Losing the "attraction" to the Law of Attraction.


It's been over a year since I started "Attraction Hacker", and it has had its ups and downs. Over the past few months, it's been mostly DOWNS. There are numerous reasons- work, family, other interests, etc. But on reason stands out above all: I lost my attraction to the Law of Attraction.

It's not as though The LoA wasn't working, because in the few months after I started the blog, I went from 0 readers, to over 100 subscribers to my news feed. I was even making a few dollars a week from my Google ads and other affiliates. It was a nice feeling, and I even cyber-connected with others on the LoA journey. But then it stopped.

I'd like to imagine this happens to a lot of people. After the initial excitement wears off, you fall back into old ways and old mental patterns... and eventually, your unconscious mind starts attracting all the same old crap it did before you were practicing the Law of Attraction. How many people were moved by "The Secret", like I was, and are now back at square one?

The big question then becomes: How do you get back to that place of excitement? And my answer is: I don't know.

One thing that has helped me, though, is Joe Vitale's audiobook version of Zero Limits. In it, he discusses the Hawaiian healing technique known as "Ho'oponopono". While Vitale's "The Attractor Factor" is still my favorite of his books, Zero Limits is really good.

It had been months since I even thought about the Law of Attraction or The Secret or anything like that. Then, one of my wife's friends talked about going to a workshop teaching "Ho'oponopono", and it reminded me of Joe Vitale's talk last year, where he mentioned he was releasing a book on the subject. I went to Audible.com, sure enough, the book was available to download to my iPod.

I'd like to say that I was totally re-invigorated and all the old excitement came rushing back... but I can't. Things are better, to be sure. But I've still got a ways to go. And as the books says, I'm continuing to "clean".

Now... I, the "hacker", am asking anyone who stumbles across this post for their "hacks". What do you do or have you done, to stay on the Law of Attraction path?

Greeting, and some advice


It's been a while, but a lot of exciting things have happened in the past few months, and I can only attribute it to the Law of Attraction. First off, I working towards getting out of the corporate rat race, and into my own business, so I devote more time to things I love -- like preaching the news of the LOA. In that vein, I've signed-up with "SuccessTracs", a great coaching program from Peak Potentials.

In the few calls I've had, I've been blown away. I've always been such an independent "do-it-yourself" kind of guy, and I was thinking I could make the switch to my own business with no problem. But my wife had been doing the coaching for a while, and I could see definite changes in her business... so I took the plunge, too. Now, we're using a lot of LOA techniques, and getting my vision as clear as possible. And it's great to have a person tell me straight out, "GET CLEARER!".

It's easy to say, "I want a new house"... but getting clear means "how many rooms?" or "what color is the carpet?" or "what does the front door look like?". If you're working on attracting things into your life... why not attract the EXACT thing you want, in every detail?

I'll be sure to update my progress. Things are looking wonderful.

I'm attracting a ton of work...

Wow, it's been almost 2 weeks since my last post. That, of course, doesn't mean that I've exhausted all ways of "hacking" the Law of Attraction. I've just been super busy with work.

My latest intention: Work will calm down, and I'll have plenty of time each day to attend to Attraction Hacker.

Be Rich AND Happy, and one LoA Misconception

One of the blogs I like to read is the Get Rich Slowly blog. They offer practical wealth-building advice, and the information is usually top-notch. However, 2 recent posts have sort-of "irked" me.

Very quickly, the first one is titled "Which is More Important: Money or Job Satisfaction?". It's my belief that we shouldn't be prioritizing these things, because once we do, we'll always view the 2nd choice as inferior, and consequently attract less of it. Money and Job Satisfaction are of equal importance, and both should be given the highest priority. The comment I posted on the site says it's not a "zero-sum game". There's enough of both to go around, so why settle for less?

Second, and sort of related, is the post "There is No Secret: The Myth of the Law of Attraction". I've actually been struggling with a post I'm working on about the misconceptions behind the LoA. I'm struggling because the entire subject is focused on the negative perceptions, and therefore becomes antithetical to the practice of positive attraction. I really don't want to shift focus to the negativity... but there's still a part of me that wants to "set the record straight", if you will. Consequently, that particular post has been sitting in my "drafts" folder for 3 weeks.

