Have you heard of the movie The Secret? It is truly one of a kind. First off, it had a world premier on March 26, 2006 – not really something new BUT it was also heavily marketed as “a Worldwide Internet Event” because the movie was made available for online viewing. So what IS the movie The Secret all about? It’s about the Law of Attraction.

The Movie The Secret – Unlock the Potential of the Universal Law of Attraction
The movie The Secret is not really a ‘movie’ in the traditional sense of the word. It’s more like a documentary with people providing commentaries on how life success, relationship success, business success, and more can be yours if only you know how to leverage the law of attraction.

What is great about the film is that it is never boring. You sit there riveted as you absorb this particular success principle. Another great thing about the movie is that you sit there listening to so many successful people attesting to this success system that never fails, providing credence to what the film is trying to teach.

The Law of Attraction 101
Put simply, the premise of the Law of Attraction is that everything that is happening to you NOW is something that you attracted to yourself. As is constantly repeated in the movie The Secret – what you think about, you bring about. The Law of Attraction is not really something that is new. Even when we were young weren’t we always taught to ‘think positive thoughts’ to turn away any ‘negative vibes’?

So since we were children, we have been exposed to the success through a positive mental attitude mantra. This is partly why the film really reaches out to its viewers – it is touching a nerve that is not completely unknown. It is understandable and easy to grasp.

However, LIFE happens and our childlike definition of success gets muddled. The Secret shows us that we should go back to this state of success through a positive mental attitude and we WILL see results.

How to Practice the Law of Attraction
So how does one put the Law of Attraction into practice? The movie The Secret reveals three steps.

One: ASK.
Quantify what you really want in life. Don’t just say you want to be rich, be specific. However, having said that, don’t forget that success is a journey. Asking for a million dollars in the bank tomorrow is self-defeating (although… not impossible as any lottery winner will attest) because you are setting a goal that is almost impossible. The result? You are persuading yourself that this particular law of success is not working and you abandon it and perhaps go back to your negative way of thinking.

Two: BELIEVE.
Once you specify what you want in love, life, business or whatever aspect, BELIEVE that you will get it.

Many people put themselves down thinking they are not worthy of such high ambitions. Well you know what? You are! So start believing that you will achieve success and YOU WILL.

Three: RECEIVE.
The Law of Attraction is all about putting forth into the universe what you want… and receiving it. It can be tomorrow, next week or in a couple of years but you will receive it in due course.

How To Start Bringing Success In Your Life

The Attitude of Gratitude. Start putting out those positive vibes by starting each day with thoughts of what you are already thankful for in life. This will give your day a ‘happiness kick’ that no caffeine drink can produce! The positive energy that this exercise produces will carry out through your day and ATTRACT other positive outcomes.

Dress for Success. Put forth a successful aura and success will be attracted to you like a magnet! Our outer appearance is almost always a reflection of how we feel inside so if you dress sloppily, you are putting forth negative energy. However, no need to run to the mall to break the bank for clothes. How about just trying to smile more often? Smiling is one of the best (and cheapest!) ways to put forth positive energy.

If you have teeth problems preventing you from radiating a bright, cheery smile, FIX IT NOW. Visit your dentist or if it’s just dark-stained teeth, use an at-home teeth bleaching product. In short, don’t let anything get in the way of a great smile.

So what are YOU going to do now that you know about the Law of Attraction? Practice it. Remember, the universe does not like delay… so ACT.

premature ejaculation cure

There’s the chemistry between the two sexes. Women try to attract men and likewise men are also trying to attract the women when they meet. But the point is does the attraction stays with just one woman or man or is it with many? Then it is called flirting. But when it happens with any one woman or man then it is called love. So you have to decide whether you’re just flirting or would be happy to love just one man in your life. Whatever the decision you must first know the art of attraction towards the opposite sex.

Laws of attraction tell us that opposite poles attract. So it is a natural phenomenon that men and women attract one another. But when you want just one man to love you then you must definitely play fast to get the man attention and make him look your way.

How can this be done? Should you dance like a damsel to get the men to attract? Or maybe try to scream or howl to catch his immediate attention? Do you think anything foolish or otherwise will get his attention towards you. Suppose he starts to pay attention to you how do you sustain the attention and attract the man to further make him interested. All this might look complex and confusing. But it is a very interesting role play and with the right attitude you can make any kind of stubborn man to turn and look at you and get attracted.

Choose the Right Man

Choose the right man and make the right moves. You don’t want to attract your boss’s attention in an attempt to corner his personal assistant. So when you choose the man make some underground information checking and find out his likes and dislikes. If you know he likes blue color and loves the fragrance of roses go for a shopping spree and get the best blue apparels and perfumes and get started trying on a total makeover.

