Five Practical Tips on Applying the Law of Attraction

Published by Other Authors under Law of Attraction

Recently eyes around the world have been opened to the Law of Attraction, commonly known as the Secret. The Law of Attraction states that anyone can have anything they desire by manifesting it through good emotions, thoughts, and feelings. Being able to have anything one desires is akin to like winning the proverbial jackpot, but when many attempt to apply the theories of the Law of Attraction, they tend to hit a wall. It sounds much easier than it actually is.

There are a myriad of methods currently being taught and it can become a bit overwhelming to say the least. Is there an easy way to attract what you desire? Certainly, and to get you started on your personal journey to the Law of Attraction, here are five practical tips to you can personally apply.

BE AWARE OF WHAT YOU ARE FEELING

The Universe doesn’t distinguish between right or wrong, or good or evil. The Universe starts moving toward bringing back to you what you outwardly vibrate. If you are feeling worry, the Universe will put more worry into motion, bringing you situations and people that resonate to the exact vibration that you previously sent. Worrying brings worry back to you; grateful brings more things to be grateful for. It’s as simple as that.

STAY CLEAR AND FOCUSED

Maintaining an image of what you desire and keeping that image clear through repeated focusing does wonders. If you give the Universe a half-drawn picture of what you want, the Universe will fill in the blanks, and it may not be what you intended. If you stay clear and focused, however, the people and situations you truly desire will start moving in your direction. Others will appear in your life that will, perhaps unconsciously, help you. Your vibrations are causing this to happen through being focused and by not swaying.

FOCUS ON THE OUTCOME, NOT THE ‘HOW’

Dwell on your end result. What it is that you want? Don’t worry about how it will get there; let the Universe take care of the in-betweens. This is the Universe at its best. It will give you what you want, but you must allow it to. Now is not the time for micro management. You will see the opportunities as they clearly open up to you. The Universe will give you exactly what you want or something better, always.

ENVISION IT NOW

See yourself in your vision NOW, not in the future or the Universe will comply, keeping your vision in the future. See it now. Feel it now. Hear it now. Sense it now. And be grateful; as if you already have it.

ASK FOR SIGNS, AND LOOK FOR THEM

Look for the signs that the Universe is hearing you, confirming that you are headed in the right direction. Signs are encouragement from the Universe. For example: You desire a new car and you see it and feel it clearly in your mind. Then one day you happen to be walking along and see the car that is the exact color and the make that you have been visualizing; that is a sign that the Universe is saying, “I’m working on it.” BE AWARE of the signs. Most people ignore signs, even when they are huge. And recognize the more subtle signs. Be on alert; they will be there.

These are just a few tips to encourage and move you closer to your heart’s desires, clearly attainable through the Law of Attraction. There is an unlimited supply for all, but if you see limits, you will receive limits. There are enough soul mates, excellent health, dream jobs, and money for everyone. There is an unlimited supply of everything, and you deserve all of it.

The Manifestation Catch-22

If we can manifest our own reality, why is it that you seem to have a problem getting started? Aside from the largest issue being that you think that someone else, a “higher authority” has told you that it cannot be done and that it is a foolish notion, why can’t you just give it a try. Of course, that is Catch-22 number one. You only want a test drive and you are fully aware that there are many things to try.

But, for the sake of argument, let’s say that you are going to be sincere in your effort. You have heard a lot about the Law of Attraction and you actually believe that it can be done and are convinced that others have been successful. You decide that the most pressing issue, at the moment, in your life is the lack of financial resources so that will be your first goal, to manifest some money. Catch-22! The catch is that you tell the Universe you lack financial resources so “lack” is your message.

You put all of your bills into a stack and figure out how much money you need. Catch-22! You are telling the Universe that you are needy. You then come up with a firm amount-could be a Catch-22-you are saying that is all you need. You then tell the Universe that you want to win the lottery to pay off you bills. Catch-22! Maybe the Universe has a better way to pay the bills that does not include the lottery. You buy some tickets and get angry that you do not win. Catch-22! Your anger gives power to you idea of financial deficiency.

Time for a different approach? You look at you bank statement and get concerned that you do not have enough money. Obvious Catch-22! You then decide that you are going to visualize your bank account with a certain sum. That’s okay in a way but you have in the back of your mind that your account needs more money. Catch-22! You sit back waiting for your checking account to grow. Catch-22! You are not taking any action. When it doesn’t, you get depressed, Catch-22, and you decide that the Law of Attraction is a bunch of bull. The Big Catch-22!

For those of you who are not familiar with Catch-22 it the title of a book by Joseph Heller. The notion is something like this. If you want to move to the U.S. you have to have a job. To have a job in the U.S. you must live here. That is the concept of Catch-22.