About this particular post, though, he actually sums up his own misconception fairly well:

Wealth requires more than just thought — it requires action.
Exactly. So many people have the misconception that the Law of Attraction stops at "thinking", but that's only the first step. If you're familiar with any NLP theories, you'll know that there is a common thread in that most of them involve a three-step process. In The Secret it's "Ask, Believe, Receive"... but the same idea can be presented as "Think, Feel, Act". All you have to do is look at Rhonda Byrne as the prototype: She didn't just stop at thinking about making The Secret, she opened herself up to receive help and backing, and then went out and made it.

Time Suck O'Meter


Coming from the Simpleology newsletter, is the website "Time Suck O Meter". It's an interesting idea:

Top 1000 most time saving, and
Bottom 1000 most time sucking sites
The site gets its stats from the BrowserBodyguard toolbar, which is supposed to help your web surfing experience stay on task. If you find a site that "sucks time" instead of providing any real productivity, simply mark it as a time-sucker. Conversely, if you find a site that is VERY helpful in your productivity, you can mark that as a time-saver.

The data sample of Time Suck O'Meter is obviously pretty small right now, as there are only 8 sites in the time-saver column, and 11 in the time-sucker column. If more people use the toolbar, though, it could provide a useful way to find sites that will help in day-to-day productivity.

Of course, as it stands now, I'm trying to figure out how "Google Netherlands" can save you time, but "Google Australia" will waste your time. My guess, is that since I don't speak Dutch, I will go to Google NL and immediately leave... but if I go to Google AU, I may actually search for something and waste some time. :) Also, I hope that they have some mechanism in place to prevent an inevitable onslaught of spammers... because right now, some (lots) of the links seem to be pretty "spammy".

Dyer: How to Get what You Really, Really Want.

First off, Congrats to Scott at Keeping the Secret on his recent marriage!

Second, also from Keeping the Secret, is an excellent video from a Wayne Dyer seminar. It's over 2 and a half hours long, and I'm only about a third of the way in, but so far it's absolutely wonderful. Wayne Dyer is such a great speaker, and this video/seminar really has an intimate feel about it.

Set aside some free time, then head to Keeping the Secret to watch.

on a sidenote: I just found out that my "page rank" in Google went from 0 to 3. It doesn't mean a whole lot, I just thought it was kinda cool. Also, Technorati is at 198,242 and Alexa is 860,049. Onward and Upward!

10 Steps To Maximize Your Visualization

I read an interesting article called "12 Steps to Turbo-charge Your Visualisation", and I thought, "I can get those down to 10". So here goes:

  1. Thirty minutes before bed, go to a private, secluded spot.

  2. Get as comfortable as possible- sitting in a comfy chair/position and wearing loose clothing.

  3. Close your eyes, and let all your thoughts drift away - both external and internal.

  4. Imagine one thing which you "choose to have" most. Make it very specific. Either something tangible (new car) or intangible (new job).

  5. Imagine yourself receiving that one thing.

  6. Focus in on the thoughts and feelings you have with that one thing in your possession.

  7. After laying down to sleep, keep your visualization in your head, and let it be the last thing you think about before sleep.

  8. Anytime during the night, if you wake up, clear your mind and visualize your thing again as you fall back to sleep.

  9. After waking up in the morning, start back with Step 2.

  10. Find times throughout your day to take a few moments and repeat Step 4,5, and 6.
I know this is "Law of Attraction 101" for most people, but it never hurts to have a gentle reminder. There have been plenty of times where I'll go days without stopping to visualize, and typically I find myself getting kind of grumpy - or more specifically, my wife starts finding me grumpy. After taking a few moments to myself, I'm usually able to do a "180" and I feel much better.

Law of Attraction in Pop Culture

In a post last Friday, Joe Vitale had a funny "ps":

Last night the famous action-packed movie Die Hard 2, starring Bruce Willis, was on television. The lead character, who barely survived terrorists in the first movie, is again barely surviving bad guys in the second movie. At one point Bruce Willis says, "Why do these things keep happening to me?" I said out loud to the screen, "It's the Attractor Factor, bro." Until he gets clear, he'll keep attracting the same stuff, and never realize he's the magnet. Not being clear makes for a great movie but a lousy life.
I love movies and TV, and pop culture in general, so I started wondering if there are other movies/shows that indirectly reference the Law of Attraction.

