Music streaming algorithms are a lot like reality and the Law of Attraction.
You direct your attention on something (a song, an artist, a genre) and the algorithm gives you more songs like the first one selected. If you don’t like something, the algorithm automatically skips that song and directs your attention to something more in line with your tastes.
This is exactly how life works. What you focus on expands.
Focus on What You Like
In life, we should focus upon the things that we like and use the things we don’t like as a way to better understand what we DO want.
Focusing on negative things in our lives feeds the reality algorithm with bad data and gives us more negative things. The more you focus your attention on anything, the more evidence of your focus will show up in your life.
By focusing on something, we line up quantum probabilities to choose from. The more we focus on the things that we want, the more quantum probabilities align for us to choose from.
The Trap of Resistance
Here’s where most people get stuck. They think fighting against what they don’t want is the same as moving toward what they do want. It’s not.
Every time you argue with reality, you’re training the algorithm to give you more things to argue with. Every time you complain about something, you’re selecting that frequency and asking for more of it.
The algorithm doesn’t understand negatives. It just reads your attention. “I don’t want to be broke” still focuses on broke. “I hate my job” still trains the algorithm on your job. The universe hears the subject, not the sentiment.
Skip What You Don’t Like
Giving thanks for what we have will always serve us better than beating the drum of the things that aren’t working well for us.
Listen to the songs you like and enjoy them intimately. Skip the songs that you don’t like, and use that contrast to better understand the type of music that’s pleasing to you.
The same goes for life. Experience what you enjoy. Skip past what you don’t. Use the contrast to clarify what you actually want.
Training Your Algorithm
Every thought is a data point. Every emotion is a signal. You’re constantly training your reality algorithm whether you realize it or not.
The question isn’t whether the algorithm is listening. It always is. The question is what you’re telling it.
What you focus on expands. Make sure you’re expanding something worth having more of.
