Manifesting with the Law of Attraction

“A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.” ~Winston Churchill.

Gee, we have all heard enough about the power of positive thinking, right? You only get about 4 million hits when you type in the key words of ‘positive thinking’ in an I-net Google search. Positive thinking—easier said than done? Of course it is and that is also why any real worthwhile ‘how-to” advice costs a second mortgage on a 6K sq-foot, ocean-front house in Malibu.

It is Christmas time and ‘tis the season for giving. So I am going to offer a few very good inside tips about this highly touted positive thinking thing, free for the reading. How’s that for a great holiday deal? At least write back and tell me they are useful!

I don’t know of anyone who doesn’t believe in the power of positive thinking (even masochists view pain as positive!) but then again I don’t know many experts who can tell you how to do it (or are at least willing to do that for free). That is because it is all a common sense thing and common sense is always difficult to explain or teach. You see it when you see it and use it when you have it.

Here are some very valuable insights for those who would like to get a better handle on their own ability to think more positively.

1. Most thinking is unconscious. Opps, we start out with a formidable obstacle. Brain research tells us that most of the physiological/mental thinking we do is unconscious, so how do we analyze the content of our own thinking to determine where it is positive or negative? Slowing down long enough to think about your own thinking is not easy in this nanosecond instantaneous world we live in, but you will get nowhere by continuing with the speed game. So like it or not, you must discipline yourself to slow down at times to think about what you are telling yourself about another person or event, and then slowly notice the results you are getting with your own feelings and outcomes. Once or twice and you are on the right path.

2. Things aren’t always as they first appear. You might be thinking your thoughts are positive when they are actually subtly negative, or at least negative enough to attract negative, undesirable consequences. Wanting to get over an illness, lose weight, beat out another person for a promotion, or rid a marriage of conflicts are not positive thoughts that will get positive results. Thinking about good health, getting to the right weight for you, becoming an excellent employee who deserves a promotion and doing something to create a happy marriage are positive thoughts. Of course it takes a lot of discernment of your own thoughts to finally notice the sometimes subtle difference between these separate thinking styles. Again, once or twice starts you on the right path.

3. You must have ‘negative’ to appreciate ‘positive.’ The Yang and Yin of life involve both positive and negative things, or at least this and that dualistic categories, against which we compare and contrast our experiences. We probably carry things a little too far with over-ascribing good and bad-like qualities to these opposite things like wealth and poverty, beauty and homeliness, and truth and fiction. Lessening the tendency to over-flavor things as positive or negative is a very good way to release the iron-like grip that negative thinking may have on you. After all, if you don’t experience dark dreary rain you probably can’t appreciate the brilliance and warmth of sunlight. As it turns out, they are both just different sides to the same coin, just like positive and negative thinking.

4. You usually fail before you succeed. Nobody that has mastered the art of positive thinking was born that way. They had to overcome lots of negative thinking before they could succeed at being able to influence there own thinking to be more positive and get more positive results…(in becoming an over night success during a ten-year trail period). It is hard work and a gradual process, so be patient so you can be more sensitive to recognizing the moment of transition between failure and success. If you are presently failing with too much negative thinking (or getting too many negative results from your thinking), it is mainly so you can learn to succeed with more positive thinking, maybe sooner than you think.

5. Questioning basic assumptions is good. Personally I believe common sense starts when you finally wake up to the unavoidable realization that what you think you know may not necessarily be so. Then you start questioning your own basic assumptions and other things you are certain to be so, only to find out the real truth, like some of these other useful insights. One good assumption to question in your pursuit of positive thinking is the real value of the consequences you are getting from whatever thinking you are doing. When you don’t like the results you are getting, just trace them back to the thinking that created them.

6. You don’t get what you want until you want what you have. This is so true that it is boring, but never-the-less there is a lesson that must be learned. One of the best caveats of accessing the power of The Secret (Law of Attraction), is that it is a very good practice to show appreciation of what you do have. Even when I was homeless, jobless. loveless and penniless, I did have good health humor and friends. I certainly don’t have it all now, but I do have much to be thankful for that I am not bashful or frugal in acknowledging and appreciating (or as our back door sign says. “We may not be all together, but together we have it all.”)

7. Don’t be too hard on yourself (unless you really deserve it!). Most of the time we are doing better than we imagine and are in fact making good progress at growing up and improving into our best self. This includes doing what we need to do in taking advantage of the power of positive thinking. Probably the only time you should beat yourself up is when you fall asleep at the wheel or forget to return from your break. Onward and upward.

Now try any two of these solutions to positive thinking and double your mind pleasure. Try them all and show others your enjoyment radiance. And if you have the time and generosity, tell them how you did it. Merry Christmas.

Are you one of those people who believe there is no such thing as the law of attraction and all quoted examples of it in action are just a matter of luck or coincidence? Are you one of the people who believe we can attract whatever we want in life through positive energy, like human magnets? There are plausible arguments to be found for both sides in this debate. The only person who can decide which side you will take is you. Do you believe in the power of positive thinking or do you believe life is a series of random occurrences?

Why do some people seem to be so lucky? To put it another way, why does extreme good luck only seem to happen to other people? Is it all about coincidentally being in the right place at the right time or is there more to it than that? Can we bring good fortune to ourselves just by changing the way we think?