Dress Sensibly

In your enthusiasm to attract your man, don’t overdo things by over dressing or making too many efforts. Don’t even make an impression that you are all set to attract him. Play cool and chill out and never really think too much about the whole deal. Only be around and near him just to be noticed at first. When he sees you around several times he will start noticing you and get curious to know more about you. Once you create this curiosity then you have to really act cool and see to it that you are always busy.

Keep Him Waiting

Once a man is attracted to you make him think about you more and more and allow the man to come searching for you. Once you find a place in his mind then it is not too far to get to his heart. So only the initial steps are hard but when cupid strikes him hard the path becomes easy.

You should know which books to keep open in your life, and the ones to keep closed. Do you maintain a 24-hour open book of all your past mistakes? Do you refer to it often? Do you relive the pages over and over again? Is it uncomfortably comfortable? In the Law of Attraction, keeping an open book of the past can and usually will sure slow down your progress in attaining what you now desire in your life.

Let’s start closing the books that serve no purpose in our lives. Sure, we can learn from our past but reliving pages of regret or hurt will only bring you more hurtful regret. Learn from the pages and then shut the book, and when you do shut your book, see it closed with peace and calm. When you are tempted to refer to the book, close it and know that you no longer need it. If someone else brings up the pages of your past life, pay them no mind unless it is a positive remark that will move you forward. Staying in the pages of the past won’t move you forward; it will keep you where you currently are in life. Just move on from all the negative and hurtful parts of your life.

You have the ability to rise above it knowing that every day is a new day. Every day you can create a new world the way you want it to be, and closing the pages of hurt and learning from, then moving on from your mistakes will help you to move forward.

How about starting a whole new book with blank pages? Start changing your life through the Law of Attraction and refer to this new book of hope and happiness as often as you can. Don’t refer to your old, out of date book and wind up feeling less than secure. By understanding how to let go of the old book, of the old you, you’ll be able to move forward into the life that you want and deserve. You have the choice to do this; you and you alone. It’s not up to your family or friends. Remember, no matter who has been a part of your life, you are the only one responsible for creating your old and your new book. As always, it is all up to you in the Law of Attraction. So how’s your new book going to be?

What scared them about “The secret”?

For most people it is the realization of what they think of becomes reality. That what they think will attract to them what they are thinking about. As is said in “The Secret” the law of attraction isn’t biased, it simply provides what you think of. In my book “The first step: A peek at the real world”, I cover how you attract certain people around you. That is when you are miserable who are the people you talk to and what do you talk about? When you are happy what are the people you talk to and what do you talk about? Do you think it is a coincidence that it is consistently the same people you see and you talk about similar things? Could it be that the law of attraction is making sure that you are surrounding yourself with people that think and feel like you do, what happens if you stop complaining? What happens if you are genuinely happy and successful, do these same people stay around and have the same types of conversations with you? This is one of the examples that most people are familiar with. You may on the other hand not realize it till someone points it out to you and you really start reflecting on it.

Is the law of attraction something to be afraid of?

The answer to that is very simple, just because you just realized it is there, doesn’t mean that you have to fear it. After all did you fear other things that you didn’t know existed just because you didn’t know about them, even though they were affecting your every day life? The law of attraction has always been around, it has been working with you, it has been providing you with all the things you have been thinking about and it will continue to do so, doesn’t matter if you believe in it or not.

Can you choose not to believe?

You can choose to believe or not to believe, just because you saw “The Secret” doesn’t mean that you have to start believing in the law of attraction. Here is the thing about not believing, can you choose not to believe in gravity? Can you choose not to believe in the law of persuasion? Absolutely, the choice is yours, you can believe or you can not believe, but that still does not mean that it doesn’t exist or that it is working.

So does it really work?

I have been asked several times if the law of attraction works. Using NLP techniques I teach people how to create the future they want to be able to get it. Everything starts in the mind, if you never think of it, chances are that you will never do it because it is never an option to you. If the universe is constantly moving things into place, you better define exactly what it is that you want to receive. Sometimes the question isn’t even if it does work, sometimes the question you should be asking, is if it works do you want to take the chance that it doesn’t and not utilize it?

If I haven’t seen “The Secret” yet should I watch it?

Personally and professionally I would recommend it for people to watch. Knowledge is always power, and if you can utilize the information in “The Secret” to your benefit then you should absolutely take the time to watch it, just remember to keep an open mind. There are many different people that present in the movie and the information comes in various terms and examples, the message is a wonderful one and if nothing else, it should help you think in outcomes.

How do life coaches work with the law of attraction?

