll explain what I mean and maybe it will be helpful. So many people who hear about the law of attraction think that if they have emotions of fear, that means that they will attract something awful, something they fear. You may even have seen people joke that they “fear” having lots of money. This is a common misconception of what the law of attraction is. I’ve written about how the law of attraction is misunderstood (even by some who say they believe it). When you are afraid you may attract situations that bring up that fear, but if you go with the flow, and are not resistant, the end result won’t be bad. You are likely catastrophizing which means the fear you’re currently experiencing is actually the worst it will get. It’s the resistance that hurts us. A leaf may float in the breeze or ride a current on a river. It’s unresistant and can have a pleasant trip. But if you are like a rock (or get stuck up against a rock) in a river and the day gets windy, you will have large waves pressing against you. It will be a completely different experience. If you’re a Christian, the wind in that example is the Holy Spirit. John 3:8 The wind/breath/spirit blows where it wishes. You hear its sound, but you do not know where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the wind/breath/spirit.” The word for sound is also noise, and it makes me think of the word “vibration.” The word for spirit is the same word used for wind and breath. We feel the wind currents and can go with the flow or resist it. But, for the non-Christians, you can view it as the universe or your subconscious knowing what’s best for you. And, it is best for you to face the limiting beliefs you hold. And, it is best for you to get rid of the negative feelings that have been stored in your body (put there by past resistance). I call it emotional vomit, because those things are toxic, and the body has a natural desire to get rid of toxic waste you don’t need. Your subconscious mind knows that and keeps bringing you into situations that can trigger those emotions so that you can “vomit” them out. When you’re feeling sick to your stomach and feel the need to vomit, you hate that feeling. But you inevitably feel better when you get it out of your system. “Better out than in,” as Shrek would say.

    Don't Blame the Algorithm - You Control What You See

    This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit lawofattraction.substack.com Last week I wrote on Substack a lot more than I usually do. But I realized I needed to take a break from Substack. I still visited Notes and posted a couple of things. But I was getting frustrated by the stuff I saw. It all felt “so negative.” I can usually look at the 3D “negative” stuff going on in light of a higher perspective and not be as troubled by it as I was. Because I am normally able to do this, and because of the law of attraction, I knew that it wasn’t the algorithm’s fault, something was going on inside of me to cause this. Things can be going horribly wrong but I can see great works of writing concerning those things that, even though it’s recounting awful events, it’s the creativity and care that I notice and “vibe with.” But I was noticing people being dismissive of others who were different than they were, and a lot of “complaining.” I would guess I see people complain on Substack all of the time, but usually, I would be focused on how well they were doing it, making a logical argument and emotionally moving others. Instead, I felt like people were just complaining and being angry together. And, I am sure that other people who saw the exact same posts I did, did not notice anything different or were actually being emotionally uplifted by what they saw. When you notice things that rub you the wrong way, do you continually come back for more? Do you block or mute the people? They don’t have the “right” to be heard. You have the ability to curate your social media feeds. This is one place you have the power. By not removing things that aggravate you, the power, responsibility, or blame is on you, not the algorithm. Should you block people? I wrote that article about blocking and/or muting people who are trying to overstep your boundaries. I think it’s absolutely right to do that. But, sometimes you’ll see people in your feed that you disagree with, some who even mock something that you love. But those people may bring in good, beneficial, uplifting posts at other times. This is where I struggle. If I blocked everyone who mocked something I believed in, eventually I might not have anyone on my social media feed. Perhaps that’s just a limiting belief. For now, I figure I will let them stay in the feed, and work on myself, such as limiting my time on the platform. Your Mood Attracts Samskaras are old emotional wounds that have not been let go yet. As you hold on to them by resisting feeling them, they continually attract more situations to bring them up to the surface. Your triggers can be so very healing if you let them be.

