The Law of Attraction – What It Really Is and What It Is Not
It is somewhat amazing to see how much talk there is about the Law of Attraction and how few people
actually know about what it is. The Law
of Attraction is not a spell that you use and things begin happening that
way. It is not that you chant ‘like begets like’ a thousand times a day and see
things happening the way you want. If the Law
of Attraction were so simple, we would have already witnessed the world as
a much better place by now.
People explain the Law of
Attraction in various ways. The commonest definition you will find will be
something like this:-
“If you strongly
believe that something should happen, it will certainly happen.”
A sentence couldn’t be any simpler, but you will immediately realize
that this raises more questions than it answers. The question of desires is the
most important. Is it only what we desire and
think about strongly that will happen? Or will things that we don’t desire also
happen if we somehow think strongly about them? Then there is also the question
of internal conflict of thoughts. At times, there could be situations where we
think equally in both ways. For example, we may think that a job could be ours
or not. So how do we apply the Law of
Attraction in such a case? Or what do we do when we are thinking strongly
about something and someone else is thinking strongly about the exact opposite
thing? What will happen in that case?
In order to be able to reply all these questions, it is important to
first understand what the Law of
Attraction really says.
Notwithstanding the various ways in which the Law of Attraction has been defined, we can break things down in the
following four elements:-
®
We must know exactly what we want.
®
We must begin a thought process
for it, and begin vociferously asking the universe to make it happen.
®
We must then visualize a
situation wherein we already have what we are hankering for, and we must live
in that reality.
®
At the same time, we must not
attach ourselves to what might happen. We must only think about having it.
There is no room for apprehension.
In this eBook, we are going to expose various aspects of the Law of Attraction and see how we can
apply it in one of the most important areas of our lives – attracting money.
Can one really become rich by just thinking vividly about it? We need to
understand the law better and learn how to implement it in order to get these
answers.
Understanding The Secret
This is the
Secret: thoughts create things.
What things make up your life?
Are they things you love or things you’d rather change? Do you often feel that you’d be happy “if
only?” “If only” you had that job, “if
only” you had that amount of money, “if only” you had that perfect body. Or
perhaps “someday” wonderful things are coming your way, but they haven’t
happened yet.
Once you master the Secret you will never make the mistake of
feeling that way again.
That’s right! It’s a mistake!
Your thoughts have been creating the
life you’ve had so far. And thoughts can
be changed.
Thoughts of success, abundance, happiness, beauty, strength, and
health energize us. We begin to resonate with these things. We take positive,
fruitful action which feels effortless. We attract people who are
willing to open up doors, people who can teach us what we need to know, people
with the resources we need.
This is called The Law of Attraction. The Secret is nothing
less than the science of how thought interacts with quantum physics
to create our experiences. You don’t even have to understand it. You just have to do it.
Try it out today. Start small. Start
with something that you won’t talk yourself out of. Do you want a great
relationship with your boss? Sit down.
Picture what that looks like. Picture it in every intimate detail. What
does it feel like? Feel those feelings. Be thankful today that you have such a
great relationship with your boss.
Then claim it. Begin acting as a great relationship with your boss
is how it is, always has been, and always will be. Pretend if you have to.
Smile. Speak with the confidence someone with a great relationship with his
boss has.
Watch what happens. Then prepare to be excited.
Mindset and Management
Are you feeling overwhelmed?
Are you staring at a long list of tasks and new terminology, from SEO to
social bookmarking? Is some nagging
voice in the back of your head trying to tell you, as you stare at the world
wide web, that this is not your Grandfather’s way of making money, so how true
could it be?
Well, you’re right about part of it, this isn’t your Grandfather’s
way. This is your way, and it’s going to
be fantastic!
Every journey, it is said, begins at the first step. Your first step is to work on you. Before you buy hosting, before you load up
your web page, before you build your list, you have to know how to get your
head in the game and how to keep it there.
You’re taking a leap of faith into a vast, wild territory that changes
every single day. You’re one drop in a
shifting sea. In order to stand out, you
need confidence. You need personal
development.
You need to apply the Secret.
The Secret is just this:
everything begins with a thought.
