Absorbed in work...one of my "network" stumbled on this:
http://www.quantumjumping.com/
It's New Agey Prosperity "Religion/Spirituality" thing that has the "Students" learning to hop from one alternate reality to another to pick up skills, wealth, and avoid problems.
Check out the prices for the materials on his Products Page.
Sheesh...if he was actually bopping around between world lines you'd think he would bring back an useful invention not found here and make a bazzilion dollars, insteaded of pedalling modal-snake oil.
I'd be very CURIOUS if the term "Fate-Mire" shows up in any of the stuff, but not curious enough to fork out $197!

Gosh, this science fiction writing is a mug's game. Gulling the gullible is muy profitable. Maybe I should invent something called Fateology? But then--someone would pronounce it FAT-ee-ology...

Your response came in on my work email address, I must have been jumping back and forth between my virtual office and the house that night.
So tracked "That Guy" down on YouTube actually...and the Quantum Jumpers scam is just one in a long line of Self Hypnosis/Hypnosis Empowerment Success for Suckers routine.
What little bits I found on YouTube just had a small peppering of Multiverse-Jargon thru it, and all sweetness and light possibilities, nothing really about seeing life as a Multiple Choice Game where you could potentially play all the choices.
Mostly just "Positive Thinking" and "Self Hypnosis" Tricks.
Feh...I could whip up something with more meat along those lines using a SubGenius Mystical Scam Generator.
I wonder what his sales are like...but in these trying times stuff like this sells better than street drugs.

Only if he CHOOSES to succeed, of course...