Life coaches really don’t work with the law of attraction directly, they work with you so that you can start utilizing things like the law of attraction. During the life coaching process we work with you in discovering the things you want, discovering how much the power of outcome based thinking does benefit you. There is an old saying, “you become what you consistently think about”, and that is where life coaching really works wonders. A life coach will work with you to and assist you in consistently focus on the things you want in life, to become exactly what you want to be. A life coach works like a “turbine” for most people. Many people start going through a self-help or personal development with what they have to work with at that time. A life coach has many ways to help you speed up the process and in many cases give you things that books and audio programs can not, and those are questions and answers that reflect your situation.

Can I attract wealth, health and happiness by using nothing more than the law of attraction?

Yes you can loose weight by using the law of attraction, you can get wealthy by using the law of attraction and you can find true happiness by using the law of attraction. NLP has utilized techniques that implement a new thought process not only in your conscious mind, but in your subconscious mind as well. Life coaches can help you take what you want and create new beliefs that will assist and support you, in the process of getting those things you have always wanted.

How do I go about finding a life coach that will assist me in getting all the things that I want?

On www.mindformula.com you can find additional articles about how to select the right life coach for you. A good start to any process is to do a little bit of work on your own. You can do this by purchasing a book or two and read them before talking to a life coach, make sure you choose a book that is easy to read and you will actually complete it. You can also seek out audio programs or articles that focus on this subject. If you are ready now to contact a life coach and start getting more of the things you want in life, then we recommend that you do so. Start using “The Secret” to your benefit, why wait another second to have all the things you want, come to you in abundance.

Beyond the Secret:

Spiritual Power & the Law of Attraction

By Dr. Lisa Love

(Book Excerpt, Copyright ã 2007, All Rights Reserved. Book Available NOW on Amazon.com)

Chapter One: Orient Towards Spirit

If there is one secret truly worth discovering, it is not the secret of the law of attraction. It is the secret of Spirit. True, the law of attraction can bring you whatever you want in life, but as I mentioned before, it won’t necessarily bring you what is good for you. Only Spirit understands what you really need and why you are here.

Seek to understand what Spirit wants for you in this life.

As you will discover the law of attraction can be used in healthy or unhealthy ways. A child can be attracted to a flame, but the best result is not to put her hand into the fire and get burned. Metaphorically, Spirit can be seen as a divine parent, seeking to guide you into greater wisdom and maturity. And what Spirit ultimately wants for you is simple—to be conscious of the universe.

Spirit also wants you to live an abundant life. But, let’s be clear on what spiritual abundance is and what it is not. An abundance of Spirit is an abundance of spiritual wisdom and insight. It includes an abundance of spiritual values like patience, love, compassion, maturity, respect, appreciation, intelligence, harmony, inner peace, joy, and a dedication to what is often called the good, the true, and the beautiful.

Spiritual Lessons Are Everywhere

Yes, your dharma, or spiritual purpose in life, may involve great monetary wealth. But, then again, it may not! While meditating on wealth and spirituality, I remember one particularly powerful experience. I was reflecting on the times when I had money and when I did not. At the time I was near the ocean. It had just rained, and slowly my attention was drawn to the vast expanse of water in front of me and then to a puddle by the side of the road.

Oceans and puddles. My attention went back and forth between the two. Should I damn the puddle for being so small? Wasn’t it serving a purpose? Wasn’t it helping to collect a pool of water until the sun could evaporate it? Didn’t I have multiple childhood memories of splashing about in puddles? Didn’t I remember the delight, the laughter, the squealing in joy at seeing water splash all around me as my boot stomped down into the water? Yes, puddles had brought a lot of joy into my life.

As for oceans, having grown up in the Midwest, I always found it a magical experience to head down to Florida to see the vast expanse of water before me: the waves rolling in and out, surfers riding the waves, sea creatures of all kind inhabiting a whole new universe below. Oceans were always mysterious and magical to me, not to mention healing and soothing, which was why I was standing in front of the ocean at that time.

Of course, lakes had always brought a lot of joy to me as well. There were lots of lakes in the Midwest. I loved the water. I liked both sailing and water-skiing, and swimming was always one of my favorite things. Picnics on the grass. Family outings. Those early teenage romantic rendezvous. Except for the jiggers, which could bite you, I never had a memory of a lake I didn’t thoroughly adore.

Even water in a glass has a purpose. I don’t know about you, but when I am thirsty, it is water in a glass and not water from a lake, ocean, or puddle I most want to drink. I realized that no matter what form or shape water tookit wasn’t how much water any person did or did not have. It was the function of the water and how well it was put to good use.

And, in that moment I realized that money and all of the “stuff” people acquired with it was exactly like water in this world. I came to understand that it wasn’t how much any person had or didn’t have that mattered. It was the spiritual lessons they were learning from what they possessed and how well they consciously, lovingly, and intelligently managed their possessions, and how capable they were of sticking to spiritual principles no matter how much wealth, or what kind of circumstances they faced in their lives. Perhaps this is why so many spiritual people go through both prosperous and adverse situations. Like the double dorje, they are learning to stand poised at the center of the circle, staying spiritually balanced no matter the outer circumstances of their world.