    Getting Siloed Into Parallel Realities

    I watched a recent video from Truthstream Media and wanted to write about it. I will share a small clip, but you should check out the full video. This separating people (into different comments) by sex seems to be an Instagram issue and since they’re owned by Facebook (Meta) then Facebook likely has the same issues. I know that YouTube will show your (logged-in) comments on the top even if they’re at the bottom of the comment list or hidden from the public. I don’t know if YouTube has this exact issue, but people (including myself) have been complaining about comments just being removed even if they’re from the creator of the video. I have multiple YouTube accounts and sometimes I log into hardly ever used ones as well. You will see drastically different types of videos when you log in. I’m just not sure if it has this exact comment issue, although you all can test it yourself. Later in the video, you see comments on a Biden video being separated by political leaning. I considered writing about this on the Drama of It All Substack because I wanted to mention the fact that social media companies are attempting to “save” the consumers of that media from seeing comments they might not want to see. There is a Drama Triangle dynamic here. But I want to focus more on the various worlds we attract. People self sort into groups naturally. This is why our political commentary channels are designated as right (Republican) vs left (Democrat). You could argue that’s not even that natural, but it’s a lot more natural than hearing completely different commentary while watching the exact same show. And that’s essentially what’s happening with the comment sections. The woman in the video was right that we look to the comments to hear what other people think. It’s natural for us to do that. There’s a tendency to want to fit into the group as we’re a social species. Throughout human history, being part of a group has been crucial for survival. Fitting in with a group enhances security, resources, and support. Being accepted by others reduces the risk of being ostracized or left out, which could lead to isolation and potential danger. Our brains think we’re in literal danger if we don’t fit in and it stresses us out. The problem is who are you fitting in with? The video of a woman complaining that her boyfriend had not come over when he said he would be coming over could and should be criticized. She’s playing “victim” and labeling him as a “persecutor” and it’s causing her to feel powerless. That’s not healthy behavior to take to social media and complain your boyfriend hasn’t shown up in such a manner. But if you’re logged into the platform as a girl (presumably) you will be shown other girls’ comments that perpetuate the dramatic hysteria as “normal.” So if you see a bunch of comments acting like something is normal, you may believe that it’s a good sampling, and if no one agrees with your opinion you will feel left out. People conform to others (Research the Asch Line Experiment). Please watch the whole TruthStream Media video. She talks about how comments change people’s opinions and how comments with “likes” have more weight, but those “likes” can be paid for with bot farms. Social media platforms are trying to figure out what you believe and show you more of it so you’ll stay on their platform. I remember going on Facebook and editing what they thought were my political preferences. I wanted to share how to do that, but I can’t find that option any longer. But while I was there looking, I found this: Mine was on the default because I never knew this was here. It was set to “reduce” which means I saw less of content that had been fact-checked. Some people may have chosen to “reduce more” and then they would see those fact-checked stories less often and possibly never. Fact-checked articles or videos lean more Republican in my experience. That’s another way to sort people into political groups. We Attract Our Comments The algorithms are taking data points from your sex if you input that into the platform. I think many platforms may be taking the control of those algorithms away from you. Minds did ask me if I wanted to see content that is more disagreeable, so they’re an exception to that. But they all want to try to show you things you’ll be interested in. So they’re tracking what you interact with. When you “like” things, you will inevitably see more things like that. You have the ability to join different groups on sites like Facebook, Minds, and Twitter (X). You can choose not to join groups that get you upset. We have personal responsibility to choose what we do or don’t do and all of those actions influence what we see, as always. You can also break free from those comment silos by logging out of the platform and looking at the post/video from a fresh logged-out perspective. However, sometimes Facebook (and maybe other platforms) require you to be logged in to view some things. You can also choose to view “most recent” or “all comments.” I hate that Facebook tries to pick and choose which comments are shown. I always click on the “all comments” option. You have the power to influence your social media world. You could even try having two accounts, one female and one male to see what the platforms might not be showing you. You could also get off of social media and into the real world where people are not able to stop you from hearing everyone’s comments on a topic. I think it’s beneficial to not get trapped into an echo chamber where you never hear criticisms of what you believe, but I also don’t think it’s beneficial to constantly listen to people who disagree with you just because you’re afraid to be stuck in an echo chamber. I think there is a happy medium. The Trump Assassination Attempt I wrote the beginning portion of this article before Trump was shot at. But when I kept seeing people insist that the shooting was fake, even if the media claims it was real but just a series of mistakes, I felt like I should bring it up here. To those with a conspiratorial Drama Triangle mindset, all of the oddities lead them to think it was faked and Trump really wasn’t shot. They would claim that it’s fake blood and the crowd are crisis actors. One comment suggests that because there are lots of women there, there should be total hysteria of screaming and inconsolable women, and because there aren’t they’re faking it. That is a limiting belief. It’s worth questioning. Is there another reason why they wouldn’t run? First, Coleman pointed out, “freeze” (not just fight or flight) is a reaction that some have to terrifying situations. But, these are also Trump supporters and not Democrats (who love to play victim and over-react to things). Trump & Tucker Carlson seemed to believe they stayed because they were worried about their leader. There are other possible reasons for what happened than it being “faked.” Depending on your social media accounts, you may be surrounded by people who think it’s all fake. I had a brief interaction with someone I used to chat with a lot and brought up the Illuminati card. I don’t know what it means, but I saw his reaction and he thought the card meant “it’s all scripted.” That’s ascribing meaning to the card. There could be other meanings, and I’m still open to hearing them. I’m not surrounded by people who think this card means it’s all fake any longer. But maybe I would have been if I had taken different (or not taken) actions in my past. Our actions are what lead us into echo chambers or out of them. The exact same oddities of the assassination attempt are being used to say that the secret service or the deep state wanted him dead or didn’t want to stop it. They have mostly the same questions, but they don’t ascribe the same meaning to the oddities. And, of course, you’ve got those who follow the mainstream legacy media and they may believe that it’s all just horrible mistakes. They may even think questioning that it could have been intentional is dangerous. Personally, I always think you should have questions. Here is a video with some of those questions concerning this. An0maly asks, “What do you think?” to get people to leave comments. He’ll see the conflicting comments (unless YouTube deletes them). But you may want to try logging out in order to view them all. Depending on who you surround yourself with, you may be led down a path of thinking of this event the way everyone else does. But who is “everyone else?” It’s usually your clique. But what if they’re wrong? You may feel like you’re a crazy person for not agreeing with “everyone” but they’re not everyone. There are multitudes of ways to view what happened. You can still question things without ascribing meaning. But we as humans are meaning-making machines. Some people feel they need to know what happened. Because they would feel powerless or nervous not knowing. There’s a feeling of instability and that causes fear and anxiety. People race to figure out what happened as soon as possible to lessen that anxiety. You Can’t Make Something False - True Some people say that you can choose to believe something and that will make it true. So if you choose to believe he faked it, then you will enter some reality or timeline in which he did. And if you choose to believe it was real but the government was in on it, then you will enter a reality in which that is true. I don’t believe that. I do believe that your pre-conceived notions will make you feel as if you are in a reality in which that is true because your brain will ignore everything that goes against it like spiritual blind spots. But just because you’re wearing glasses that keep you from seeing things that disagree with you and laser-focused on what you do believe, d