Thoughts lead to actions, which leads to the results of those actions
made manifest in your life.
The Orville brothers had a thought about a flying machine. They took the action of sitting down to
design their machine and then going out to test it. They manifested the ability for you to go to
an airport and be anywhere in the whole world in a matter of hours.
And you thought you were sailing uncharted waters!
Thoughts like, “I can’t do this,” “this won’t work,” “well, I’ll
give it a shot, but if it doesn’t work out I guess I’ve got my day job to fall
back on,” lead only to two kinds of actions.
Inaction or inefficient action.
Either you talk yourself out of starting, or you spin your wheels
reading email after email and surfing website after website without ever really
getting your feet wet. As a result, your
life fails to manifest a working internet business that gives you the freedom
you really want.
Compare this to positive, super charged thoughts like: “Nothing’s going to stop me. I have every tool I need. Other people have done this and so can I. I’m totally committed. I won’t hold back. I’ve got a plan.”
Thoughts like this lead to you taking appropriate action. You create that product. You build that list. You stop fretting over the technicalities and
the “can’t do” and get creative about the “can do.” You start outsourcing anything you can’t deal
with on your own. You keep
learning. You polish up your management
skills and you keep your mind in the right place—and little by little, your
small efforts turn into something much bigger: the manifestation of a new life.
Pivoting Your Thought Process
In order to create the subjective thought process that the Law of Attraction demands of you, it is
very important that you create the right frame of reference. You have to be
like the person seeing everything in a dream. Your perceived reality is
actually the things that are happening in your frame of reference, which is
just another name for your consciousness. But, you need to put a finger on this
consciousness. You need to anchor it. This aspect – anchoring your conscious
mind – is known as pivoting your thought process.
When you begin pivoting your thought process, the primary
requirement is to have a fixed point from where you can begin. Usually, this
fixed point is your resolve, your intention, your motive, your purpose. For
example, if you really need to start a business, your resolution to do that is
your pivot. The stronger you resolve to achieve that, the more profound your
pivot will be. That is why people who have stronger resolutions are able to
achieve better things than people who don’t have a very strong mindset to
achieve something.
If you consider your desire as your pivot and see everything from
that perspective, everything begins falling into place. You feel as though
everything that’s happening is happening as a means of bringing you closer to
your desire. In the above instance, if your desire to start a business is your
pivot, then you feel as though everything happening in your life is taking you
one step closer toward realizing your dreams. This includes the positives as
well as negatives. If you suddenly meet someone, you feel that somehow that
will be connected with your new business, which isn’t yet started but you have
no apprehensions in your mind about it. You also feel that your getting fired
from your desk job was something that will take you closer to having your own
business.
People who believe in the Law
of Attraction staunchly build such pivots in their minds. Then on, their
entire life is focused on this pivot. This is what drives them and motivates
them into coming closer to their goals.
The Secret and Your Money
The Secret can bring you money, but it is not about
money. It is certainly not about empty,
proud, cold, wealth that stems out of the greed mindset. This is about fulfilling your purpose,
which is expressed in your deepest, most treasured dreams. The dream of your heart is your purpose on
earth.
Our society tends to make us jump right to careers when we hear
that, but it might not be a career at all.
Your passion may be to parent your child. Your passion may be to be the best friend you
can possibly be. Your passion may be to
give enough that 1,000 new wells get built in parts of the world that currently
have none.
None of these things can happen without money.
Money starts companies. Money
builds bridges and roads. Money brings
the security and freedom a parent needs to focus on parenting. Money brings the resources for philanthropy.
If you fall into the trap of believing that money is evil, then only
evil people will have money. Do we
really want our beliefs to ensure that only pimps, drug dealers, war mongers,
and cheats enjoy abundance while the good people of the world struggle? Of course not! That would be silly.
Yet if money is all that you focus on, money will always
elude you. For one thing, we tend to
store a lot of mental garbage when it comes to money. We tend to have a lot of fears about money. Fear is always counterproductive.
Bypass money entirely. It’s not important here. It’s necessary, but
it’s not all that important to you.