Spirit Overcomes Fear and Selfish Desire

As you’ve probably figured out by now, when I talk about using the law of attraction, I am not talking about getting a lot of stuff. Stuff may or may not make you happy, and I will go into that later in this book. It’s just that people acquire stuff as a way to avoid their ultimate fear—that stuff may really be all there is in this universe. Just like the stuff of our bodies, one day all other stuff will disappear. The only thing that will remain is Spirit, and even that is difficult for some stuff-driven people to accept and comprehend. Though I have personalized Spirit metaphorically as a divine parent, it really is the vast, all-encompassing force that pervades the universe. As my own mystical experiences have revealed to me, Spirit lives within everything. Nothing can escape it and everyone is “it” in a very fundamental way.

Understand that Spirit is infinite; forms are finite. Spirit is abundant; forms are not.

Thus, those who know Spirit intimately understand beyond a shadow of a doubt that nothing in this universe can be destroyed. Death is an illusion. Whenever anything appears to die, it simply changes shape and form. As Albert Einstein said, “Energy, cannot be created or destroyed. ” This realization radically shifts your experience of death and desire. Though The Secret also mentions this Einstein quote, the book fails to illuminate or appreciate how, when you remove the fear of death, you don’t desire things in quite the same way.

For starters, you no longer act as a human being who wants to consume everything in sight, leaving nothing of real value for your children and grandchildren in the future. You begin to understand that humans who are only focused on consumption are really like a cancer on this Earth. Just as cancer cells in your body could use the law of attraction to get what they want despite your ultimate demise; humans need to understand that if they are not careful they will use the law of attraction in a destructive manner reaping devastation on the larger world around.

Of course, even if the law of attraction is used in a selfish way, Spirit will ultimately turn it toward the good. But why make those mistakes? Why set yourself back and misuse the law of attraction instead of using it in a spiritual way?

The difficulty with the law of attraction is that it is entirely neutral. Just as The Secret shares, the law of attraction is like a genie in a bottle here to grant your every wish. Often, what you are wishing for is not what Spirit is wishing for you! Just as a child can wish to eat nothing but cookies all day long, what you wish for as an adult may or may not be good for you in the long run. And, since the law of attraction is neutral, it doesn’t care. It will give you want you want regardless.

Remember the law of attraction is neutral. Though you can use it to get whatever you wish for, it doesn’t always give you what Spirit wishes for you!

Spirit Reveals Your Ultimate Destiny

So, here’s the rub: The next time you are busy polishing that lamp so all of your wishes can come true, think twice about what you are doing because the most powerful use of the law of attraction is ultimately to attract to yourself a clear understanding of how to wish! And, one of the best wishes you can make is to gain insight into yourself and your spiritual purpose, mission, or ultimate destiny in this world.

Now, I cannot tell you what your ultimate destiny is. Though I can attempt to guide you, only Spirit knows what it is for certain. But, I believe Spirit has a fundamental purpose—to wake you up so you can realize that ultimately you are Spirit, and so is everything else around you. Call it enlightenment, self-realization, unity consciousness, oneness, or being filled with the Holy Spirit. It all leads to a quest where you understand that you are here not to consume but to contribute. You are not here simply to acquire but to give! All that you receive in life is ultimately a gift from Spirit that teaches you to be more loving and aware on this Earth. And, you might as well face it: No matter how much you use the law of attraction to wish it would not be true, your time on this Earth is finite! How you spend your time here is important. So, what on this Earth will you do?

Will you spend your time and energy only trying to obtain your material desires? Especially in the world today, it is possible to attract to yourself a lot of material goods! And, quite frankly, attracting stuff is easy. Just think of all the people you know who have knowingly or unknowingly used the law of attraction to get what they have wanted in life. They may have cars, money, a dream home, the best-looking partner or spouse, good health, and even well-dressed and educated children. On the exterior, their lives look like a dream. Yet, despite all of this, they may also remain lackluster and walk through life half-consciously. To cope, they often medicate themselves with alcohol, Prozac, illegal drugs, adrenaline-rush activities, sexual conquests, and much, much more. Sadly, despite all of their prosperity, too many people in our present society act like empty zombies. Maybe that is why our culture is so increasingly obsessed with horror movies. As a whole, we are trying to wake up to the horror of the empty lives too many people are currently living.