    Attracting Winning a Truck & Better Health

    The night before last I was lying in bed tired, trying to sleep. I pulled up an Abraham Hicks meditation for physical well-being. I started focusing on how my body is attempting to heal itself. The next day, yesterday, at work I found an announcement from The Red Cross. They were looking for blood donations. And they’re giving away a 2025 RAM truck. And I started thinking about how it would be nice to use the law of attraction to win it. Your Vehicle Says Something About You & Your Life I have had a couple of car problems over the last few years, nothing serious. In fact, every time I went to get it repaired I was pleasantly surprised by how little it cost. But it’s an older vehicle, and it’s a hand-me-down car. Well, in life, when I was growing up I felt like I had to do what other people told me to do. I never felt like I had the option to say, “No.” So my life, in a sense, was a hand-me-down life. I’m attempting to heal from that, and I realize that at some point my attempts to control my life and be more authentic may result in manifesting a new vehicle to drive through life in, literally and metaphorically. That’s the plan anyway. So, I have a belief that I could manifest a new vehicle due to my personal work of healing myself. And I’ve written about how I attracted getting products for free before. It used to just be a few small-ticket items, then I graduated to getting higher-ticket items, and now I manifested getting invited to Amazon’s Vine program with the chance of some very expensive items and more options to choose from. I’ve been enjoying my grounding bed sheet and looking forward to my new nut/soy milk maker. So, I have a belief that I can attract items for free and a belief that if I have been working on my mindset and self in this way then I should be able to attract a new vehicle (which represents a new way to drive through life). So I’ve been visualizing myself getting a phone call announcing I won it, having to ask someone to drive me to pick it up so I can drive it back, and sitting in the driver’s seat. What If I Don’t Win It? I bet you all are wondering how I will feel if I don’t win it. Isn’t it stupid to tell people about the giveaway because if my readers decide to enter that will weaken my chances? Guess what, you don’t have to give blood to be entered. You can just email them to enter. Now you all can enter even without considering giving blood. Does that weaken my chance? No. Whoever is most vibrationally aligned wins. If it’s me, then it doesn’t matter how many other people enter. But what if it’s not me? How Will I Feel If I Don’t Win? I mentioned in my article on getting a better job that sometimes you attract being fired in order to get a better job. If I can see the benefits of getting fired or dumped, not winning a contest won’t matter. And, the more you visualize and meditate on the possibility of good things heading your way, the more your brain is being attuned to noticing other ways in which healing can occur and thus more good things can be attracted. “My Health Is Improving” Revisited I started this article out saying that the night before last I was focused on how my body is attempting to heal itself. I have asked for healing so much in the past, that I know it’s available vibrationally. I just need to allow it. So I was focusing while meditating on feeling the vibration of allowing. When I heard about the Red Cross giveaway and how you don’t need to give blood to win, it didn’t deter me… when I saw the ad I thought, I feel like giving blood again. It’s been a while. I last gave blood in New York, and I hadn’t been there for almost 10 years. I downloaded the Red Cross app and looked up places to donate. They asked me what kind of donation I would like to give. I have never done a PowerRed donation before, so I watched some videos about it. I found out that there are actual health benefits to donating your blood. Who knew? Apparently, you can dump some of those toxic “forever chemicals” from your body into your donation bag to give to other people. Supposedly this doesn’t harm the recipients. There’s some discussion about that in the comments section. Could Donating Blood Help My Physical Health? So, could donating my blood actually help with my health? Is this desire to donate blood again a sign that my body is ready to detox those forever chemicals? It’s something I’m considering. We’ll see how it goes. My last blood tests show I’m pretty normal in what all was checked. You do have to have a minimum weight to do the Power Red donation. I don’t want to be as heavy as I am right now, but I do weigh enough currently. Perhaps I have been miswanting how heavy I weigh for this very purpose? I’m contemplating the idea that donating my blood might improve my health enough that I could find it easier to lose weight in addition to losing toxic chemicals. So maybe I won’t be able to do the Power Red version in the future. But losing weight wouldn’t stop me from donating the normal blood donation in the future. Everything I’ve written about here is about becoming more optimistic about my future. Whether or not either of these things happens, doesn’t matter as much as the visualization and contemplation do. Are you going to enter the contest as well? Would you consider donating blood to get health benefits such as ridding yourself of toxins? This is a free post so feel free to share it (you can earn great rewards for referring people to this Substack now!). Also, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.

