Although an
avid devote of the Law of Attraction for many years, I haven’t chosen to write
about it thus far. But as I keep proving
that it works over and over again for mef and because I still keep coming
across people who haven’t heard about it, I thought it was a topic that it
would be remise of me not to cover.
For most
people, the extent of their knowledge about the Law of Attraction is either
zero or what they’ve read in Rhonda Byrne’s fabulous books ‘The Secret’ and
‘The Power’ and the film ‘The Secret’.
If you haven’t read them, then they are probably the 2 books that I
recommend people begin with when they first start to explore ‘Attraction’ as a
concept and I’ve lost count of the number of these books I’ve bought for people
who I think they would benefit. However,
whilst these two books are really good, they really are only the tip of the
iceberg when it comes to studying the subject and boy have I studied it. I think it’s a shame that most people stop
their studying there and think these books are the ultimate when it comes to
the Law of Attraction because they’re missing so much good stuff.
I think must
have read the majority of books out
there on the subject right from the earliest New Thought Authors who began
writing about this back at the turn of the century, writers like ‘Wallace
Wattles’ (The Science of Getting Rich, the Science of Being Great and the
Science of Being Well) Napoleon Hill (Think and Grow Rich – you can get your
free copy of this classic by signing up to my newsletter – click here) though
to modern day experts like Eckhart Tolle, Joe Vitale, Tony Robins, Dr Wayne W
Dyer and Joseph Murphy, to name but a few.
So for the
uninitiated, what is the Law of Attraction?
The law of
attraction is a principle that I’ve mentioned many times but not actually
referred to as the ‘Law of Attraction’ and in very basic terms:
“We get what we think about/thoughts
become things”
The more
negative thoughts we have, the more negative thoughts come to us and the more
positive thoughts we have the more positive thoughts come and it doesn’t end
there (you’ve heard my say this a million times). According to the Law of Attraction, the more negative things we
think about, the more negative things (people, situations) we actually attract
into our lives, equally the more positive things we think about, the more
positive things we attract into our lives.
This can be
a bit hard to comprehend when you’re first starting to grips with this concept,
because in effect what it’s saying is that the life you have right now, both
the good and the bad bits, have been created by you through your thoughts and
emotions.
Now, if you
life is great when fabulous! However, if
your life is not so great it can be hard to hear that you’re responsible for
what you’ve got through your thoughts, emotions and actions. Now, what I’d like to add to this is
something that I found really important with Dr Wayne Dyer’s brilliant book ‘The
Power of Intent’ - you must not beat yourself up if you find your life
‘lacking’ in any way, because when you attracted that situation/person/problem
into your life, you weren’t aware of the law of attraction, so you didn’t know
that you’re thoughts and emotions where attracting negative situations to
appear in your life. However, you know
now and the sooner you can change your thoughts from negative to positive, the
quicker your life will change for the better.
This ‘law’ is
an accepted fact by Quantum Physicists, so don’t think I’ve gone completely mad!
So how does it work? Well, we are electrical beings, we are made
up of electricity. If you look at any
part of our internal or external body through a powerful microscope you’ll see
that we aren’t solid at all but a constant moving mass. Same goes for our thoughts – they are
electricity. When we have a thought, it
actually produces an electrical impulse in the brain (which is incredibly easy
to measure in a lab) and the interesting part is that negative and positive
thoughts have different wavelengths. When
we have a thought, positive or negative, it sends an electrical impulse out
from our bodies and attracts back other thoughts, situations people etc that
are on the same wavelength we are transmitting.
By the law
of attraction, what we put out, we must get back, without exception so put out
positive, get back positive and vice versa and it doesn’t stop at just
receiving back the same type of thoughts.
You can actually attract what you want into your life. I’ve got to be truthful, when I first read
this I did think it was a load of rubbish, however, the more I’ve studied it
over the years and practised it, the more I know that it’s true.
Exercise
Here’s a
little exercise (this works every time for me without exception and I use it
daily)
The next time you are going
somewhere and you think there may be an issue with parking, either before you
set out or as you get into the car, visualise a car parking space exactly where
you want one. Ask for it (you don’t have
to say anything out loud, you can ask for it silently) and remember to say
thank you – then let that thought go.
You’ll find that when you arrive at your destination either the space
you imagined will be waiting for you or will become available within a minute
or so.
I kid you
not. It’s uncanny. Give it a go, after all, when have you got to
lose?
There is so
much I could write about regarding the Law of Attraction, like I say, there are
so many books on it so it’s difficult to cover it all in one post, however, I
will discuss other aspects that I think may be of benefit in subsequent
posts. As always, please feel free to
comment below or mail me if you have a question or something that you require
help with. Until next time, have a
fabulous week.