1. My Name is Earl



This is a fairly obvious one. In the show, Earl used to be a "bad" guy doing bad stuff and wasting his life away. After he wins the lottery and learns about "karma", he decides to do only good things, and even makes a list of all people he wronged so he can make it up to them. As he's working through the list, we see all sorts of positive things happen to Earl... and when he slips and starts focusing on the negative, we see negative things happen to him.

2. Perfect Strangers



Okay, I may be dating myself a bit, but I used to love this show. Also, it's a classic example of the LoA in action. First off, you have Larry, constantly negative and expecting bad things to happen, and surprise - they do. Then you have fun-loving Balki, who has no concept of "can't" or "impossible", and he always comes out on top. Even when Larry tries to pull him down, Balki moves forward with his plans, and they usually work out great. About that time, Larry decides to follow Balki's plans, but his motivation typically comes from greed and need, and NOT true goodness and desire. Larry will take Balki's plans, go WAY overboard, and fail.

3. American Idol



This is a classic example of the "action" in Law of Attraction. In the preliminary rounds, quite often you see kids say things like "if I don't get picked, I'll die" or "they HAVE to pick me" or something similar. Then, they get in front of the judges and are absolutely horrible singers. It seems like many of these people are living their lives JUST to get on American Idol, and eagerly wait for the next auditions. They aren't in a pure "receiving" state, and therefore won't be able to attract much of anything.

A singer utilizing the LoA will let go of any need to be on American Idol, and spend their time practicing their singing and enjoying the gift they have. All the while, letting their heart and mind be open to endless possibilities around them... and if A.I. is one of those, great!

4. The Breakfast Club



One of my favorite movies from my youth... and also a classic examination of the Law of Attraction. In the beginning, all five students are stuck in their pre-defined roles, and focus their attention on the negative aspects of their lives. Claire tries to play her emotionally distant parents against each other, Andrew is afraid to seen as "weak" by his father, Brian is afraid to be seen as "stupid" by his parents, Bender thinks his life and his father are the worst of all them, and Allison is so afraid of being rejected that she intentionally separates herself from everyone. Not coincidentally, they all seem to have tons of problems, which has led them to Saturday detention.

By the end of the film, they have let go of their preconceived notions, and start to realize that their lives CAN be better. If those characters persist in that notion, they will lead much happier lives.

5. Lost



The LoA problem with "Lost" is right there in the title. The characters focus all their energy on the fact they are lost, and also trying to figure out the strange things that are happening on the island. If they spent their time on the beach focusing on positivity and manifesting an airplane passing by... they could change the name of the show to "Found".

Also, they talk about the people on the island who weren't in the plane wreck as "The Others" - which instantly puts a wall up between them. They should learn, we're all one - there are no "others". If they let that go, then it's quite possible they could build an entire paradise on the island.

Focus on... MindHacks.org


Mind Hacks is an absolutely wonderful website with enough info, that it would probably take months to read through all the archives. It looks like it started about a year-and-half ago with mostly just snippets of news articles about personal development, spirituality, and mind science... and then links to the full articles. Since then, there are posts full of multimedia and articles/stories/thoughts about using the mind to its fullest potential.

The most recent post is a video interview with Burt Goldman on the topic "Who is God?". I'm not too familiar with Goldman, but the video is quite interesting... a bit along the lines of Neil Donald Walsch's stuff.

The only issue I have with the site (and it's just a personal preference), is that there's no easy way to jump back in the archives. You can scroll to the bottom and click "Previous Entries", but I like blogs with an archive list in the menu somewhere... maybe I'm just missing it. Either way, you can just manually type in the URL of the month you want - for example, http://www.mindhacks.org/2007/04/ will bring up all of April 2007 posts.... or http://www.mindhacks.org/2006/07/ will bring up all of July 2006.

Overall, a great site... and it has "Hacks" in the name, so I may be biased.