    What Your Car Troubles Say About You

    Your driving can say a lot about you. I bet they could make a quiz asking about your driving style and have somewhat accurate results for what your take on life is also. I believe what vehicle we drive says a lot about us if we could see the correlations. What type of vehicle you drive, and what goes wrong with it, are all likely saying a lot about you. Wouldn’t you like to know what it’s saying? As I was turning the steering wheel the other day and it was moaning and whining, I thought about that time I stood up after physical therapy and sighed. My dad heard me and suddenly he thought my back pain was worse than he had originally perceived it to be. I think I was more tired than in pain, but yes, I moan, cry out, or sigh when I get up at times. I forgot he was there. I probably would have not made a noise had I remembered he was in the house that day. Yes, it hurts when I stand up from a seated position. When my car is getting ready to move directions it moans. When I get ready to move directions I moan. Is it correlated? What do you think? I think it probably is. My Car, Myself: A Dictionary of the Psychological Link to You And Your Car Issues Michael J. Lincoln, Ph. D. wrote this book, “My Car, Myself” to give people the chance to understand the correlation. I bought this book. I only have a few problems with my car. I recently fixed one. I can look those up and see if it seems accurate or not. But I can’t tell if every dictionary term in this book would be accurate for others. And, I think, like a dream, the interpretation could or should be best done by the person having the issue. Like I mentioned with the moaning steering wheel. I will share a couple of examples, but I don’t want to share too much from the book, so that it takes away revenue from Michael. Below is some of the dictionary entry for Steering Wheel. Before this entry is Power Steering, and after there’s more about Steering Wheel Anti-Theft Device, and Steering Wheel Lock. So there are a few entries for the wheel. I don’t think those others are relevant to a wheel whining though. Steering Wheel “Direction-determination disruption.” They are having real problems with conflicted motivations, dysfunctional decision processes, and self-direction difficulties. They can’t arrive at an effective goal-selection or intention-implementation process at present. It is the result of severely dysfunctional family distortions of their direction-determination system. They are being given intense feedback that they simply must take charge of their life, yet they can no longer afford to be at the mercy of the family’s disruptive processes. Steering Wheel Position Adjustment “Generalized Discomfort.” No matter how hard they try, they just can’t seem to find a smoothly functioning place to be coming from in their direction-determination. Many internal conflicts and dysfunctional intervention programs are arising from their formative family experience, with the result that there is just no workable position from which they can operate. They are being promoted to work on clearing the dysfunctional self-direction distortions generated by their formative experience. You can see some similarities between those that come from the “steering wheel” by itself. But they are slightly different. I know that I have conflicts between the way I was brought up and what I “should” be doing for a living (according to family). It was assumed that I should go to college and get a stable job working for someone else. But I have a desire to work for myself, and with that comes with (what looks like to others) instability. I think if you can have faith in the law of attraction, you can feel stable in those laws of the universe regardless of what your job is. But trust me, that conflicts with the way I grew up. I can see how this definition of the problem could say something about me. I also want to point out that I’m working to fix my back pain (with the physical therapy). It’s probably good to point out that after my real good physical therapy session, the next day I had a really stressful day at work. I wrote about it on my other Substack publication, The Drama of It All. I learned from that experience that I am more capable than I usually give myself credit for. I can see that healing myself physically, is causing emotional healing. And, it could be that when I am completely healed, I will manifest a different vehicle (without this trouble) or get it fixed somehow. I also had a problem with my car making loud noise because something was wrong with the muffler. Here’s that definition. Muffler (Absorbs the loud sound of the internal combustion engine explosions that provide the power) “Fear farts.” Something in their current situation is generating a gripping anxiety and as yet indigestible ideas, along with a sense of responsibility-overload and the associated resentment. They