Attract More Spirit into Your Life

This is why it is so important to attract the things of Spirit no matter what the outer circumstances of your life. Then you will know that if you can stay connectioned with Spirit, grow in wisdom, and have a heart capable of love, you will remain in a very good mood, just like Job in the Bible who was stripped of everything and everyone he loved for a while; you will discover it ispossible to stay in touch with Spirit for better or worse, in sickness and health, till death do you part, no matter what.You will learn to remain in a state of inner joy and peace whether you take on the role of a Bill Gates or Mother Teresa. My research and life experiences have shown that me that people can accomplish this. But, I have worked hard and long to know the secret of Spirit in my life. I know this secret of Spirit really has the power to free you.

So, get busy trying to attract an understanding of the purpose Spirit has for you. But, remember that you cannot write that purpose yourself, especially if it is selfish in nature, without paying a price in the end. What does Spirit want most from you? To become conscious and to love. How do you love? By experiencing yourself as connected to everything around you, and as everything and everyone, to learn how to take better care of yourself. Despite the illusion that you are separate from other people, we are all interconnected. Similar to a hand, even though you may believe you are only a finger, you are part of a hand nevertheless. As you wake up to this fact, you realize how important it is to care about what happens to the people and the overall planet around you. This is not an easy task. To truly love, you have to understand what everything around you needs to grow and prosper. Try attracting that information to you!

Of course, learning to love everyone and everything around you may seem like an impossible task. That is why it is important to begin in small ways. If you can just learn to love and care for yourself, that alone is a huge accomplishment. If you can also learn to love, care for, and respect your family, neighbors, co-workers, and community—wow! What a wonderful world it would be if we could all do that!

So, why not begin right now to use the law of attraction to help you live a loving and spiritual life? And, don’t forget to attract to yourself an understanding of just how much you have to offer. That way you will seek to make your life more about contribution, instead of acquisition, as you live from day to day.

Therefore, use the law of attraction to benefit not only yourself, but everyone around you.

Orient toward Spirit—Key Insights

1. Seek to understand what Spirit wants for you in this life.

2. Understand that Spirit is infinite; forms are finite. Spirit is abundant; forms are not.

3. Remember the law of attraction is neutral. Though you can use it to get whatever you wish for, it doesn’t always give you what Spirit wishes for you!

4. Use the law of attraction to benefit not only yourself, but everyone around you.

how to get rid of spots

Law of Attraction Secret #1: The Law of Attraction is ‘hidden knowledge’ that only a select few understand and benefit from.

The truth: The principles behind the law of attraction have been around for a long, long, time. Far from being a secret, or being hidden, they have been written about and talked about for centuries.  The reality is that the majority of people don’t seek out the knowledge of how to improve themselves or to live a better life, and even fewer people will actually use that information if they seek it out.

If you want to make specific changes in your life the information on how to do so is out there for you to learn to be successful. But you have to go get it. You have to become a seeker.  Imagine you are sitting in your room wishing you could learn to become a piano player or a cabinet maker or a dancer.  Is the knowledge of how to become a piano player or a doctor in your closet? Can you run down to the corner store and pick some up some information on how to become an engineer? How about your family or friends?  Chances are, none of these options will serve you very well. You have to go out and find the information yourself. Is the knowledge hidden? No, it’s just not common knowledge.  The same is true of the law of attraction and of learning to improve your life. There is very little real hidden information in life, so decide what you need to learn and go learn it.

Law of Attraction Secret #2: You have to buy the newest book, or see the latest movie, or go to the hottest seminar in order to fully understand and learn how to use the law of attraction.

The truth: YOU are the teacher. This is probably the most important secret, and failing to understand this concept will guarantee you a life of struggle. Forget everything you’ve ever heard about learning from the best teachers and the best books. Teachers and books are a great resource, but will never make your life better. YOU make your life better by applying the concepts that you learn from teachers and books… by applying them EVERY day.

Too many people believe that just reading a book or seeing a movie will give them what they need to make changes in their life. When that doesn’t work they rush out and buy the next bestseller or latch onto the guru of the moment. The core principles behind the law of attraction, and in fact behind all success strategies, are simple. Book after book after book rehashes the same information and presents it in a slightly different manner, perhaps with a new twist. Instead of chasing after the latest fad you will get much better results if you commit yourself to one method and give it one hundred percent of your effort.

Law of Attraction Secret #3: You can learn to manifest by practicing until you get better.

The truth: There is no practice in life. There is no warm up. This is it. Everything you do, every thought you think, and every action you take has an effect upon your life. There really is no such thing as practice in life. In life, the curtain is always up, the audience is always there. Everything counts.

Eliminate the word practice from your vocabulary. You either do something or you don’t do it. If you do it, you do it with full focus and attention. That’s the only way to make changes in your life. The problem with trying to practice something as important as creating change, is that as long as you know it’s only practice you won’t be putting in the effort or energy required to make that change.

