It’s Friday, and today we’re exploring:
- The law of attraction
- What I’ve been reading and watching
- A hopeful quote to carry into the week
Sometimes I wonder if the Law of Attraction is just a pretty idea—or if there’s something stranger hiding underneath. The notion is that thoughts bend reality; that desire pulls the future toward us like iron filings to a magnet. Some call it magic.
That’s where retrocausality comes in. It’s the idea that the future can ripple backward and affect the past—that the choices we make in the present might somehow reach back and change what has already happened.
When I think about retrocausality, I can’t help but think of how it played out in my own life. In 2018, I had a strange hunch to subscribe to Backstage.com. No clear reason, no big plan—just a feeling. Fast-forward to 2020, and that little decision dropped a job offer for a local Austin TV station into my inbox. It was a job I would never have even considered if I hadn’t made that random choice two years earlier. It turned out to be one of the best experiences of my life, and some of the people I met then are still part of my circle now!
That’s the retrocausal twist: it feels like my 2020 self reached back in time and whispered to my 2018 self, “Hey, sign up—you’re going to need this.”
In other ways, retrocausality may already be working for you. If you’re a blogger, maybe you update a link, redesign your site, or shift your voice today—and suddenly an old entry feels like it was always meant to lead right here. Or maybe your mindset today changes how you remember what you wrote yesterday. The words haven’t changed, but the meaning has. That’s retrocausality in action—the present quietly reshaping the past.
So this week, I encourage you to follow your hunches. Make a vision board, jot down a wild idea, or act on that small spark of curiosity. Think of it as giving your future self a voice. You may be surprised by what it tells you to do—pulling you toward a life that’s already waiting for you.

This was an awesome job to have during COVID!
Can our future selves help our present selves out with hunches?
Retrocausality is the idea that events in the future can influence or cause events in the past.
Have you ever heard of this phrase?