Michael Losier - Law of Attraction

The book by Michael Losier "Law of Attraction" has been getting a lot of press and attention in the LoA world recently. There's a video on YouTube that has 75,000 views with him talking about how to make the secret work. He has a few other videos in his YouTube profile as well.

On Oprah's XM radio show, she's continuing the LoA theme started with Abraham-Hicks, and last week she talked to Losier about his book and the Law of Attraction. He'll also be a guest THIS Thursday.

The Law of Goog-traction


I love Google. I can't remember how I surfed the web without it... though, I think it was mostly through Webcrawler searches and luck. Now, however, Google does so much more than just search, that I started wondering how to leverage Google's free tools along with manifesting my desires and using the Law of Attraction. Here are a few things I came up with:

1. Blogger



I've used Blogger in some form or another for over 6 years, and in 2003, they were bought by Google. It had been a pretty rudimentary blogging system, and in many cases it still is, but there's a LOT more flexibility now than there had been.

This blog is using the Blogger platform, and by setting up my domain name, I can have all my content hosted here under "attractionhacker.com"... and it costs me nothing. As far as the LoA goes, I find that writing about it is for me the BEST way to practice it. Being able to type everything out really clears my thoughts and allows me to focus.

The great thing about Blogger is how simple it is. If you want to create a blog as just a place to get your thoughts out, and aren't concerned about getting readers, it will literally take a couple of minutes to get up-and-running. Even less if you already have a Google account.

2. Google Reader



Aside from using Google to search, this is probably where I spend the most of my Google-time. I've said this before, but every day I come across a new site/blog that I end up subscribing to in my Reader. Luckily, most of the personal development and LoA blogs only post once or twice a day, so it's still easy enough to keep up with. I have to say, almost all of my posts are inspired in some way by what I've read in my Google Reader... at least to the point that something I read helps me view a topic in a new or interesting way.

Another great thing about Reader is the ease of organization. I've got various folders set up and each folder contains blogs on a particular topic. Right now, I've got folders name "LoA","Finance","Blogging","Life Hacks","Health", and "PD". Some blogs have multiple subjects, and I can easily put those in multiple folders - for example, Today is the Day is in both my "LoA" AND "PD" folders. Then if I want to read only the "LoA" topic, I can click on the folder and it brings up ALL the recent posts from every blog in the folder in one stream. If I see an article I want to read more about, or want to read again later, I can click the little star icon next to it, then choose the "Starred items" and bring up everything I wanted to return to.

Another neat thing, not necessarily LoA-related, is that the Reader will compile your reading trends... so you can see which blogs you read more, which folders you read more, and how many articles you read. Right now, I'm reading on average 40 posts a day, and the blog I read most is Lifehacker.com.

3. Google Notebook



Notebook is a browser add-on that lets you clip and save parts of the website you're on. I find it useful when I run across an article that has some great info I want to remember, but don't want to go back to the entire page. Notebook will save the section I highlight, along with the URL of the site, and when I go to my Notebook homepage it lists everything I saved. My Notebook is currently full of inspiring saying, thoughts, and quotes that I've stumbled across. I also use it when I want to quote something in my post, but I'm not logged-in to Blogger at the time.

4. Google Calendar



I personally use Calendar to keep track of when I want my goals to be accomplished. I sometimes struggle with that from a LoA standpoint, because I feel that part of the "receiving" process is just letting go of things like timelines and just accepting that you're going to get what you desire. But it also helps keep my work schedule straight.

5. Google Groups



Groups encompasses both Usenet groups as well as Google's own groups. While I only read these on occasion and never post, I'll often find interesting discussions. From Usenet, I usually read alt.mind.bending or alt.spiritual.enhancement.... and from Google I check out Keepers of The Secret and The Secret Law of Attraction.

6. Google Video



If you search "Law of Attraction" on Google Video, you'll get a bunch of good results from both YouTube and Google Video... like Michael Losier's Law of Attraction video. I've even been known to post a video or two. A lot of these videos can also be found on The Secret DVD blog.

7. Google Ads



If you're looking to manifest a little $$$... go get yourself a website, post up a few Google ads, and watch the CASH ROLL IN. Just yesterday, I got a whopping $.98! If this keeps up, I just might quit my day job. :)

8. Google Finance



After you get all that mad-money from Google Ads, you'll need someplace to put it. With Google Finance, you can find all the great and public companies and invest in them. Then, just manifest their stock prices tripling in value.