Practice implies something ‘unfinished’ or something less than serious. Is your life something less than serious?  No, your life is all you have, it’s the one and only game in town. You have to play it the best you can all the time if you want to enjoy the fruits of your labor. Forget practice and simply begin doing whatever it is that you want. That’s the only way you will see the results that you want.

Each of these so-called secrets can cause you pain and struggle on your path to success if you don’t understand them. The bottom line is that your success in life is dependant upon you seeking out the knowledge that you need, and then taking action on that knowledge each and every day.

============================================

Have you ever heard this conversation? Maybe you’ve had a
similar dialogue with someone-perhaps with yourself. Sometimes
the things that come into our lives seem the exact opposite of
what we want. We feel powerless, and all the talk that we can
create whatever we want sounds like rubbish. Is it?

It can be frustrating and painful to face a string of
disappointing life circumstances. When you intend to create a
certain life, it feels like failure when something else results.
It’s so much easier to blame someone or something else; then, at
least, you’re not a failure-a victim, but not a failure.

Let’s go back to basics. The Law of Attraction states that like
attracts like. There are many popular sayings reinforcing the
Law of Attraction: birds of a feather flock together, what goes
around comes around, do unto others as you would have them do
unto you, the world is a mirror, and many more.

The attracting force is energy. Positive, high frequency energy
attracts more of the same; likewise, negative, lower frequency
energy attracts more energy that is negative. Emotion adds
intensity to this energy; the stronger the emotion, the stronger
the attraction. If I feel down in the dumps, depressed and blue,
despite wishing to feel better, and thinking I’d like to feel
better, the energy I give off will continue to attract more of
the same-depressing, negative life results.

We’ve all seen the Law of Attraction in action; we know the
world works this way because we can often see the results—in
others. We cannot see it as easily for ourselves. A universal
law doesn’t just work some times; it works all the time. Gravity
always works. Water always converts from ice to liquid to steam
at appropriate temperatures. Energy can neither be created nor
destroyed, only altered in form-always.

Then why does it seem the Law of Attraction fails to work when
you want to create a certain result in life? That’s the question
that baffles and frustrates. But it’s the wrong question. If you
assume the universal law isn’t working for you, then it isn’t a
universal law. Instead, you should assume the opposite-the Law
of Attraction is working perfectly. When you accept that the
combination of your thoughts and beliefs, emotions and feelings,
and subconscious intentions and yearnings are generating your
life results, you gain the power and perspective to change.

Once you accept that your life is the result of your thoughts,
beliefs, emotions, and actions, you are ready to take the 8
steps necessary to attract the life you do desire.

1. The first question to ask is this: do I really want different
life results? Be sensitive to how you feel about the area of
life you believe you want to change. Are there mixed feelings
there? Do you wish for greater career success while
simultaneously feeling terrified of making the changes required
to attain it? Is career success even your desire? Or is it a
success prescribed by others? The energy projected by a
combination of conflicting thinking and feeling will continue to
attract more of what you’re now experiencing. Clearly confirming
the life change as your true desire allows you to move on to the
next seven important steps.

2. Clarify what you want. Visualize the thing you desire
and-this is important-feel the resulting emotion. Emotion-a
state of being-is what we really desire. The things we think we
want are only a means to an end-the end being an emotion. We
think we want money, but we really want the emotion of security,
abundance, or some other emotion/state of being which money will
bring. We think we want a life partner, but what we really want
is to love and be loved, to be intimately connected to another.

3. Identify any negative emotions associated with what you want.
We often fear some aspect of what we believe we desire. This
fear will diminish our powers of attraction, probably resulting
in more of what we now have. Pursue these negative emotions,
what do they convey, what are you avoiding?

Do you desire to write a book, but fear it, too? The energy
projected from your fear will offset the positive energy
projected from your desire to complete the book-you’ll continue
to attract the inability to complete the book.

4. Identify what you don’t want and why. Visualize what you
don’t want, and note associated emotions. List these emotions.
Next to each negative emotion, ask yourself what belief you
might hold, or what experiences you might have had that cause
that emotion. A negative emotion is always associated with a
fundamental belief, perhaps buried deep in the subconscious.

Taking the book example again, assume you realize what you don’t
want is to invest a huge amount of time and energy writing a
book which few people read-a waste of your effort. As you think
about this, you feel unimportant, insignificant, as if you’ve
nothing to contribute. Insignificance is what you really fear,
and this is what is preventing you from achieving the completed
book.

A belief you hold is sponsoring this fear of insignificance. In
plain, harsh words, you might believe the following: “I have
nothing of value to offer the world.” Perhaps you subconsciously
hold this belief because of harsh criticism from parents,
teachers, or employers. As long as you hold this belief, you
will continue to attract life experiences directly or indirectly
supporting the belief.

