Law of Attraction and the story of The Shoemaker and the Elves
I’m sure most people are familiar with the story of the Shoemaker and the Elves. But how does it relate to the concept of the law of attraction? As matter of giving a background to this post, I would like to relate a part of this wonderful fairy tale.
Once upon a time, there was a shoemaker who was barely making ends meet. Due to poverty, he could only afford to buy enough leather for one pair of shoes. So every night, he would cut out the leather according to the shoe style he wanted to make; and laid them on his workbench ready to be sewn into a brand new pair of shoes early the following morning. One night, as was his habit, he left the leather on his workbench and retired for the night. He woke up early the following morning ready to start sewing. To his amazement and utter disbelief, there on his wooden workbench, stood a fine and perfectly sewn pair of shoes ready to be sold!
As you know, the story didn’t end there. It went on to tell us that a pair of elves has been responsible for the finished pair of shoes that the Shoemaker found every morning.
The story is a good analogy of how to easily manifest your desires through the law of attraction. Our job is to know what we want to achieve, but we must leave it up to the universe how to achieve them. The cut out leather represents our own preparations of what we want to manifest. Through positive affirmations, creative visualizations and our own self confidence, we lay out the details (cutting the leather to desired style) of the finished product (the pair of shoes).
