Enjoying my vortex vacation

I start work on Monday. That means this week was truly a vacation. While I didn't have a job, and had that hanging over my head I was not truly on vacation even if I didn't have to go to work every day. While I was not depressed as many are when they are unemployed for long stretches of time, every day wasn't just an easy walk in the park (although I did occasionally go for a walk to the beach). And if you've read any of my recent posts you know that the last few months I approached negative emotions that were more typical of a person who had been out of work for a long period of time. Today was nice. I woke at 10 to 5 AM, and rode down to Sunset Cove. I meditated in my car and before the sun was up entered the water. I surfed with 4 of my friends. We had a blast. We each caught a bunch of waves. Congratulated each other, enjoyed the sun coming up, and the camaraderie. After coming home I went to the Santa Monica farmers , something I won't be able to do once I start work. Picked up the photos I've sold from the framing shop, which was very satisfying. Went for a nice mid day bike ride, another luxury I will not be able to do once I start work. And then a nice meditation with my girlfriend whose client had canceled. Topped off the day with a meeting of my local Abraham-Hicks discussin group. All in all a very satisfying Staycation day. Wonder what tomorrow will bring.

My LOA journey to a job

From Aug 2009 to January 2010 I worked as a web consultant on contract. I got paid the highest rate I'd ever been paid and did the least amount of work to earn that money I ever had. I left having about 4 months money in the bank. iwas renting a car as I had cracked mine up and hadn't figured out what to buy yet. Somebody I was working for lined me up more work, but I told them I wanted to take a few months off to surf. A month in a half I bought a new car which cost me more down then I planned and ate into my few months of money. I realized I needed to find work sooner, but when I went back to the gig I had lined up at end of last contract, they told me they had no work for me. I knew I had to stay in the vortex, to get what I want so I didn't try very hard to find a job, and spent my days doing my best to get in the vortex. After another month the money ran out. I spoke to my parents who had retired well off due to pensions and some inheritance that coincided with the end of their careers. They had bought into the bad economy and were happy to help since they had it. That was Aril 2010. Its been over a year now. While my parents said they wouldn't pull the plug the messages to get a job , any job were increasing. But I ignored them to most extents sticking to my belief that the vortex would work everything out. In May I met Jen, my now girlfriend (she is finishing up her move into my place this weekend ). I wrote out that whole vortex manifested Journey in a thread entitled "Love at First Email". The vortex brought me the girl certainly it could bring me more money and or a job. On June 29th I awoke with my girlfriend at 5 Am. I get up frequently at this time to surf, but its rare she is up this early, but she had a very early appointment. She allowed waking early to be her excuse for being out of the vortex. At some point I told her that the guys I had done some freelance for had just thrown me a few more hours. More effortless $$, not a lot but I didn't have to do much to find it, or to earn it. She in a not so great tone, with some attitude, said find more stuff like that and you won't ever have to look for a job. I allowed that to be my excuse to be out of the vortex, as we had had some discussions where she made it clear that the version of Law of Attraction she believed in had a lot more up front (what I'd call uninspired ) action involved. She had been judging my lack of effort towards finding a job, and my insistence that I hang, relax, and find the vortex, and the vortex would lead me to a job even though I told her thats how I manifested drawing her in. I was getting less good at allowing her not allowing of me, as we spent more time together. SO after she left I went on Craigslist to see if I could easily find freelance work. But what I saw I allowed to get me even further from the vortex. The pay rates for any work I'd be good at and enjoy doing were far below my normal hourly rate. Now in a worse mood, I met a friend to surf. He is a doctor and fully employed. He had learned to meditate 6 months after I did and was slowly getting into the Abe stuff. However despite getting more into Abe recently. He added to the messages that maybe I was copping out by how little effort I put in, and using getting in the vortex as an excuse to not try harder. By now I was ready to blow. But instead of calming down, and finding my way back to the vortex I started a 2 month long action journey to get off my ass and get a job. I spent the rest of the day and long into the night applying to anything remotely in my skill set, close to my pay range, and even extended my commute zone. And the next day I got calls for multiple interviews. I told myself that maybe it took the contrast of the day before to bump up my desire and by