The Law of AttractionNew Spin on an Ancient Universal Concept In recent years, The Law of Attraction has received a lot of attention. Many successful entrepreneurs acknowledge that they use it to their benefit.
The Little Movie with the Big, Big Secret
Not long ago, a little documentary movie made its way around the internet and beyond. The Secret* claims to have unearthed the hidden truth behind all of life. What is revealed is a universal law, said to be known and used by many of the great thinkers of their day. Yet it had remained shrouded in secrecy. What continually operates behind the scenes and determines our destiny?
Stated in more simple terms: Like attracts like. The Secret shows testimony from several well-known folks in the personal development field, as well as a variety of successful people, whose careers span a range of work:
The similarity between them all is that each has developed an understanding of The Law of Attraction and uses it in their own life. Powerful testimony for something so simple. Or is it? The Power of Thought
The very same year that The Secret was making its way around the globe, Hay House published a book by Esther and Jerry Hicks, motivational speakers and longtime proponents of attracting the life you want to live. The book was simply called: The Law of Attraction. The concept behind this Universal Law is that we create our lives with our thoughts. In other words: Whatever we think about is what we attract into our lives. The power of thought is well known. Many of the greatest thinkers of their day understood this concept. The subconscious mind directs our behavior.
What is more common, however, is a disconnect between the two. We may desire financial freedom, and “put our mind to it.” We aim in that direction, take appropriate action, think good thoughts. We may even put a vision board up on our wall, with images of everything we want to bring into our lives. And yet. . . if there is a subconscious sense of failure, some inner voice that just doesn’t believe all this success will happen, guess what? It doesn’t. So what is the key? Thought, Imagination, Emotion
Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life’s coming attractions.
Sometimes when working in a light trance state, someone feels as though nothing is happening. A way to move beyond this is to tap into your imagination. Simply make up a story. The imagination allows one to cross into the subconscious realm, wherein lie all those emotions, stored for a lifetime. By accessing your emotions, you can make real change in your life. It’s powerful stuff. So what does this have to do with thoughts?
An Exercise in FeelingTry this simple exercise. It's a blend of affirmations and self-hypnosis.
Now lets add some visualization, and a little rewording, to fully engage the emotions. Before beginning, I suggest you find somewhere comfortable to sit, where you can be undisturbed.
Repeat this exercise regularly. Notice that the more you practice, the easier it becomes to access your feelings. Adjust the wording to suit you. Write down your sentence and read it daily, always engaging your emotions as you do so. Approach it with a sense of play. The Law of Attraction Can Work for YouAs you work with The Law of Attraction, new people, information and opportunities may cross your path. You need a way to integrate these into your life. Here is my personal four step process for success, using all the power of The Law of Attraction:
It takes practice, patience, more practice. Play with it! Keep it light, keep it fun. You will get better at it, and it will become easier to say what you want, feel it, receive it. One more thing, that we all know and sometimes forget. Be grateful for the good things in your life that you now have. This information and these techniques have been of tremendous value in my life. May they also be helpful to you in some way. I wish you the very best success.