Joseph Campbell said, “If you follow your bliss, the money will
follow.” Get settled with the idea that
you need money to achieve your dreams and that there’s nothing wrong with
that. Then ignore it. Turn your attention to your bliss. That is where the Secret will begin to work
for you. That is where your emotions
will supercharge your thoughts into the change you need.
Wealth Manifestation through the Law of Attraction
Here are the five things you need to do in order to manifest the
wealth that you are expecting through the Law
of Attraction.
Believe
The first step is to ingrain the thought of wealth in your
subconscious. You have to think staunchly that you will be able to attain the
large amount of wealth that you are hoping for.
Visualize
It is very important to actually visualize the wealth. You have to
think that the wealth is already in your bank account and now what you will do
with it. Begin thinking as if you are planning what to do with the money. You
don’t have it already, but that’s not the point. The Law of Attraction tells that you have to be strong in your belief,
and visualization is the best way to do that.
Be Grateful
Taking your belief one step forward, you must actually start
thanking the universe for granting the wealth to you. Well, it has not already
granted you the wealth, but you have no aspersions at all about that happening.
You are darned sure that you will get the wealth and so being grateful is the
next logical thing.
Listen to Your Heart
Your heart will tell you a lot of things at this point. It will tell
you to do particular things. Do not stifle any of these “voices”. Listen to
them intently. Act upon them. You have to make sure that you listen to every
voice because any of them could be the one voice that opens the doors of
opportunity to you.
Continue Your Actions
Never give up, never relent. Remember that stopping is a sign of
weakness. You don’t want the universe to understand that your belief is
faltering. You want it to know that you will keep up no matter what. Sooner or
later, your supreme confidence is going to bring the wealth at your door.
Applications to Internet Marketing
When you set out to make money on the Internet, you are going to
play in a very equalized pool. Everybody
goes to the same internet. Everybody
gets the same Google, the same Facebook, the same Squidoo. Any two people can find the same forums and
the same article directories. At any
given time there are hundreds of thousands of people from all over the world that
can make you a success: potential customers, mentors, and business
partners. It is all there. You just
have to find it or use it correctly.
Yet 99% of all internet businesses fail. In spite of having little or no start up
costs, in spite of having little or no overhead, the businesses do not turn out
the sorts of results that people had hoped for, and so they give up. They go on to something else. They decide it doesn’t work. They go out skeptical and they leave certain:
certain that only scammers and the very lucky make money from home on the
internet.
Yet there are hundreds of thousands of people who are making money
on the internet, making good money. They
follow high ethical standards. They
provide real products of real value.
They live the kinds of lives they want to live.
This is why the Secret applies to internet marketing so
strongly. If you believe in yourself and
what you are doing, you won’t throw in the towel when traffic to your site
isn’t what you’d envisioned. You’ll
figure out how to make it better. You
won’t balk at the sudden writer’s block you get when trying to make a solid
forum post to help get your name out there—you’ll learn ways to beat the
block. You won’t make a slipshod effort
that looks slipshod and feels slipshod and produces few, if any, results. You’ll learn what works and you’ll apply what
works. You’ll do what you love and love
what you’re doing because that is what you set out to do, and through the
Secret you understand that every resource you need to make it happen is in the
Universe generally and there on the internet with you in particular. You’ll constantly be thinking hey, I’m as
capable as the next guy, if he could pick up the skills so can I. You’ll pick up the skills and you’ll keep
right on going.
There is a time delay between each component of the Secret: your
thoughts and decisions, then your actions, and then the results of your
actions. You might not wake up today
with thousands of site visitors. Your efforts today might not produce immediate
results. Quit training yourself to the immediate result. Acting like you
already have what you want gives you the strength and power you need to keep
taking the actions that will get you there. Acting like what you want is always
in the future will place your actions in a different place: in a place where
they are not getting done and you are reading worthless emails to distract
yourself instead.
The Secret and Your Health
If your body is raging in pain right now, it may be harder,
initially, for you to try to figure out how to apply the Secret to your own
Healing. Even committing it to prayer,
instead of visualization and mental exercises, might seem insurmountable. But do not fear. You will have success here too. Write it down. Know it for fact. Remember what you were like before your
health declined and fixate on it.