have a considerable amount of uneasiness and agitated anticipation of aggravating developments. They are implication-catastrophizing and operating from generalized dread. These are vague and intangible fears about things that “go bump in the night,” the “nameless terrors of which they dare not speak.” It came from a “magical mystery tour” family experience in which they could never tell when and what piece of excrement would come off the wall at them, just that it would. They need to develop a stronger sense of confidence in themselves and of safety in the world through building up their ability to be “at cause” instead of “at effect.” I grew up with a lady taking care of me and my brother who would have fits at doing something innocuous. If something wasn’t done the way she particularly wanted it done, then I would get yelled at terribly. I tried to become a “mind-reader” (which is a cognitive distortion). I was walking on eggshells around her. But that didn’t help. There was this one time her clothes were in the washer machine. I wanted to do a load of laundry. I took hers out, and I could have put them in the dryer, but I worried, “What if they shrink? What if I put them on the ‘wrong’ setting and she yells at me?” So I figured, since they would be wet all day anyway, I could just set them on the washer, do my load, and put them back in the washer. No harm would have been done. But I still got yelled at for not simply doing them for her. There was no way to win besides just not doing my laundry at all. I definitely have experience where I “could never tell when and what piece of excrement would come off the wall at (me), just that it would,” in my background. I’m having to heal myself from that anxiety. I don’t blame her, as it probably started before I “attracted” her into my life. But I know I have had this issue for a long, long time. I know about catastrophizing because I did it and can once in a while still do it. At least I recognize it now and can talk myself out of it a bit. I am happy to report the muffler problem was fixed and it was a lot cheaper than I expected. I also want to note that after fixing that muffler problem, I started my physical therapy, and had that day at work that made me realize how capable I am even when life throws excrement at me. Oil Leak “Running out of steam.” They are feeling run down and increasingly amotivational recently. It is the result of a co-dependent and/or “serve-aholic” pattern, in which they fail to take their own needs into sufficient consideration. It began in a demanding dysfunctional family. They are in need of learning where their responsibilities leave off, and those of the world around them begin. Well, hell, that’s why I write about the drama triangle and am so damned interested in it. I know I used to be a “rescuer” trying to save people, taking on more responsibility than I should have, with the weight of the world on my shoulders. What I love about the law of attraction is that I can let go of that feeling of needing to be responsible for others and their life. Although, I’ll admit, you could theoretically still have that feeling within the law of attraction perspective, if you think you’re attracting all the “evil” in the world and it’s “all on you” to clean it up. My car is still leaking oil. So, I suppose I’m still struggling with this in some ways. Sometimes I feel as if I “should” do more than my fair share. I’m aware of it. Sometimes I feel like I should write articles because people are subbed and paying me money. I want them to get what they’re paying for. And I want to do a great job with my other gigs, etc. But this is why I meditate. This is why I study the drama triangle and am so laser focused on it and personal responsibility. It’s why I wrote that it’s good to take care of ourselves first and that doesn’t make us narcissistic. It makes us loving. But, here I am writing, and not relaxing today. It will take time to completely heal. But I know I’m doing a lot better than I used to. Well, that was 3 out of 3 being pretty accurate to me. If you’re interested in this subject, check out his book. It’s not on Amazon and I get no referral money from it. Physical Symptoms & Signs And if you’re interested in finding out more about what your physical body aches and pains may be about, I would suggest looking up those terms with “German New Medicine” attached to the key words in a search engine. I discussed how I manifested Hypothyroidism in this video. I read through some of the German New Medicine perspective on the thyroid and what the spiritual or mental implications or causes are. Hypothyroidism can lead to a lack of energy. Isn’t it interesting that the oil leak was about “running out of steam” too and I manifested both? Car Accidents I once mentioned on Notes that I manifested an accident. I also watched other people get into a vehicular accident and it seemed to be like they