getting in alignment with getting a job through the contrast I was headed in the right direction. The first company I got into the full interview process for was in Hollywood. A 45 minute to hour commute through what we call in LA surface streets (traffic lights, stop signs, no freeway/highway driving at all). Once I interviewed I also found out they dressed business casual (On the much nicer side for software/web developers) , were in the office from 8 AM, to 9 or 10PM daily and worked weekends, no health care, they wanted to pay towards the lower end of my pay scale, and they wanted to formally test my programming skills. Instead of seeing this as non match contrast that was showing me what I didn't want, I let it get me out of the vortex, while still trying to jump through all their hoops to get the job. The formal testing was the worst, for two days before I tried to study, 2 different computer languages and a host of software engineering topics to prepare for the interview, and then when I went in for the technical interview I panicked drenched in sweat as someone sat next to me while I programmed judging and commenting on what I did. Instead of being relieved when I didn't get the job, I beat myself up that I didn't do a good job jumping through their hoops, or passing their programming test. I had set a deadline of finding a job at the end of the month. This pattern repeated itself multiple times a week through the rest of July and all of August, doing well in phone screens, and first interviews, then trying to study for a test, and panicking and bombing the tech test interview. There was only one interview process that went well during July, the tech test was just problem solving, not programming details, and I liked all the people. I was on their shortlist. However I didn't get this gig either, I was told they loved me, thought I could do the job in my sleep, but opted for a recent graduate with a Masters Degree who was a lot cheaper then me. Otherwise July and August were filled with interview processes that died with the tech test. Finally after feeling not so great about an interview with a job opportunity that SEEMED right up my alley, I had a breakdown. I beat up on myself, I cried, I was angry. I had been miserable for 2 months, and I was done. I told Jen, this isn't working, what brought you to me was just relaxing, getting in the vortex, surfing everyday. I said I'm going to reduce my job search to scanning the job alert emails I get from Dice.com and Monster (job boards) , and if I have an interview I'm certainly not studying anymore. I trust if I get back in the vortex I'll be inspired to email my resume to the right job, and a tech test will just test me on stuff I am already good at. That was 2 and a half weeks ago. I stopped making finding a job my priority and started making relaxing and getting in the vortex my priority. When the job search came up I went general (I keep getting interviews, I've always found work in the past, The vortex always brings me what I want, I do well in the initial stages of these interviews which means people like me, not all companies tested me in uncomfortable ways ,etc...) . When someone asked I just told them I was still interviewing and changed the subject. I enjoyed surfing not just for relief. I went on long bike rides. But even more so I stopped the work of trying to find a job. I stopped searching the net for job postings. I stopped preparing for interviews with studying and tons of research into the company. The first thing that happened is I got two orders for canvas prints of one of my best photos ever, a photo of the Ram Joolah footbridge I took in Rishikesh India in 2007. The next thing that happened was I got 4 seperate new clients for my Law of Attraction life coaching business. And then I got the interview for the job I have now been offered. Not only was the technology, stuff I had a lot of experience, but the subject matter of the company is health and fitness. They were very interested in my experience as a programmer and as a leader and were excited I was a surfer and bicyclist, who had lost a lot of weight and transformed my body over the last few years (their audience/clientele). I didn't study at all for the interview and the tech test was very easy for me. The position was in my salary range, the commute isn't bad, they don't have to be in to work until 10, and are done by 7, they don't work weekends, they dress very casually, they are a MAC shop (no PCs), I have free parking downtown in a complex that makes it convenient go out downtown outside of work hours and on weekends, and their is room for growth and advancement in the company. When things started happening (the photo sales, etc..) my girlfriend noticed. And when I got the job she really got it. All the effort was unaligned and amounted to nothing, but when I made my priority getting in the vortex stuff happened.

I got a job

I just received a formal letter of offer for a job. I am accepting. It is contingent upon a background check (which I will definitely pass.) I will wait to disclose more details about the job until all the "I"s are dotted and "T"s are crossed but I am having trouble keeping it a secret.