9. Google Documents



If you're looking for a free and robust suite of Office applications, I'd highly suggest Open Office. They've got absolutely everything you could ever want, and it's very similar to Microsoft Office. You can even open and save Word documents or Excel spreadsheets in Open Office... so you don't have to worry about compatibility issues with other people.

However, if you don't want to download and install that software... or just want access to your files from any computer in the world, Google Docs is the way to go. And while I haven't personally used this feature, you can submit blog posts from Google Docs... so if you have a long, thought-out post/article and want to have it accessible on various computers, you could type it up in Docs. Once you're finished, just publish it to your blog.

While I may not list any specific LoA uses, it just makes life (and work) a little easier.

10. Gmail



Gmail is great! It handles Spam like no other, has huge amounts of disk space, and is just easy to organize. I set up tags and folders, and have all my other email addresses forwarded to my Gmail account... where it deposits them into their folder. Then when I reply, I can actually use THAT original email address in the "reply-to" section... so I never have to worry about ANY other email addresses. I can access them from one place.

Another nice thing, is when combined with something like Gmail Drive, I can transfer files (under 10MB) between different computers without needing a USB drive or something else. Most recently, I had a few LoA eBooks on my work computer that I wanted to read at home, but I didn't have my USB drive. So I just uploaded them to Gmail... and then downloaded them on my home computer. Very handy.


Wow... this was longer than I expected. If you have anymore ideas about using Google and the Law of Attraction... feel free to let me know or post them in a comment!

Esther Hicks/ Abraham/ Oprah XM roundup

update (7-16-2007): The links to the mp3s got changed, so they no longer work. You can still download everything from here: http://atthack.podbean.com. I'll update the actual mp3s links here when I get some time.

The Oprah XM Radio interviews with Esther Hicks and Abraham seem to be a really popular destination on this site, so I figured I'd do an end-of-week roundup of all the interviews.

Law of Attraction : Internet Radio sites


I spend about 8 hours a day at work in front of a computer. Most of that time, I'm either looking at code or editing images. To soothe my mind while working, I used to just listen to music (mostly, The Beatles or Radiohead, if you're curious), but a few months ago I wanted something different.

It was then I found a few Law of Attraction themed podcasts, but they weren't able to provide enough content to fill the day, so I went looking for other things to listen to. Then I found a few great internet "radio" sites.




Hay House Radio



I, of course, knew about Louise Hay and Hay House publishing, but hadn't heard of Hay House Radio. As far as Mind-Body stuff goes, this is absolutely the best! There's a ton of Abraham-Hicks, or Wayne Dyer, or Colette Baron-Reid, and MANY, MANY others... all available for free downloads.

While it would take me forever just to get through the archives, I also enjoy just listening to live shows. Sometimes, there are a lot "rebroadcasts", and thankfully there are other places to go if I've already listened to something.





Blog Talk Radio



This site is designed to let ANY blogger have his/her own "radio talk show". The topics run the gamut from politics to sports to religion to scrapbooking to a show dedicated to clearing up myths about Puerto Rico.... almost anything goes.

I first found this site after the Evolving Times show started there. After searching around, I found some other interesting shows as well. Most of the LoA/personal development stuff is listed under the Life section- but be warned: While some are excellent, others are... how should i put this?... still finding "their voice".




Webmaster Radio



Ok, this isn't necessarily Law of Attraction related, but I've spent WAY too much time listening to these shows. The topics are all about the internet, with most being about to make money on it. They've got a fun SEO show, a show about Affiliate marketing, and a show all about Domain name marketing... among many others.

This really appeals to the "geek" in me, but I find it fascinating that there's an entire industry dedicated to getting your website on Google for a specific keyword. People spend thousands of dollars on things like that, too.




As with everything, I'm sure there are MANY other sites out there that offer similar services as these. So feel free to let me know, or leave a comment if you stumble across something.