5. Carefully examine each belief you identified in step 4.
Accept that each belief has been true for you up until now, but
need not be true in your future. Decide to discard the belief,
realizing that broad generalizations are oversimplifications.
Look for exceptions to the belief. Look for examples in your
life disproving the belief. Perhaps you find you enjoy writing,
and others enjoy reading what you write; therefore, you do have
something of significance to offer.

6. Convert each belief to a form that will help you. Start by
writing each belief identified in step 4 on a new line. Now
revise the belief to form a positive affirmation supporting
forward movement. For example, assume you’ve identified the
following belief as a source of your fear associated with
writing a book: I am not a brilliant writer, so a book that I
write may be laughable to others. This belief, if sustained,
will continue to sabotage your authoring desire.

Make the following change to turn this into a belief that helps
you: The book I write will be the best book I can write at this
time, and my satisfaction and reward will come from doing my
very best, rather than from the opinions of other people.

7. Transfer your list of modified beliefs-these are now
positive, supportive affirmations-to a clean sheet of paper.
Read each affirmation slowly and carefully twice each day,
morning and evening. As you read each affirmation-each new
belief-feel the emotion associated with it. Live within the
reality of each affirmation, savoring your feelings and
emotions.

8. Reinforce a positive orientation by calling forth other
positive emotions each day. Make a habit of allowing only
positive thoughts. A good way to do this is to think of three
things you are grateful for having in your life. Hold each in
your mind and feel the emotion of it. Do this upon waking each
morning and before going to sleep each evening.

When something negative happens-as it will-look carefully for a
positive aspect to hold in your mind. A traffic jam on your way
home may slow you down, but also gives you an opportunity to
relax and think of pleasant evening activities. A harsh critique
of your book will sting, but may provide valuable information.

Will you always attract the life you desire by following these
steps? I wish the answer were a resounding yes. For those who
are life masters-or close to mastery-the answer is a consistent
yes. Masters consciously create exactly what they desire.
Unfortunately, most of us fall short of mastery, so the best we
can do is strive for our life’s desires using this process,
accepting that we may fall short at times. The important thing
is to continue to work through these eight steps, recognizing
that today you are creating tomorrow, whether knowingly or not.

Ever since the released of Rhonda Byrne’s “The Secret” DVD and book in 2006, The Law of Attraction (LOA), which is the main theme of her work swept the world by storm. If you are unfamiliar with the law of attraction, then the simplistic definition of the law of attraction is that you attract to you what are in your dominant thoughts and what you are focused on. In other words, thoughts become things. That means that you get what you think and focused on.

Of course there are more to it than just merely wishful thinking and if you want to know more, the internet is full of articles on the application of law of attraction.

Experts in the law of attraction such as Bob Proctor, John Assaraf, John Demartini and some others who appeared in “The Secret” explained that recent breakthroughs in neuroscience, quantum physics, metaphysics along with the understanding mental laws, reveal why the “law of attraction” and “positive thinking” work regardless of whether you look at the theory from a metaphysical or a scientific point of view in a Larry King show. Oprah Winfrey also explored this subject several times in her TV programs.

Scientists have long known that your subconscious mind is completely neutral and impartial and it will carry out any instructions the conscious mind give to it. In other words, you can use the law of attraction to attract love, to lose or gain weight, attract wealth, quit smoking or whatever you desire.

Unfortunately, most if not all of us are still running negative programs we picked up from others as children when our subconscious minds were very open, receptive and impressionable, or which we have developed over the years as a result of repetition of our own negative thinking and life experiences.

Yes, many of you may say to me now that you have been thinking of losing weight, but is still getting fatter and fatter. You see, when you are thinking of losing weight, you are using your conscious mind, but what is your subconscious mind thinking? Let me list a few examples :-

a) I am too fat, so I need to lose weight – This thinking cancels out each other. Yes, you want to lose weight, but you are also thinking about being fat. The law of attraction does not react to whether you want it or do not want it, it just delivers to you what you are thinking and focused on.

b) My family members are fat, so I am genetically programed to be fat – I don’t need to explain this further. This is a self limiting thought and guess what? If you think you are fat, then you are. Period.

c) I wish to be thin – Now merely wishing is not good enough, the law of attraction will just entertain your wish. You will always be wishing.

d) It is difficult to lose or gain weight – Then you will never lose or gain weight because it will always be difficult for you to lose weight.

So when you do not lose or gain weight even if you have always wanted to, it could be because of your self limiting subconscious thoughts. Some of these limiting thoughts are so embedded in your subconscious mind that you are not even aware that they are there.

Our own thoughts, when repeated often enough are programed into our subconscious mind and most of the time we do not even know that they are there sabotaging us. These thoughts then become our beliefs, habits and automatic behavior.