Labor Day surf

Went to a semi secret surf spot in Malibu. While the spot I normally would surf in big surf was quite crowded there were maybe 15 other surfers in the water and 5 of them were friends of mine who came to surf with me. I caught a few bug ones. Had 2 or 3 nice long rides. problem with a long ride is the paddle back. After surfing for almost 2 hours I was very tired. So of course who wants to hear from their friend who stayed in that the best waves came after you left. But thats what one of my friends said that after I left there were rideable 8-10 foot waves. The biggest I was on was probably 6 feet. Oh well next time. It was still a blast.

LOA in action

Everyone is human. What do I mean by that? We don't always all practice what we preach. Here I am a Law of Attraction coach, and I spent the months of July and August not practicing what I preach.After a 5 year journey to heal from my late wife's death, and transform my life into one based in consciousness, and equanimity I spent two months as the stressed out ADD person I had been in the past. After manifesting a wonderful new relationship, I decided it was time I did more about getting a new job. Instead of continuing to do what I believe and get in a good place, and follow inspiration when it directed me to meet someone, take a meeting or apply for a job letting the Universe direct me to my next job as it had always done before, I was going to make it happen. I stopped ignoring my parents messages about the economy, and how hard it would be, and their constant asking if I found a gig or had started on plan B, or plan C, and got stressed. I changed my resume to reflect more of an individual contributor rather then a manager and started applying to anything remotely within my sphere of skills. And because I had been in a relatively good place before this action journey to make a job happen started I got results. Since that day at the end of June I have been interviewing non stop. But each non match just made me beat up on myself more, stress more, ignore what I believe more, and try harder.
Basically in a lot of ways July and August sucked, because I spent most of the time beating up on myself that I didn't get a job yet. The interviews continued, one company even took me all the way through their process before showing they too were a non match, telling me they loved me and I could do the job in their sleep but they were going with a recent Masters degree grad who was younger and cheaper. Then about 2 weeks ago I had a break down, which led to a break through. I had abandoned my beliefs , I had abandoned who I was. Even in "real world" terms I couldn't set a deadline on when I'd geta job by since hiring me is not in my control.
I needed to chill out, relax, become the peaceful warrior. I needed to not apply to every job, just those that really spoke to me. I needed to not stress about interviews or try and over prepare knowing the right one would be a match in what they asked of me, and how they tested my skills. It took a few days to really relax, and let it all go.
Of course once I did that evidence started appearing that I was now back on track. The quality of the networking meetings I took increased. I have now been introduced to a new set of people in the LA high tech media world that are continuing to introduce me to new connections, some of which could potentially lead to employment. I sold two copies of a photographs on canvas I took in India in 2007. I have 4 new life coaching clients, 2 of which called me after finding my coaching website. This week I took two wonderful interviews in my chosen field. One I could receive an offer from as early as Tuesday, and the other decided I was a much better fit for a different opening they have, then the one I came in to interview for, but since the CTO decided this at 4:30 PM Friday as we met, most of those I need to meet with for the other position had already left for the holiday weekend so the rest of that will be scheduled Tuesday. Both of these positions are in the pay range I am looking, and have elements which make them very exciting to me.
And even if neither of these work out, I know I am back on track and that something will land in my lap shortly, and in the meantime I've sold art and gotten new coaching clients so all is well.

Search continues

Continue to get leads, but no offers yet. Spoke to a new recruiter today and had a phone screen with a major gaming company. Also a former employee connected me to a VC manager leaving his VC fund to become CEO of a startup he founded. We'll see what next week brings.

More interviewing

Had a half day interview at a wholly owned subsidiary of a major corporation. Its like a startup within the belly of an established company. Great life-work balance, stability, benefits, but a fully open source shop with an entrepreneurial spirit. I enjoyed the interview quite a bit. It would be an amazing learning environment for me to progress in some new technologies I have yet to work on professionally. It would also allow me to work on a very high trafficked site, something the many startups I worked for never survived long enough to achieve. I have another interview with another established company tomorrow. The search continues.

Somewhere in all this interviewing I will align and one of these will pop.