I offer the following from Dan Stone on The Shower Channel, “It can be a very difficult thing for you to hear and accept that you never really improve any situation by focusing on what’s going wrong. You never really solve a problem by focusing on the problem. You never get yourself to a place that feels better by focusing on what feels bad (but don’t tell the psychologists that).
A more precise and important way of putting it is that you cannot move forward in the direction of your dreams and desires when you are focused on the fear or the worry of failure. You cannot move in the direction of what you want when you are insisting upon staring at what is, where you are.
In fact we would encourage you to never pay attention to what is unless it is delightful to do so. Never give your attention to “what’s real” or “what’s true” unless that reality or that truth feels joyful or hopeful or comforting or reassuring or encouraging . . . For as long as you are giving your attention to anything that distresses or concerns or confuses or frustrates or scares you . . . then you are holding yourself in a place where the joy or the fulfillment or the love or the appreciation or the satisfaction cannot flow freely to you. You are stuck in a place that feels bad and you are stuck there for no reason other than that being what you are choosing to focus on.”

I hope that you can see the Catch-22 in all of this. The moment you try to solve a problem you are sending out mixed messages. You are affirming you have the problem. You are focusing attention on the problem and giving it energy. You are keeping it alive because where your thoughts and emotions go, so does the Law of Attraction. We are told to “take no thought…the fields are already white with harvest and if you have, more will be give.” The point is that when you give energy to a problem, you get more of the problem. What you give thought to is what the Universe will focus on. If you say you do not have, then you do not see the harvest in your life. If you focus on getting, the Universe responds by giving you getting. But, if you focus upon having, the Universe gives you more of what you have. Where your emotions go, the Universe goes also.

These are just some of the Catch-22’s. You must be ever vigilant about your thoughts and emotions. If your desire is money, tell the Universe you really like money and that you are thankful for the money in your life. Do not look down upon the lowly penny but rather give thanks for every penny you have or find. Gives thanks for every bill that you pay and be joyous that you are able to spread the wealth and share with others, even if they are the bill collectors. Focus upon the “have” and not the have not. Remember, every word that follows “I” is very powerful and sends a message to the Universe. Avoid using I want, I need, I don’t, I should, I wish, I need, etc.

I do not mean to focus upon money but it is such an easy example to use. The same applies to every aspect of life and all of your emotions. Do not hold yourself in place by focusing upon your current situation. Walk, talk, think and plan with an attitude of already having. When you change your mindset, things will begin to change and the Catch-22s will begin to fade from your life.

Spring Cleaning & Law of Attraction

Published by Other Authors under Law of Attraction

While it’s nice to freshen your living space, learning how to clean out limiting thought patterns and beliefs is even more important than washing the windows!

Ah, May! The days are getting longer and the buds on the trees are bursting. What a wonderful time of year to be awake and alive! Nourishing your body, mind and spirit has never been easier as more and more people find their way on the Law of Attraction path. So this year, with a little help from LOA, you can clean more than the cobwebs from the corners of your house.

First, let’s talk about the hottest buzzword of the decade, Law of Attraction. Simply stated, it means, “like attracts like.” There are many ways that’s expressed in our culture, such as ‘birds of a feather flock together’ or ‘misery loves company.’ What those expressions are communicating is that at the deepest level, we create our own reality based on our thoughts. It’s not just the thoughts that shape our lives; it’s how we feel about what we’re thinking about. Or, as Abraham-Hicks says it, “how you feel and what you get are always a match.”

At first, that may seem too daunting to even contemplate! But as you begin to work with this ancient universal spiritual principle, you come to appreciate its equanimity and even-handedness. That’s when the fun begins!

Does that mean you have to monitor every thought you think? Of course not! That would be impossible…and not a lot of fun. What is does mean is that the more you pay attention, the more you’ll notice what subjects trigger negative feelings and what subjects trigger positive ones. That’s where spring-cleaning comes in!

Let’s say you want a relationship in your life. How does that thought make you feel? Are you excited at the prospect? Or depressed that it hasn’t happened yet? Do you believe you’ll meet the mate of your dreams? Or do you believe “all the good ones are taken?”

What about money? Do you believe you can have as much as you want? Or do you think you’ll always need more? Are you someone who feels rich, no matter how much you have in the bank? Or do you feel poor, no matter how much you have in the bank? What other negative declarative statements are you harboring in your closet?

Spring-cleaning can bring you face to face with your long-held negative beliefs. A belief is only a thought we keep thinking. Sometimes, they are transparent beliefs – we don’t even realize we’re holding them until we look closely and see how they’re holding us back!

Here are some spring-cleaning tips to help you get on track for all of your greatest desires:

1. Make a list of the most important parts of your life. The list might include relationships, job, money, home, family, friends.
2. Write down whatever comes into your mind about those subjects.
3. Read what you’ve written with an awareness of how your beliefs shape your reality. Are there any thoughts or beliefs you might want to change? Great! You’ve found the hidden dust-bunnies!
4. Write affirmative statements in the present tense about the subjects you’ve chosen. For example, “I am living the life of my dreams with my soulmate.” Or, “I have a wonderful job that pays me more money than I need.”

In the same way you go through your closet at the start of the season, take some time to go through your beliefs and change the ones that don’t serve you. Not only will you start manifesting more quickly, you’ll find more room in your closet for a whole wardrobe of new thoughts!
