It’s the weekend! Coming your way, item #1 on my “ToDo List”: (You can use these symbols: ☐✅).
DAILY “MUST” Routine…
- ✅ “OVERVIEW”: I’m gradually getting this “Law of Attraction” thing figured out. Basically, nobody can put anything into your experience if you don’t want it. It’s up to you to either attract what you want or what you don’t want. That’s it! If there are bad things happening around you, you can acknowledge that they exist, for it is through this that you realize what you want, but only you decide if it will be part of your experience moving forward. You’re better off to say, well if that’s what they want, they can have it, but I choose to take a different path. I choose to be joyful, and if I am joyful all the time, I will only have those things that make me happy and joyful show up in my experience.
- ✅ “JOY & CHILL”: Be Happy, Relax, and Enjoy the Process! This video pretty well wraps up ALL of Abraham Hicks’ teachings! Namely: “I’m going to be as happy as I can be, as often as I can”.
- ✅ “BILLIONS AWAIT YOU”: Check out the video in item #1 again! It’s all in a circle. The money that LF took from you can be replaced by BILLIONS if you follow what is taught in the video mentioned in Item #2.
- ✅ Mother Teresa said “Yes” to peace rallies, “No” to anti-war rallies. Wish LF the best on his journey and be on your way!
- ✅ “NO MORE BADDIES”: Don’t worry about learning lessons from your experience with LF. If you focus on implementing the “Law of Attraction”, no more bad people will come into your future, so you won’t have to learn lessons to deal with them.
- ✅ “CONFRONTATIONAL SITUATION”: When in a confrontational situation, “stand up for what you believe”, but learn the “Joe Weider Self-Defense Pressure Points” just in case.
- ✅ “TOXIC PEOPLE”: As Charlie Munger (Warren Buffet’s associate) said, “You need to get them out of your life, even if you have to pay them“.
- ✅ “FORGET THE PAST”: Don’t try to relive the past and say should have said this or that to LF. This video on meditation is a great way to do it! (Shortened version) (The Shortest version). GOAL: EVERY DAY: Meditate For 20 Minutes! Connect To “Your Source”. Remember, the Universe has it covered. You didn’t miss anything and didn’t do anything wrong. Here’s the routine to meditate to each day: (20 Minute Air Conditioner Meditation).
- ✅ “SHOULD THANK LF”: The experience with him taught me what I DON’T want to be in life. It also caused me so much pain that I’ve started down this journey of the “Law of Attraction” to help answer the questions that arose from it.
- ✅ “EASIER THAN YOU THINK”: In Esther Hick’s book “The Law of Attraction”, she states on page #51 “If the negative thought returns – and it may continue to do so for a while – just guide your thoughts more deliberately, and eventually it will not come up again”.
- ✅ “GREAT THING TO HAPPEN”: It was actually great that I met and experienced all that I did with LF. According to Abraham Hicks, we experience life, the good and the bad, to let us know what we want and do not want. What many consider as “BAD” is actually good as it helps you to solidify that you really do not want this, or to be like this person. Because of this experienced with LF, I now know that I do not want to be like him in any way shape or form… Someone who betrays their friends, steals their money, has a legacy of people hating him, and can what really be defined as a REAL LOSER!

Daily Notes
My wife took the kids to viola/violin practice this morning, so I went to Panera Bread for a cup of coffee. Just outside of the main door there was a little tripod on the bush (see photo to the right). I’m not sure if this was left behind, or it was broken and someone’s trash, but I took it inside to the main counter anyway in case someone was looking for it.
I’m not finding any coins anymore. I think I need to go back to an earlier schedule that I used to have when I was finding them. Perhaps I need to more morning work before I go out for the day?
This afternoon, for the first time in a couple of days, I was able to actually (for sure) calm my mind so that I could go into a meditative state. I credit what I’ve been reading about Dr. Edith Eva Eger and her view on forgiveness with this. After getting up from my nap/meditation this afternoon I promptly purchased her Kindle book “The Choice” so that I could read more about her experiences and outlook.
I’m also fascinated with Elon Musk’s journey to the “Meaning of Life”. I remember him saying that if you were depressed you should stay away from German Philosophers and that he found great meaning in the “Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy”. I asked Bing’s Copilot (formerly ChatGPT) about it, and here is what they said:
Ask Copilot: “What does Elon Musk think about “Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy?”
Copilot Answers: Elon Musk has expressed admiration for “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy” by Douglas Adams. This whimsical science fiction series has significantly influenced his thinking and worldview. Here are some insights into Musk’s perspective on this iconic work:
- Positive Influence: Musk considers “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy” as one of his favorite books. He praises the author, Douglas Adams, as a great philosopher and appreciates the book’s positive outlook 12.
- Existential Crisis: During an existential crisis in his youth, Musk turned to various books to explore the meaning of life. “Hitchhiker’s Guide” played a crucial role in shaping his perspective during that time 3.
- Asking the Right Questions: Musk highlights an essential point from the book: sometimes the question is harder than the answer. This idea resonated with him and influenced his approach to problem-solving and innovation 2.
- Grok Chatbot: Interestingly, Musk’s artificial intelligence chatbot called Grok, developed by his company xAI, draws inspiration from “The Hitchhiker’s Guide.” Grok is designed to answer questions with wit and even suggest what questions to ask, alluding to the book’s quirky humor 4.
In summary, Elon Musk’s affinity for “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy” reflects its impact on his thinking, creativity, and approach to life’s big questions.
I saw a video on YouTube about Singapore Noodles, so this got my taste buds a going. I looked at the various restaurants around town that served it, and “Hawkers” came up on the list, so off I went. You can see their offering in the lovely picture I took to the right. Delish! I must say how surprised I was at the small serving for $14. Serving sizes sure have gone down, and prices up, since the pandemic! I started reading the “Praise for The Choice” which is the first few pages of Dr. Edith Eva Eger’s book “The Choice” as I munched away.
I thought I would stop back at Panera Bread for a drink, and actually did my “Deliberate Creative Workshop” while I was there. In today’s session I read about: “Process #6: The Process of Meditation” in my “Ask & It Is Given” Kindle book.
Later this evening I ventured back to Aldi to pick up some “Arctic Bars”, what we used to call those frozen treats as kids. I did find a quarter in a shopping cart that was not totally pushed into its slot, but alas, it was not a “KWF” quarter (see photo to the left). I am always excited to take a picture of these quarters and zoom in on them looking for any signs of “KWF” lettering, but alas, I am usually disappointed.
I’ve been reading that if you are meditating the one thing you will notice is how things seem to happen to you more frequently and those items you have put into the Vortex will materialize. Well, why have I not been finding coins as of late. I seemed to be easily finding them on the ground and such earlier in my journey, but it seems that only Aldi quarters are popping up into my experience as of late. I need to think more on this…