Esther Hicks on Oprah XM - part 3

This is probably my favorite one, though I really loved the Abraham stuff last week. In this interview, Oprah actually talks about why Esther/Abraham isn't on her TV show. It's something I personally tend to forget - that a LOT of people are just not ready to hear these ideas. You start talking about "energies" and "vibrational beings" and people think you're literally insane. With time, these people can come around.

One of the great things about The Secret movie (even without Abraham) is that it's packaged in a way that is digestible to most people. Most people agree that The Secret is truly just a beginning to a larger universe... but it really is a great beginning. Thankfully, Abraham-Hicks is available for the future steps.

Listen on the web below:


Download part 3 of the Esther Hicks/ Oprah interview.

It also sounds like Oprah's going to be talking about the Law of Attraction even more in future shows. It's too bad XM doesn't have an affiliate program, because I have no problem telling people how great it is.

[update]: if you have problems with downloading from the TinyURL link above, you can try this one.

A Digg-like site focused on the Law of Attraction!


I was driving into work today listening to this podcast about the site Bumpzee, which is similar to Digg but about Affiliate Marketing and SEO. They just recently opened up the site so anyone can create a community, and create a Digg-like site around any topic. My first thought was, "I wonder if someone has done this for Attraction-related blogs".

Cut to: literally 5 minutes ago.

I was checking my stats (I'm obsessed), and I found out that I got 'mad props' from the high Vibe it blog about the Abraham/Oprah audio. I read a bit of the blog, then go to the main page -- a Digg-like site focused on 'positive energy' and a lot of Law of Attraction stuff!!! From the About page:

What is this site?

((( high Vibe it ))) is a place to come to share high vibrations. This site is being made with love and an Open mind. It runs on Open source technology. The site itself is Open to become whatever its Users make it.

The intentions at work here are for the Users of this site to share links to items they come across on the web that bring Joy and positive energy. This is a place to find, submit, and Vibe news stories and other items that resonate with You at a high level.

If most of the mainstream media is adept at mining and profiting from our fears and insecurities, it's about time we turn the tables. It is my belief that high Vibe it will contribute to slowly turning the tide by empowering You to vibe positive stories.
I don't care HOW many times things like this happen... it ALWAYS astounds me. Feel free to check out my newly created profile and add me as a friend. Also, I'm going to remove my "Digg This!" links below and add a "high Vibe it" link, before the end of the day.

A few of my recent successes.


The past few days have held a few watermark moments in my recent blogging endeavour, and I want to take a few moments and give thanks to the Universe, and the people in it, for making them happen.

First, I love statistics - especially my blog's stats. It's not really about how MANY people visit, it's more about how DIVERSIFIED those people are. In the past 24 hours, I've had visitors from every continent on the earth (sans Antarctica), including the US, Cananda, Great Britain, Malaysia, Singapore, Brazil, South Africa, Sweden, India, and Australia. I've had American visitors from 38 states, and Canadian visitors from 5 provinces. Amazing! The LoA is truly a universal law.

Second, while the number of people isn't the thing I notice most, this site did get its most visitors ever last Friday, with 262 unique people. Most of that is attributed to my posting the Abraham-Hicks audio from Oprah's XM show... but that's perfectly okay. In that vein, I'd like to thank KeepingTheSecret's Scott for the support and links, and MindHacks for a semi-link.

Also, I've noticed that someone named Carrie is posting a lot of links to the Abraham audio all around. Much of the new traffic has come from either those links, or links on a few great Yahoo groups. So, whoever you are, a HUGE thank you to Carrie!

Third, I noticed quite a few people coming from Time.com yesterday. I thought, "Wow, I've got something linked on Time?!?!?" Sure enough, if you scroll down to bottom of the Happiness article and click on "Sphere Related Blogs and Articles", my post yesterday is the first listed under the "Related Blog Posts" heading. Cool!

Finally, yesterday was my biggest money-making day with the ads on the site. $10 from Google!!! And $.42 from a couple of referrals to ClixSense!!! Mind you, at this point in my blogging life, I'm really just looking to cover costs... and since I use a combination of GoDaddy and Blogger, my costs aren't that extreme. But I'll just leave it with what Harv Eker taught us: "I'm a Money Magnet! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!"

