Going Right Journal: Record What Is Working in Life

“What’s Going Right for Me?” is a Games exercise in Law of Attraction Toolbox for the days when one problem has started to feel like the whole story. You add short, factual observations about the parts of your life that are already working, and the app keeps them in a list you can re-read. It is a quiet, low-effort exercise inside this manifestation app.

What is this exercise for?

According to the app’s info screen, the exercise widens your perspective by recording factual evidence of the circumstances, relationships, systems, resources and areas of life that are already working, stable, supportive or improving. It is not a gratitude list and it is not a list of achievements. A real problem can still deserve your attention; the point is to keep it from erasing everything that is continuing to work.

What you can do with it

  • Add one observation at a time
  • See today’s entries first, followed by earlier ones
  • Open a combined list of everything you have recorded
  • Delete an entry you no longer want

How to add what is going right

Open the Games tab and tap the What’s Going Right for Me? tile. The screen is titled “What’s Going Right?” and asks “What is already going right in your life?”

  1. Look at the “Today” section. If it is empty, the app suggests you look beyond the problem taking most of your attention and identify one part of life that is already working as you want it to.
  2. Tap the field at the bottom of the screen, which shows “What is going right?”.
  3. Type one observation.
  4. Tap Add, or press return. Add stays unavailable while the field is empty.
  5. Repeat as often as you like. The keyboard stays ready so you can add the next one straight away.

Each entry shows a check mark and the time you added it. Entries from earlier days appear under “Earlier” with their date and time. Every observation is saved with its date and time.

See everything in one list

Tap the list icon in the top right toolbar to open “Everything Going Right”, one combined list of every observation you have recorded, grouped by date. Until you add something, it shows “No Entries Yet” and “Things you record as going right will appear here.”

Tips

  • Look for areas already functioning the way you want them to.
  • Notice stability, reliable support, improvements, and feared outcomes that did not happen.
  • Stick to factual statements and do not force gratitude.
  • Separate one difficult situation from the rest of your life.
  • Include things you already have that were once things you wanted.
  • When you feel stuck, scan home, relationships, health, money, work, transport, support and daily living.
  • Re-read your complete list whenever one problem starts to feel like the whole story of your life.

Where your entries go

Your observations are saved automatically when you tap Add. Find them any time under My Journey > Saved Entries > What’s Going Right for Me?, which opens the same “Everything Going Right” list. To remove one, press and hold an entry, either on the main screen or in the list, and choose Delete.

On iPhone and iPad

These steps are for the iPhone and iPad version of the app. This feature is not in the Android app yet. Using an Android phone or tablet? See the Android user guide.