To change your results, you must overwrite the negative programming and instill new positive ones into your subconscious mind. If you are getting more of the same or negative results in your life such as not being able to attract more wealth, good health or the body shape that you desire, then you have probably been unconsciously running old negative programs and reinforcing them with daily negative thought patterns.

How do we get rid of limiting beliefs and negative thoughts then?

There are many techniques you can use to get rid of limiting believes and negative thoughts such as using goal setting, positive affirmations, meditations and creative visualizations. I will not describe in detail how these methods work here as many books and articles about them. However, from personal experiences, the best method is using self hypnosis.

What is self hypnosis? You see, instead of spending alot of money for a hypnosis therapist to help you find out your self limiting negative thoughts (there may be thousands of them) in your subconscious mind and re-program new positive thoughts into it, you can now do it yourself through self hypnosis sessions through CDs or MP3s. This will save you a lot of money and time.

So if you want to gain or lose weight to get the bodyshape you want, change your negative beliefs and insert positive ones and by the law of attraction, you will begin to attract events, people, books, food, circumstances etc to help you get the bodyshape that you want. Believe it and see the magic unfurl before you.

Law of Attraction Love

In using the law of attraction to attract love, you must have a clear vision of what you want in your ultimate relationship. We’re talking details here, not generalities. And if you don’t define exactly what you want, you may end up with a prince that turns into a toad or a witch disguised as a princess.

Attracting the Prince or Princess

The thing to realize about Law of Attraction Love is that you will be attracting to you exactly how you feel about yourself. How you feel about yourself, how much you love yourself-will be mirrored to you by the person you attract. So it is very important that you…

Love Yourself First

Every relationship we have, be they the ones from work, play, our communities or our private lives-all of these relationships reflect back to us the love we give ourselves. They will tell you or not whether you love yourself first.

Loving Yourself Is Not Selfish-It’s Absolutely Necessary

While this may seem selfish, it is imperative if you are going to partner with someone else. If you don’t love yourself, how can you love another? If you don’t love yourself, how can they love you? When you are in a relationship, you will find that the way that person loves you is a direct reflection of how you feel about yourself.

It really is that simple. All relationships are mirrors of our own self-love.

So How Do We Attract Love First and Foremost? By Loving Ourselves First!

This can be an incredibly challenging endeavor for most people. They have no clue where to begin. And it is not an uncommon problem. I find it everywhere I go.

One of the biggest problems in the world today is a lack of self-love. Once you learn to love yourself, you have the ability to be compassionate and caring toward others. Until you love yourself, you don’t really have the capacity for compassion. If the lack of self-love is at the core of your life that will be reflected back to you in every one you meet and in every thing that you do.

I think that’s why people struggle for the best house, the best clothes, the best car, and the best body-because there’s something missing on the inside.

Material Goods Do Not Equal Self-Love

Having all these material things are great-but if you seek them to fill the hole inside, you’ll find that hole is really a black hole that continually consumes everything around you. It warps the energy field of everything in your life.

There’s only one thing that fills the black hole within and it is self-love. There’s no magic pill you can take that can fix it, but if you pay attention, apply your consciousness and start to love yourself first, watch out, because your life will change for the better.

You’ll experience a forward momentum and soon find yourself with your own law of attraction love match.

Perhaps you’ve heard of The Science of Getting Rich. The Science of Getting Rich is the classic book that Rhonda Byrne said helped inspire her to make her movie The Secret. This is a transformational book that you can download and use.

You should be excited about this because if you haven’t encountered the book before you are about to be transformed. And if you already know the book you’ll find an exciting audio version of it that you can listen to over and over and ramp up your understanding. You will pick up new insights each time you hear it.

Wallace Wattles was a peculiar little man who developed a mind set that allows attraction and creation of wealth. In his book he shares the formula. Wattles published The Science of Getting Rich in 1910 and that puts it in the public domain which means that you and I have free rights to use it.

Again it inspired The Secret. Rhonda Byrne was at a low point in her life when she was given a copy of the book. In it she learned the law of attraction and all the nueance involved in it’s use. She and her entire crew used the law while making the movie.

The Secret tells a lot about the Law of Attraction, but often the book has more detail than the movie and the same is true here. The Science of Getting Rich never uses the term: Law of Attraction, but it is one of the best textbooks on the subject available.

With the audio book you can listen over and over This will help you make the principals of the law of attraction a part of yourself. You will begin to act according to the principals — in a certain way. When you get to the site that hosts the ebook and audio of The Science of Getting Rich you will discover that it is a blog about the law of attraction. Be sure to check out all of the great content.

The Law of attraction and The Science of Getting Rich, you will never be the same after you encounter them.