Yesterday's interview

{EAV_BLOG_VER:0c1b5c19e5539782}

Met with an academy award winning film producer. He has a movie site, a niche (specific genre) Netflix). But the guy and his CFO know nothing about technology. I had trouble entering their site and playing the free movies before my interview. We left things with me going home and exploring their site and sending the CEO (the Oscar winner) an email. In it I told him what was wrong with the site, and what the company needed to really succeed/compete.
We'll see what they are willing to invest in the company and in me.
It's so interesting, now two days in a row I have met with people who have a great business idea, but don't get the internet. They hire others to build them a site as cheap as they can so they can move this business idea from the market they know well online. They have no clue that once they do that they are a technology company, and if they don't invest properly and enough in their technology platform their great business idea will fail. They think they can just throw up a website and continue to pour money into the other areas that if it were a bricks and mortar business would help the company to succeed thinking they can save money on the website side. These aren't companies whose website is just a brochure for their bricks and mortar these are people with ecommerce platforms, and online business models. We'll see the response I get to the email I sent CEO at his request. He claimed he didn't get it, and he didn't know enough and needed someone like me. We'll see if he is smart enough to understand what I'm telling him and willing enough to put his money where his mouth is.

Interviews continue

Had a good meeting today but I don't think their timeline works for me, they are in no hurry.
Really enjoying playing the social stock market on empireavenue.com just as my father is pushing me to learn about real world investing. The social stock market value is a combo of play money, managing a portfolio and your social network activity. Its causing me to evaluate how I use Facebook and Twitter and encouraging me to post more. This has the side effect of raising my klout.com social relevancy score.
We'll see how tomorrows interview goes, and what a fun surf I'll have in the morning and how much fun I can have on empireavenue.com.

Is the economy going to effect my search?

Only time will really tell. And I don't believe it will. I believe whether I get a job now is about me not the economy. This time off since my last full time gig has been a time of huge personal growth for me, besides that I am in the best shape of my life. I'm ready I want to work, more then I ever have in my life. And its not just for a paycheck. There are experiences and interactions I am craving at the moment that go far beyond bringing home a paycheck a few times a month. Not that the increase in cash flow won't be a really nice addition to my life. But the daily structure, the mental engagement, and the social interaction with a particular set of shared interest peers is what I am really after at the moment. Analysts say this isn't another tech bubble, that investment has been in line with real innovation and real value, and that unless there is a sustained hit to the tech stock market lasting months the present tech boom should continue for some time. I have 2 interviews today, one tomorrow, and one Thursday. I think I'll be going to work everyday in an office in September, but we'll see won't we.

The Job Search continues

I feel good. I continue to interview. I have not aligned with the right job yet as I am not posting about receiving and taking an offer, but I still feel good about it because I continue to interview. I have 4 interviews this week so far and 2 of them seem at least on paper to be more in line with what I'd really like to do. Last week I had a final interview with one company, but they told me they would be taking 10-15 days to make a decision. Plenty of time to keep looking and find some thing even better or a competitive offer.
Despite what's going on in Washington and the greater US economy the tech sector is booming. While unemployment is at 9+% nationwide this sector is at 3%. I am poised to take advantage of that. Besides beinga senior LAMP developer and a great hands on manager/early stage executive I have been teaching myself Ruby on Rails, and playing with node.js to get my cops really current. With all of these interviews its just a matter of any day of aligning with the right opportunity.

In the meantime I'm playing with some social status sites http://www.klout.com, http://photorank.me, and now http://www.empireavenue.com/. I'm also playing with Google+. This is of course when I'm inside and not outside riding my bicycle or surfing. Staying in shape and enjoying the wonderful summer weather is a priority not just while I am looking for work, but will continue to be important to me once I am fully employed and going in to an office every day.