As an example, let’s look at the true story of a supermodel. A sixteen-year-old girl has left school with few academic qualifications and has little hope of getting a well-paid job. At the moment she has not been able to find any job at all. She is pretty enough but not striking, she is just an ordinary teenager. While shopping in a supermarket with her mother, she is approached by a talent scout. The girl is introduced to a famous modelling agency and within a few months she is earning an absolute fortune. Her face is on the cover of glossy magazines and on everyone’s TV screen. She travels to spectacular locations to be photographed. She models the latest designer fashions all over the world. Her dramatic rise to overnight fame is featured in gossip columns and on the front page of the tabloid newspapers. She remains one of the most highly paid models in the fashion world for years and eventually retires a very rich woman.

Is this story an example of how pure blind luck works or is there more going on than what we see on the surface? Do you believe the girl just happened to be in the right place at the right time? How likely is it that a talent scout, while shopping in a supermarket, would notice an ordinary-looking girl among the crowds? How much luck would have to be involved for the girl to turn out to be highly photogenic and interested in becoming a model? What makes her so different that she avoids the potential dangers of her glamorous lifestyle? When other girls in a similar situation have succumbed to the temptations of alcohol and drug abuse or have been drawn into unhappy relationships, this girl remained focused on her career and family. She enjoyed every moment of her success and was not damaged by it.

If you believe in the power of positive thinking and the law of attraction you might consider that it was all a matter of magnetism. It could be that this young girl, who had always dreamed of a glamorous lifestyle, had set her mind firmly on becoming a model. She knew what she wanted to achieve and was positive that she would reach her goal. By radiating a distinct positive message, she attracted the talent scout to the supermarket at a time he was looking around for a “new face”. By maintaining focus on her goals, she remained at the top of her profession and avoided the negative influences which were all around her.

Do you live an intentional life or do you wait for coincidences? Do you live your life as a series of accidents or are you in control?

Did you know by conquering your fears you can turn your dreams into reality? Get anything you want in life by simply unleashing the full powers of your mind!

Do you believe in your heart that you can attain anything? You can if you allow your mind and heart to believe you can! Only you have the power – the power to mold your personality, the power to shape your future according to the lifestyle you wanted to live, and the power to create your destiny.

Think about it, no one can shape you but you! Have you ever thought about how powerful you truly are? Maybe, you are capable of achieving, accomplishing and attaining your heart’s deepest desires – just by allowing the hidden powers of your mind break free from fear!

I stumbled upon a book title “I Can. Therefore, I Will! Unleashing the Full Potentials of Your Mind” that taught me how to do just that! I learned to train my mind how to create positive reality through positive thoughts.

One of my favorite quotes says, “If you think you can or you can’t, you’re right.”

I have no doubt, that I can accomplish anything if I put my mind and heart into it. You can do the same. The only problem is that many people do not know how to use their minds to their best advantage.

Is there any instance in your life that you refuse to do a particular job, say joining a beauty contest or singing in front of a crowd, because you think you cannot do it? Recently while on a cruise, I attended karaoke night and to my amazement, there were people with good singing voice but plenty with not so good singing voice. What made them sing those with not so good singing voice?

Simple, they thought they could sing and that is all that truly matters. My opinion is just that my opinion and they did not care about my opinion. Their mind told their heart they could sing.

You are at the starting line and the finishing line right now. Whether you choose to run the track, determines your strength.

You have not started the competition yet, but you have already lost because you did not make an attempt.

That is true! Losing is not about being able to win; it is more about not trying. Therefore, the moment you say ‘no’ to something, it is just as bad as giving up and accepting your failure. As long as you run, the race is what counts not what position you place.

Success is not always achieving your goal, or winning award; rather, it is getting up after you have fallen and never losing hope to finish what you once started.

“When at first you do not succeed, try, try again”. Really, there is no harm in trying.

The harm is not believing in you can – deciding you are worthless and insignificant!
When you do not believe in yourself – what you can be or what you can do – then you having thoughts such as I am not good enough, or I cannot really do that.

The mind is powerful. Once these thoughts enter your system, they will turn into reality!
You see live or death, good or evil, right or wrong, I can or I cannot are only two choices which one you choose is what you will believe.

Fill your mind with positive thoughts and it will fill your heart with courage that will fill your life with love, joy, peace and happiness.

Take back control of your mind’s unlimited power, you will be able to handle complex situations, solve tough problems, think of new ideas, improve your decision-making capabilities and become more confident like never before!

From the book titled “I Can. Therefore, I Will: Unleashing the Full Potentials of Your Mind”. I listed some essential things you need to know about the human mind and how to utilize its extraordinary abilities to the extreme!

Here is some of the information you will find inside:

How the mind becomes an empowering agent.

The relationship between the left and right brain.

How new things and challenges help in training the mind for positive thinking.

How positive are positive thoughts. How negative are negative thoughts.

If empowerment is not simply giving authority to someone or something, then what is it?

The reason behind the story of two brothers whose father is drunk – one becomes an alcoholic and the other becomes a professional.

The two types of thoughts the mind generates.

Why our minds should focus on the brighter things in life.

How the mind becomes unbiased towards any impression.

Why we should prefer the positive power of thinking rather than the negative one.

The difference between mind and matter.

How our mind does what our five senses cannot perform well.

And much, much, more!

The power to achieve your dreams is all in either the way you think you can or you cannot! Having the right knowledge and application, you will achieve and overcome all of lives obstacles, destroy anxiety and insecurities from you past and finish the race you started toward success.

Remember the proper use of your mind, focusing on the task and accomplishing your goal will be a snap.

The holidays are just around the corner this book will make a great gift. You can empower yourself and loved ones by getting a copy of “I Can. Therefore, I Will”.