    Milking Good Things - A Change of Pace

    We have a tendency, due to past momentum of thinking negatively, to discard our positive feelings when they occur. Once you notice it you can’t stop noticing it. If you have been picked on, teased, or abused because of your looks, you may find it very difficult to accept a compliment on looking nice today. If you are used to meeting inconsiderate people, meeting someone who is considerate may be a nice change of pace. But rather than appreciate it, you’ll swipe it away with thoughts such as, “Maybe he’s playing games and trying to get something from me,” or, “It’s a shame most people are so inconsiderate, that this person stands out.” Why Can’t You Be Happy? Why can’t you let yourself enjoy the positive feelings when they occur? It is momentum as I’ve said. You have been thinking negatively about these topics for so long that when something doesn’t match your beliefs about a subject, it can cause cognitive dissonance. God-Source, the universe, your higher self, your inner being (however you want to think about it) is attracting positive situations into your life all of the time. But we have these blinders on (our negative, limiting beliefs) that keep us from seeing and appreciating the good there is out there. Question Your Beliefs Beliefs are thoughts you’ve continued to think over and over and usually started when you were a child and were simply trying to make sense of the world. Your parents, friends, or teachers may have told you something and then you start to see those patterns playing out and simply believed them, rather than question if there were examples when those beliefs were not true. The question, “Is it true?” is important to ask when you notice a negative, limiting belief of yours. Milk The Good Experiences If you have a belief that people are inconsiderate and you see someone being kind and thoughtful, rather than immediately re-membering (playing over your memories of people who are inconsiderate reinforcing your negative beliefs), take time out to focus on appreciating this person. Your brain is experiencing cognitive dissonance and it is trying to get back to your normal pattern of thought. As Dr. Joe Dispenza says “neurons that fire together wire together.” In this example, you have created a link between people and inconsiderate acts. Your brain is not used to putting people and considerate acts together. But you can start to create new associations. It starts with appreciating that a person who is being considerate exists. Notice it. When you first start to milk an experience like this it may feel like a fluke. That’s okay. It takes time for your brain to open and start to associate the opposite of something you’ve had a long habit of thinking. Start New Affirmations But if you do this enough, noticing every time someone is considerate, eventually you break your old belief that all people are inconsiderate. You can then start new affirmations for yourself such as, “I meet considerate people.” You should believe an affirmation when you say it or think it. You shouldn’t lie to yourself. But at this point, you should believe this affirmation because you’ve had experiences meeting them. Other Examples I gave a pretty clear example in thinking most people are inconsiderate and shifting that belief through appreciation and then affirmations. You will have to be mindful and check where you have specific negative, limiting beliefs and milk when you have good experiences that counteract those beliefs. Another belief could be, “I don’t have enough money to buy that.” Remember, you should believe your affirmation, so this won’t work in circumstances where you don’t have credit, but here’s an example. You could ask yourself, “Is it true? Is it true that I don’t have enough money to buy it?” You may find out that you could buy it if you put it on credit. It isn’t wise to buy it on credit if you don’t have the cash to pay it off. But the belief that you can’t buy it is wrong. You could appreciate that you could buy it. You have the freedom to buy it on credit if you wanted to. You don’t want to buy it on credit. You want to focus on appreciating the fact that you have freedom and you could buy it if you wanted to. But you don’t want to right now. Another limiting belief could be, “I can’t do this/that.” A lot of people have a fixed mindset in that they don’t believe they have the power to learn and grow. We also see other people doing things that took them a long time to master, but they do it so well and we don’t see the work put into it that we think that they had some innate talent that we will never have. Is it true that you can’t do that thing? Try to get a growth mindset and remind yourself that you have learned to do a lot of things in the past and you can learn how to do something new in the same way. You can search online for video tutorials or groups on how to do something and learn a lot that way. You want to appreciate all the ways in which you could learn and have learned in the past. Milking Good Thoughts & Emotions You don’t have to do anything physical. Simply emotionally and mentally hold on to and appreciate the good thoughts and emotions that you are having. I was driving to work last Friday and I passed by a dock on the lake. For some reason, the sun was hitting it the right way, and emotionally I’d time-traveled back to fishing on the dock with my mother and brother in the summer. The same emotion of loving the sun’s warmth and calm, relaxed feeling rushed over me. But, of course, there was traffic around and I was back in the real world in a few seconds. But rather than simply think of the emotion as a fluke, I appreciated it. I had attracted that very peaceful emotion into my life. I took that attraction of emotion to be a great sign of more to come. Oftentimes people will have a flashback to a positive memory when they hear an older song or smell some familiar smell. That is a time to milk those positive emotions and if you can, sit quietly and try to feel that feeling for as long as possible, appreciating it. But sometimes people have negative emotions wrapped up in it. What if you’re remembering a really great time with a lost love and then you think that person was really cruel at some other time, or you really miss that person and think you’ll never be able to feel that love again? These are the times to truly appreciate the positive moments the most. In the case of thinking you will never have that love again, I would say, “You’re feeling that love right now.” That’s the point. The emotion that you think you will never have again just popped into your heart. You attracted that loving feeling. The belief that you will never have that feeling again is proved wrong because you just felt it. You have a belief that you need another person to make you feel that feeling of love, but that’s wrong. I recently wrote about the idea that we think other people will make us feel the feeling of love. It’s wrong. The feeling of love comes from us. Steer Your Mind You may not be able to control those negative associations from popping into your head when you feel positive emotions (seemingly out of nowhere). But you do have the capability to steer your mind into appreciating the positive event or emotion that just happened rather than allowing yourself to turn back to wallowing again. Just because you have created those associations in the past doesn’t mean that you are stuck that way. You can create new associations with things. I made this video a while back about creating new associations or “vibrational anchors.” You have the capability to create new meanings of events and new associations. Whenever something makes you feel good you should milk the hell out of it. Appreciate that you have the ability to feel this way. Appreciate that you are learning that you have this ability. Appreciate that you know how momentum works better now, because, although momentum of negative thoughts sucks, you can turn your mind around and get momentum of positive thoughts. You are in control over what you spend your time thinking about. As I said thoughts will pop into your mind based on past associations but you don’t have to milk the negative thoughts, just go back to what you can appreciate and focus on where your power is.