Sllicon Beach: My first post

In 1990 I moved from NYC to Sillicon Valley the Mecca at the time for software computer techies like me. I worked in Sillicon Valley until the fall of 1993 when I married the late Caryn Shalita and moved to LA. LA at the time was beginning its transition from being part of the Southern California military industrial technology world. The transformation is now complete. A recent article said there are almost as many startups in LA as in Silicon Valley and they are now calling this area Silicon Beach. My recent phone calls and interview schedule reflects this new tech boom where I live. I have at least one phone interview if not multiple, every single week day for the last few weeks, and I have had a growing number of in person interviews as well. I have yet to find the right fit, but there is so much going on I am far from discouraged. For the past year I have been involved with a yet unfunded startup and working projects for a media boutique but I am now looking actively for something more sustainable and expect to jump in full time to a well funded entity breaking new ground in web X.0 or mobile rather soon.
A lot of these entities are giving me tech interviews in the form of tests. Haven't taken this many tests since I graduated college over 20 years ago. Not loving the tests but certainly getting more comfortable with them, and its helping me to see who I'd like working with and for and who not.
A few of the jobs are telecommuting possibilities by design, so although I may start work any day now, I still may not be headed into an office anytime soon.

India April 2007

I am connecting with photographers from all around the world on the new Google+ so I wanted to share some of my best photos with them. Thought I'd share them with you too, and for those who were with me on that trip or who have seen them a reminder. One of these is on display in Greentree Meditation Center in Venice CA, and two are on display in the Double Bay Meditation Center in Double Bay, New South Wales in Australia. Enjoy.

KaleidArt at The Venice Art Crawl

Starting last October I began participating in the Venice Art Crawl. Its the third thursday of every month. Getting out and overcoming whats left of my shyness and acting like an extrovert artist to sell my art is definitely new to me. And has been a journey over the 10 of these I've now done. Tonight I gave out the most cards, heard the best response so far, got my picture taken for a future article on Art Crawl hot spots and sold 5 fridge magnets. I also sold a piece by accident. A fellow artist knocked over my easel during setup and agreed to pay me to replace the piece, which had its mounting crack. This at first got my vibration down, but I managed to raise it because the rest of the good things happened towards the end of the night. Things are looking up for me on all fronts. More on this tomorrow.

The post stepping down drama , but not my drama

Within a few hours of leaving the meetup drama ensued. Why am I posting this? its an easy blog entry and is related to yesterday's first post. This was not my drama and did not effect me, I was just a witness to it. The remaining members of the group began a succession drama. Who would take over? and what would the group become in my absence? This has nothing to do with me and is not about my vibration I'm leaving. But the change of me pulling the rug out from under the group was contrast. I think some of the expansion will help me as people will see they want my advice/guidance once they experience the new meetings, and come to me for one on one coaching. But a lot of it was about the group co creating a new meeting based on their preferences.

So within a few hours someone stepped up, based on seeing the announcement from meetup.com that the The Santa Monica/Venice Abraham Hicks Meetup Group was going to be deleted if an organizer didn't step up. This individual runs his own Law of Attraction meetup already and wanted to fold the meetup I just abandoned into his. His meetup is based on his own teachings influenced by Abraham as well as other metaphysical teachers, and his practice as a clinical psychologist. But the group title has Abraham Hicks in it and is under the meetup.com category Abraham Hicks. His own group is under the Law of Attraction category, a broader category that really allows for personal teaching, as well as other authors interpretations beyond the Hick's. This caused some serious upheaval. Oh yeah and he wanted to charge $10 a person for each meeting, which I think rattled more people then the shift in subject matter

This was the email drama I woke to today. Happily the emails directed to me were just appreciation for my years of facilitating the meeting and wishing me well in my new endeavors. But I was blind CC'd on some emails to this Dr. Ray guy. And saw his emails to the group at large doing his best to straighten things out which included one of the less flattering emails he got from a member of the group. In the end I was inspired to send him an email telling him that I was staying out of it and letting Law of Attraction handle it, but that I did have a preference I was not attached to that I would express to him and he could take it or leave it. His response to my email, that he was going to let those interested know about the group he already led, and then step down. Within minutes of his relinquishment of control a member of my original group stepped up. Her email to the group didn't emphasize that she was going to keep it purely Abraham-Hicks based but that it would continue to be FREE. This seem to support my thinking that his charging of $10 was a bigger issue then the new content, and it supported my leaving to pursue getting paid for my coaching. People have told me leading the free group could attract clients to my paid coaching but I was beginning to believe that the community coming to my free meetings was a little lack focused and wouldn't "pay for the cow if they could get the milk for free." I saw that I'd have to leave that environment so I could see past those particular lackful people and manifest paying clients as well, as to push those who really were coming for my wisdom to realize they needed to pay to get the best of me as a coach. Having one of those people as I saw as one of the lack oriented ones step up to lead the group just seem to support my decision

