Ah, another work week is upon us! Coming your way to start this work week off, item #1 on my “ToDo List”: (You can use these symbols: ☐✅).
Remember, losing weight means:
- No more joint pain.
- Easier to get up/down stairs.
- New clothes.
- Socialize more.
- Travel more.
So, keep motivated! Here goes:
Morning
- ✅ #01: 📌 Work on Universal Planner! (Yep!)
- …
- ✅ #02: 😴 Record any Nighttime Whispers! (None!)
- …
- ✅ #03: 📈 Weigh yourself! (361.9 lbs. -317.2 lbs. = 44.7 lbs. total weight loss.)
- …
- ✅ #04: 📉 Record Weight Down in Title!
- …
- ☐✅ #05: 📕Read/Craft Ultimate Manifestation Letter: (4:03 pm,
- …
- ✅ #06: ☕ Over AM Coffee, say Terje’s Script! (*** NOTES ***) (3:09 pm!)
- #1) Hello – Begin by acknowledging them out loud. Simply say “Hello Universe” and open the conversation. The goal is not perfection or certainty, but connection. Say “THANK YOU” for everything and be SPECIFIC about manifestations!
- #2) Honesty – Speak truthfully about what you actually feel — fear, loneliness, frustration, gratitude, confusion, hope, excitement, doubt, or exhaustion. Don’t perform spirituality. Just be real.
- #3) Companionship – Treat them like companions walking beside you. Share little moments throughout the day: things you notice, appreciate, wonder about, or find beautiful or funny. Build relationship, not just requests.
- #4) Meetings – Take a few moments each day to talk through your life with them — what’s ahead today, what you’re worried about, what you want, where you feel stuck, and where you’d appreciate support or clarity.
- #5) Asking – Ask first for emotional relief and inner calm, then ask for solutions, guidance, pop-ins, signs, opportunities, ideas, or small favors. Ask openly without demanding exact outcomes or trying to control how the answer arrives.
- #6) Releasing – After asking, stop forcing. Go live your life. Walk, drive, work, brainstorm out loud, drink coffee, move through ordinary moments, and allow ideas or clarity to arise naturally instead of mentally gripping for answers.
- #7) Noticing – Pay attention to what returns — sudden ideas, emotional shifts, coincidences, synchronicities, timing, relief, unexpected opportunities, little “winks,” or moments that feel quietly meaningful. Then continue the conversation and relationship over time.

📋Additional Daily Notes
Today felt like one of those days when several different threads of my life somehow started weaving together. A lot of my thinking revolved around what I should actually be spending my time on. I have so many projects underway that the real challenge isn’t finding something interesting to do—it’s deciding which interesting things deserve my attention. I looked over my Already Becoming Command Center and realized just how much I’m juggling: my diet and weight-loss project, finishing and publishing the AI Diet book, reading, learning guitar and Sultans of Swing, watching Kung Fu, organizing years of OneDrive files, my Living in the End experiment, The Next Chapter, and figuring out what I want AlreadyBecoming to become.
YouTube was a big part of today’s thinking. I’ve been considering a video that begins with the sun rising over Goose Spit and then moves through little scenes of everyday life around the Comox Valley. We figured that getting there around 5:50 in the morning should give me the beginning of the light, and I could use a fade-in from black to make the opening even more dramatic. But that idea led into a much bigger question: is growing AlreadyBecoming—and perhaps trying an entirely new YouTube experiment—really worth the enormous amount of time it could consume?
One idea that really caught my imagination was a channel built around a simple experiment: can an ordinary 66-year-old guy start from zero and use AI to build a successful YouTube channel? One possible video would be, “I’m 66. I Let AI Control My Life for a Day.” Instead of knowing the day’s itinerary in advance, I’d ask AI to give me one assignment at a time and actually go out into the real world and do it. That could mean working on a project, going somewhere unexpected, talking to someone new, doing something kind for a stranger, or whatever else AI dreams up. There’s something appealing about that because it wouldn’t just be another person sitting in front of a computer explaining AI—it would be AI colliding with an actual human life.
Meanwhile, The Next Chapter experiment finally started producing some real numbers. My Facebook ad has now spent $7.29, generated 567 impressions, reached 534 people, and produced 30 landing-page visits at only 24 cents each. That’s actually encouraging on the advertising side: complete strangers are curious enough to click. Unfortunately, none of those 30 people signed up. Thirty visitors isn’t enough to declare the idea dead, though, so I’m going to let the experiment continue toward roughly 75–100 visitors before deciding what the results really mean. That’s the whole point of doing these little experiments instead of simply imagining whether an idea will work.
There were some lovely little real-world moments today too. Earlier, I’d brought Filipino “White Rabbit” candies (see photo to the left) to McDonald’s for Marvie, the manager, to share with the staff—a small thank-you because they’re always so friendly and brighten my visits. Tonight, Marvie unexpectedly returned the kindness by giving me three strawberry pies to take home to the kids. I loved that. A tiny gesture goes out into the world, and another one somehow finds its way back.
And when I got home, there were deer quietly wandering around the property beneath the trees. Another little reminder that while I’m thinking about algorithms, monetization, AI, projects, goals and what I’m supposed to do with the next chapter of my life, actual life keeps happening all around me.
Maybe that’s part of what I’m figuring out. I don’t necessarily need another giant project. I need to become better at recognizing which experiments are worth pursuing, which ones I can let go, and which ordinary moments deserve my attention.
Today had all three.