For any new readers, stay tuned, because there are MANY more tips, tricks, and hacks to help with the LoA... and more FREE audio and video. And make sure to check out the "Science of Getting Rich" audiobook podcast that I'm running. And thanks again to everyone for reading and commenting!

Gotta Get Goals

Edward Mills of Evolving Times posted about new-ish meme called Gotta Get Goals (from Alex Shalman). The first "rule" is:

In a new blog post, list and write about the top 5 to 10 goals that you gotta’ get so that you can truly say you have achieved your wildest dreams in life. These have to be your best, most exclusive, and over-the-top goals that you can pick off your goals list.
One of the things I've learned from the Law of Attraction is not to parse things in such a way as "I want..." or "I desire...", since that focuses on the fact that you don't already have them. Instead, these are the things that I'm attracting and manifesting as we speak:
  1. Blogging is my full-time job! I share useful tips and advice about attracting all the things people choose to have, and get paid for it!

  2. I live in a beautiful house in the hills of Austin, Texas.

  3. I travel across the world and experience the wonderful sights, sounds, and cultures that are on the earth

Interesting new movie - Pass It On.



I stumbled across this movie after an acquaintance of mine emailed to let me know that HE was in it (Brad Hager of CyberWize). As you'll see, it's more than a little bit influenced by The Secret, but in my eyes, that's perfectly alright. The Secret was, and is, great... and I believe there's room for many more movies that explore the mind and its manifestation powers. Hopefully, there may be some experimentation with other kind of movies, outside of the green-screened interview documentary types. The possibilities are virtually endless.

As for Pass it On, I've only seen the various trailers they have posted on YouTube, but their interview list is pretty impressive. They've got Brian Tracy (whose Science of Self-Confidence is in my car), The Secret alumnus John Assaraf, Conservative radio host Dennis Prager (?!?!), former CEO of Southwest Airlines Howard Putnam, fitness guru John Abdo, What the Bleep? actress Elaine Hendrix, and many, many more. After I see the whole movie, I'll make sure to post a full review, but for now, here's the most recently posted trailer:


One more thing, I know a lot of people are into the whole affiliate thing, and the Pass It On people have set up an Affiliates program with a 3-tier system - check it out and get $4 for each pre-sold DVD through your affiliate link.

8 Blogs I Read: Attraction-themed

One my favorite things about reading other blogs, is finding new blogs that those bloggers blog about (could I use the word 'blog' a few more times?). Most of the time it's just links to stories, and then I explore the whole site after reading the story. But occasionally, they'll just do a list of links, which is nice since they're all in one location. Keeping with that idea, below is a list of blogs/websites I check out regularly (in no particular order) - specifically about the Law of Attraction, or at least having a similar theme. Over the next few weeks, I'll post up other blogs I read with other themes.


  • MindHacks.org - a recent addition, found through the Keeping the Secret blog. I'm somewhat partial to sites with 'hack' in their name.

  • Cyres Matters - the Cyres Cafe sounds interesting, and it looks like they're opening one in Dallas.

  • Cultivate GREATNESS - some great self-help stuff, and articles from many, varied sources.

  • Joe Vitale: Beyond Marketing - from the movie The Secret. He updates frequently and shares personal stories.

  • Drew Rozell - one of the first LoA blogs I found. Some excellent audio and video posts.

  • Evolving Times - another one of the first LoA blogs I found, he's also recently started a live LoA internet radio show.

  • Keeping the Secret - a recent addition to my blog reader. The design of this site is one of favorite ever - very clean and easy to navigate.

  • Steve Pavlina - more of a general Personal Development blog, but he posts occasionally about the LoA.

I'm quite sure that these aren't the only Law of Attraction-themed blogs in the world... and I'm always happy to find new and interesting sites... so if you know of something not included in the list, please leave a comment with the website's address.

Modern-language summary of The Science of Getting Rich


I noticed a few people coming to Attraction Hacker were coming from KeepingTheSecret.com, who linked to my audio of Esther Hicks on Oprah XM. Then I noticed a post linking to the site MindHacks.org... specifially, an excellent summary of The Science of Getting Rich from February.

It constantly amazes me how the universe works. Now I've got two more great blogs added to Google Reader, and some great resources for future posts.