Since this morning I received two emails that really helped get me in a great mood and supported my decision to move beyond hosting the monthly free meeting and stepping up to be paid for my coaching. One was from a long standing member who became a co-organizer at one point telling me to ignore the drama, and that he and his partner really supported my decision, that I'd make a wonderful one on one coach, and that members of the group would be seeking my paid counsel soon after not being able to get it for free anymore. And the second was from writer who is an acquaintance and Facebook friend. She and I have yet to meet. We were introduced by a mutual real world friend, so that I could consult on a script she was writing for a screen play. The screenplay involved the Netscape IPO, deadheads and the death of Jerry Garcia, which happened the same week as the Netscape IPO. I am a former deadhead of sorts as well as a former employee of Netscape although I got there shortly after the IPO. I read her screenplay and gave her feedback she said was very helpful. The email she wrote to me today involved my life coaching was auspicious in its timing, it supported my decision and brought up a future project she would like to involve me in. All is well.

My Journey

Today after 5+ years of hosting the Santa Monica/Venice Abraham-Hicks Meetup, I stepped down. The main reason was to tell the Universe I'm done coaching for free, and want to be paid for my coaching.  This was the message I sent to the group

Hello,
After 5+ years as the organizer of the once a month Saturday Santa Monica/Venice Abraham Hicks Meetup I am no longer a vibrational match.
I have expanded beyond hosting this particular group in my home. I am not leaving the greater Los Angeles Abraham community, but I have expanded beyond hosting of this all levels, all welcome format.
It has been wonderful hosting. The community is flourishing, and I have met many wonderful people who have become my friends , my LOA, Abraham family.
There are many spin off groups not hosted on meetup, as well as a few Abraham meetups hosted in other parts of town so members will still get their Abraham fix here in LA even without this particular meetup being hosted by me.  The other possibility is that one of you can  become a organizer before the 15 days are up so when its time to renew the dues you could pay the dues, retain the membership list, and  find one or more new locations to host keeping this meetup intact.

On a perosnal note besides continuing to attend some of the other more private Abraham spinoff groups I will continue to attend as an equal member, I am going to be expanding my coaching and teaching. I have recently sent out a few emails to this group letting members know of my one on one Abraham/Law of Attraction based life coaching where I help guide you to your own guidance and help you release resistance getting out of your own way to manifest your dreams. In addition I will be creating via meetup a series of more in depth multi-week paid workshops to teach about LOA as I interpret it via the Abraham teachings, and to continue to help people release their resistance in a group setting.  If you are interested in my one on one coaching or my future workshops please contact me at ryaker@yaker.org.

Thank You so much for participating in these monthly meetings and my expansion.

It will be 6 years in November since my late wife Caryn Amy Shalita passed away due to complications from some unknown illness (they couldn't even determione it in her autopsy). A daily meditation practice and the Law of Attraction as taught by Jerry and Esther Hicks is what got me through that tragedy.  So two months later when an opportunity to step up and become the leader of a meetup group devoted to the Hicks' teachings appeared I took it. It soon became apparent I really got the teachings and even before her death I was told I was an old soul with wisdom, so coaching came naturally. At first charging for my advice wasn't even on my mind, but people started to tell me I was good at it and I should charge. I've helped  quite a few people since then but still the number of paying clients hasn't manifested the way my talent for coaching implies it should. SO as a step towards that I've given up my outlet for free coaching. Lets see how it goes.


That said on my site Http://www.practical-law-of-attraction-coach.com you can find my phone number if you are local to LA, and wish to setup a one on one appointment and a button for an online service with an 800 number to do remote phone coaching sessions if you don't live close enough to come sit on the opposite end of my coach from me.