    Episode 5: The Power of “Let’s Go, Brandon!”Episode 5: The Power of “Let’s Go, Brandon!”

    Yes, the phrase, "F**k Joe Biden," may be about placing Joe as the "Persecutor" and the US citizens as the "Victim," in the drama triangle. That really depends on the person. However, I would suggest that the phrase, "Let's Go, Brandon," re-brands it, so to speak, in a show of power. The phrase, "Let's Go, Brandon" has multiple meanings and means different things to different people. To me, it means something like, "F**k you mainstream-corporate media propaganda. We don't believe you. Joe Biden sucks as President." To me, it's about being authentic and vocal, and unifying with the rest of the citizens who have been censored for so long. What does it mean to you? Feel free to leave a comment on the podcast page on the website. In this podcast I read through the article, "‘Let’s go Brandon’ is more than just a funny anti-Biden meme. It empowers Americans against the ‘fact-checkers’ and censors" by Robert Bridge and add some commentary. I'll leave links below to everything I discussed in the episode. The phrase "Let's Go, Brandon!" being more viral than any disease shows that people are finally finding their voice and realizing they're not alone. The media has censored people for so long that they felt like they were the only ones thinking these thoughts. Censorship creates echo chambers and then the mainstream narrative drowns out what they don't want you to think about. But people aren't allowing themselves to be censored as much and they're finding out they're not alone. I also discuss Biden seemingly trying to co-opt the phrase. But I don't believe he'll be powerful enough to do it. So take a listen, and enjoy! Mentioned in the podcast: ‘Let’s go Brandon’ is more than just a funny anti-Biden meme.

    Episode 4: Tipping the Scales of Justice & the Minnesota RiotsEpisode 4: Tipping the Scales of Justice & the Minnesota Riots