Sometimes, we have ill health because we believe we should. We’ve hit a certain age, and our parents
developed a health issue at that age, so we develop a health issue at that age.
Sometimes, we have ill health because we’ve been taking actions
which treat ourselves badly. Whether you
are conscious of it or not, eating an entire box of chocolates reflects some
sort of belief about yourself which manifests itself in your waistline and
messed up blood sugar. Jumping up on an
injured leg reveals some other belief about yourself.
Sometimes, we have ill health because there is some unacknowledged
anger, resentment, grief, or thought in our mind which we won’t let out any
other way.
It is time to let it all go.
Time to release it. Use the
Secret to make a declaration of independence from these issues today. Speak life over your body. Declare yourself healed.
Pay attention to your body when your body feels at its best. Pay attention to that which makes your body
feel good.
Focus on the actions that will help your body. With a new, renewed
focus, eat foods which energize you and nurture you. Love yourself enough to
focus on getting the rest your body needs to heal. Let go of the issues inside
of you which are expressing themselves as aches and pains. They do not have any
power over you anymore.
You have discovered the Secret, and you have a new and better
way. Take a deep breath and tell God,
tell the Universe, and tell your heart: you are healed!
Balancing the Inner Self and the Outer Self
One of the most significant applications of the Law of Attraction is to balance our inner and outer selves. Our
inner self is our consciousness. It is the way we think and behave. This is
where the Law of Attraction begins to
take effect. The Law of Attraction
starts manifesting itself when we think and that begins in our inner self. Our
outer self is characterized by our action. The way we act and implement our
thought processes is how our outer self functions.
If we have to make the best utilization of the Law of Attraction into our life, then it is essential that we learn
how to create the balance between our inner and outer selves. It is vital that
we put into action what we think. What begins as a thought manifestation must
get converted into action.
If you were to just think and sit about getting a new house, it
isn’t going to happen. Yes, if your thoughts are strong, if your belief is
strong, the universe will begin aligning itself toward making things happen.
But now, it is you who has to act. If you don’t even lift a finger things
aren’t going to happen. Now, you have to put your outer self into action. This
is when the positive energies that have been created start taking shape and
things begin happening.
The problem with most of us is that we use our inner self to think
and believe. We say so often that we want to do a particular thing but only a
few of us actually put our outer selves into action mode.
The Law of Attraction will
make things happen. But it will restrict itself to aligning things in a
particular way. The rest is your call. It will make you confident about doing
certain things, and that is what will influence the people around you and
things will happen positively for you, but the main thing for that to happen is
that you have to take the initiative and act.

Improving Your Future
Imagine a world where every person was using the Secret to follow
their bliss – a world where every person was fulfilling their purpose, reaching
out to help others, and allowing the will of God to flow through them to create
miracles.
Chances are it would look a lot like heaven. Every person safe. Every person holding everything they need.
You might want a huge house on the hill. Another person might feel abundant, at ease,
and happy with a small, quiet, rural cottage.
There is no need to fear competition, no need to imagine that you must
profit at anyone else’s expense. You
must attract the situations that will allow you to profit at everyone’s
benefit.
Does the world have to be a dark place, full of wars, full of abuse,
full of pain, full of madness? Are we
somehow special, just able to ignore our way into good things by focusing on
the positive?
No. Until others are ready to
move forward it is our responsibility to make our thoughts create positive
change. It is our responsibility to take
the actions and be receptive to the ideas that are going to make the whole of
the world grow.
Bless others! Show gratitude
for all of the ways the world has moved forward. Once people believed slavery was perfectly
normal. Now, even though there are
people who practice slavery illicitly, we all generally understand it is
wrong. Even those who engage in slavery
understand it to be wrong. That all
began with the thoughts of those who believed things should be better.
We all have the ability to move forward in this fashion. We cannot fear the way the world is
today. We cannot sit back and hope for
some bright future that never quite arrives.
We must work together to create heaven on earth now. We have all the tools we need.
Conclusion
These tools and devices
have it in them to improve your health and your wealth, making you a powerful
social magnet.
Unleash their potential on
your life.
All
the best to you!!!
