Who is Mike Dooley? 👨🦲
New York Times best selling author Mike Dooley is a metaphysical teacher and creator of the widely popular ‘Notes from the Universe’. His books have been published worldwide in 27 languages and include The Top Ten Things Dead People Want to Tell You, A Beginner’s Guide to the Universe, and Infinite Possibilities: The Art of Living Your Dreams.
He was one of the featured teachers in the international phenomenon ‘The Secret‘ and is the founder of TUT’s philosophical Adventurers Club that’s now home to over 1,200,000 online members. Mike lives what he teaches on manifesting change, inspiring audiences the world over, so far in 156 cities, 34 countries, on 6 continents.
He often talks about how he was at a real low point in life and felt everything was going against him. Also that this mindset was acting as self fulfilled prophecy making things worse. This is an example of how the law of attraction works both ways (i.e. if you think positively, more positivity will come, if you think negatively, more negativity will come). He jokes about this now and makes light of it, but advocates that if he was able to change his mindset, fortunes, achievements and whole life around, then anyone can. This gives his followers strong motivation and self belief to achieve the things that they want.
Mike Dooley created a ‘Matrix Chart’ as part of a central component of his program ‘Playing the Matrix’, designed to help individuals manifest their dreams and create fulfilling lives. This chart serves as a visual tool to guide users in focusing on desired end results without becoming overly attached to specific details or “cursed hows” (the limiting beliefs about how goals must be achieved). The Matrix Chart encourages clarity in purpose and desire, helping to avoid contradictions and self-sabotage. It emphasizes the importance of fuelling dreams with passion while maintaining flexibility regarding the paths to their realization. Here is Mike Dooley’s ‘Matrix Chart’:
By utilizing this chart, individuals can better understand the mechanics of manifestation, aligning their thoughts and actions to effectively create the life they envision. This approach has been shared in workshops worldwide and is detailed in Dooley’s book, ‘Playing the Matrix‘.