    Tipping the Scales of Justice "Unequal weights are an abomination to the Lord, and false scales are not good." Proverbs 20:23 Democrats have all, ignorantly, been weighing in how they believe the George Floyd trial should go. If you are not a jury member listening to all of the evidence and hearing all of the discussions, then you are ignorant. In my opinion, those who are ignorant should not say publicly what the verdict should be. Maxine Waters, Ilhan Omar, Joe Biden and the Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey have all weighed in on their beliefs after the judge warned elected officials to be careful. The judge said, "I wish elected officials would stop talking about this case, especially in a manner that is disrespectful to the rule of law and to the judicial branch and our function. I think if they want to give their opinions, they should do so in a respectful-- and in a manner that is consistent with their oath to the constitution, to respect a co-equal branch of government." In the past, when people has faith in the judicial branch of the government, people would defer to the jury's opinion because they were the ones who say all the evidence. Now people make decisions, on limited evidence, before there is even a trial. This is another sign that there is a lack of faith in our government these days. Minnesota Riots My family lives in Minnesota and I grew up close to this area. I see the people as if they could be my family. Because of that, I empathize with them having to deal with the riots. I like knowing that police are there protecting people from criminals. I don't like the police feeling unwanted, or undesired because of a few people. In this podcast, I also discuss feeling a sense of safety because of police, versus feeling safety because of the law of attraction or my faith in God-Source. Shifting Thoughts From Worry to Faith I go through my thought process as I discuss what upsets me about this situation. And I show how I challenge my beliefs to get to a more positive mindset. The beginning starts with me being frustrated and angry. Though I am pretty peaceful, compared to the general hysterics seen these days. Throughout the podcast I discuss my other views based on the law of attraction. And, eventually, I get to a place of feeling like everything is working out in the large picture. I apologize if I ramble too much or get side-tracked too much for your liking, but this is just how my mind works through things when I'm out of alignment with God-Source and trying to find my way back into alignment. Hopefully someone finds this glimpse into my thought processes helpful. Thoughts After the Verdict The jury came back very quickly on this case and judged him as guilty on all counts. Because of the social atmosphere it is difficult to know if they did so based on the evidence, fear, or prejudice. I truly don't have faith in our government at this point, but I could have said that yesterday. My belief that the government may not be fair and just has no bearing on my belief that the law of attraction is just and always fair. I personally think all the "rot in hell" and celebrating that people are doing is in bad taste. Many have lost all empathy. It reminds me of Pharisees and Jews cheering on Jesus being sentenced to death. Some would hate that comparison, but I know most cops take on the role they do to protect people. Also my comparison here is much more for the evil glee in the people who sent someone to death/hell, than it was about the person found guilty. I find celebrating, publicly, whenever anyone has something bad happen to them is childish, immature behavior. There is actually a word for it in German, Schadenfreude. The word I focused on for the new year was Compersion or Mudita, which is actually the opposite of this Schadenfreude. That kind of goes along with what I talk about in the podcast of tuning to the opposite of that which you do not like. From outside of the drama triangle, I do have a belief that everyone is trying the best they can in life. People make mistakes, and deadly ones at that. I don't doubt he was trying to help people that day. But this is Rose-Colored news, of course I would say that. People would say I have rose-colored glasses on thinking that he was trying to help people. Those who have no empathy for others are increasing as the drama does. Sooner or later people will end up in the same situation (vibrationally) and feel the effects of what they're doing right now. I don't wish that on folks. It's just what happens until they hit rock bottom and make a change. I guess this means in the future we'll be very kind, and sympathetic and understanding. Hope you enjoy the podcast.

    Episode 3: Systemic Racism and the Law of AttractionEpisode 3: Systemic Racism and the Law of Attraction

    Systemic racism is defined as a form of racism that is embedded through laws within society or an organization. According to that definition, when Target decided to pledge to spend more than 2 Billion dollars at Black-Owned Businesses to fight systemic racism, they actually were deciding to become it. A business can only sell so many products. And if you decide to sell more Black-Owned products, you are inevitably deciding to cut those of other skin colors out of your business. It's a bold, racist move they've made. In this podcast episode, I discuss racism from a law of attraction perspective. I also illustrate the drama triangle dynamics involved in it. In this case, Target is taking on the Savior role and deciding the black business owners are a "Victim", unable to sell their own products and in need of help. I forgot to mention in the podcast, if someone says that what Target did was right/moral, this means that they identify as a "savior" (hero/social justice warrior) trying to protect Black-Business Owners, whom they view as a "victims". These people will then turn to anyone who disagrees with them (those who say that what Target did was racist) and place them into the "persecutor" role. They do this because they don't want their drama triangle game to end. There is actually an acronym for this turn-around, DARVO. DARVO stands for deny, attack, and reverse victim and offender. If you understand this, it makes it a lot easier to not get pulled back into the drama with people who don't want to give drama up. Police Altercations At the end of the podcast I also discuss the recent article about the cops who pepper sprayed a Black Army Lieutenant at gunpoint and mention George Floyd. The subject here is how people who feel powerless find each other and how when you feel powerful, you won't end up in situations such as these.

    Episode 2: Vaccine PassportsEpisode 2: Vaccine Passports

    There are people afraid of getting COVID because other people are not getting the COVID-19 vaccine so they want to make vaccine passports required. There are people afraid of having to get an experimental vaccine in order to work, to fly, leave the country, or even go to a sporting event. They both have the same fear. They fear that they don't have power over their body and their health. They think someone else is going to have the power to make them unhealthy. It's the same fear, which means they attract each other according to the law of attraction. In this episode I discuss that fear and feeling of powerlessness. I discuss how it's negatively affecting our society and ruining our media and entertainment, and I also give tips on what to do to get rid of it. One of which is to focus on where you are powerful (in the circle of control).
