- ✅ #04: ☕ Over AM Coffee, say Terje’s Script! (*** NOTES ***) (9:39 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
Saturday became a day of trying to put some structure around the next stage of my Becoming. I wanted a clear plan for getting my weight back on track, making progress with my reading, and continuing to work through projects that have been hanging around for a while. The Universal Planner is supposed to bring those things together and help me see where my time is going. Today, however, getting the planner to behave became a project of its own.
One of the main things we worked on was setting up my 30 Day Reset. Looking back at my earlier diet spreadsheet reminded me that I had already found an approach that produced results. I also noticed something encouraging in that record: after the first 30 days, I began adding a new item each week and continued losing weight. That matters to me because I want to understand what worked and build on it. My own records give me something concrete to examine, rather than relying entirely on memory.
The reset spreadsheet lays out a progression. The first three days focus on regular potatoes and sweet potatoes, along with black coffee and water. Days four through seven introduce the foods from my v1.02 approach, including egg whites and non-starchy vegetables. Days eight through thirty move into the v1.04 version, which includes stevia, additional spices, fat-free sauces, and cooking spray. The transition afterward includes bringing in foods such as tofu, beans, flaxseed, and fruit. Having those stages written down gives the project a defined beginning and a direction beyond the initial month.
Alongside that, I wanted a second project for reading You Are the Happiness You Seek by Rupert Spira over 31 days. There is something fitting about having these two projects side by side. One concerns my daily habits and physical well-being; the other concerns how I experience my life from within. I want to make room for both. Breaking the reading into smaller daily portions should make it easier to stay with the book and give myself time to think about what I am reading.
I also wanted these projects to feel properly integrated into the Universal Planner. That meant more than adding two names to a list. Their tabs, headings, registry entries, task references, and dropdown choices needed to agree. We added a potato emoji to the 30 Day Reset and a book emoji to You Are the Happiness You Seek. Those are small details, but they make the projects easier to recognize when I am choosing what to work on.
Then came the timer trouble. Selecting Becoming Fit was supposed to produce a second dropdown where I could choose the Fitness Area for that session. Instead, the second dropdown was missing. We tried a repair, but starting another session brought the problem back. At the same time, the timer began producing lock timeout errors. I would choose Start New Session or Stop Session and then wait far longer than seemed reasonable for anything to happen.
I became thoroughly frustrated with it. Something intended to make my day easier was consuming my attention and patience. I wanted to record what I was doing and move on. Instead, I was sending screenshots, copying scripts, checking execution logs, and trying another revision. Eventually, I attached the entire script and asked ChatGPT to make the changes directly. By that point, I had had enough of trying to patch the thing a few lines at a time.
The investigation showed that too much work had been attached to ordinary actions. Editing an entry could trigger history updates and summary rebuilding while holding a lock that the timer also needed. Starting a session cleared the new row’s dropdowns and restored only the project dropdown, leaving the Fitness Area choices dependent on another process. These were the kinds of details that made a simple action turn into a long wait.
The revised script was intended to capture the start and stop times before doing the heavier spreadsheet work. History and summaries were moved into background processing, and new rows were given both dropdowns during preparation. There was also work to make an interrupted stop recoverable without adding extra elapsed time or duplicating the session. Those changes sounded more sensible, although seeing the real spreadsheet respond properly remained the practical test.
Even then, I noticed another delay: the “TIMER RUNNING” banner still took too long to appear. The code was preparing the row before updating the visible status. That led to another correction so the banner would be updated first. After that, I pointed out that the newly added rows were much too tall. The script had been setting them to 40 pixels, and I wanted a more compact appearance. The next version reduced them to 24 pixels and included a command to resize existing timer-created rows.
There was actual progress recorded among all this troubleshooting. I entered my weight at 357.4 pounds. I also logged a meditation that led into a nap, with a Goddard YouTube video noted alongside it. Those are the kinds of activities I want the planner to capture without a struggle: a place to record the practical things I do for my body and the quieter things I do for my inner life.
I continued reading CONTACT: Humanity’s Path to Remembrance as well. My latest planner entry showed that I had reached page 109. That book remains its own reading project, separate from the Rupert Spira book. It is satisfying to see a page number moving forward, especially on a day when so much attention was swallowed by technical problems. A little reading still counts as progress.
I also worked on my OneDrive Downloads project. The entry I recorded was an attempt to download the January, February, and March files from 2018. I want to be accurate about that wording. Attempting the download is what I recorded; it does not mean all those files were successfully downloaded and checked. There is still a difference between spending time on a task and finishing it, and I want the planner to help me see both clearly.
By the evening, the planner displayed 93 minutes toward Getting Fit and 13 minutes toward Other Projects. Those totals gave me a picture of the activities recorded there, even though the time spent wrestling with the planner made the day feel much more involved. The fitness target was showing as met, while the other-project target was still in progress.
This evening I purchased some Costco emergency supplies: bottled water, canned corn, chickpeas, tuna, and chicken noodle soup. That picture represents another practical project I have been working on. Having supplies set aside is something tangible I can do toward being better prepared. It belongs alongside the other parts of my life that I am trying to organize and look after.
Later in the evening, I stopped at 7-Eleven. It was dark outside, and the wet pavement reflected the light from the storefront. I took a photograph outside and another showing my purchase: cheesy jalapeño tortilla chips, a Crunch bar, and a KitKat Chunky (see photo to the right). After spending so much time looking at spreadsheet rows and script errors, those pictures provided a different record of the evening: an ordinary stop along the way.
Looking back, today contained more than the frustration that threatened to dominate it. I worked on defining a reset, established a reading plan, continued another book, recorded my weight and meditation, and made an attempt at the OneDrive downloads. I also kept pushing to get the planner into a form that would support those activities more smoothly.
What I want now is to spend more time living the projects and less time repairing the system that records them. The plans are there. The next step is to return to the daily actions they represent: preparing my food, opening a book, working through a download, taking care of myself, and recording enough to recognize the progress. Today required more patience than I expected, but there were still steps forward.
