Manifesting with the Law of Attraction

First, I’ll need to explain what Law of Attraction is and how it works. You see, the Law of Attraction states that you’ll attract to your life whatever you give your attention, energy and focus to, whether wanted or unwanted–emphasis on the unwanted. The “vibes” that you put out (also called vibrations) are either negative vibes or positive vibes, and at every moment, the Law of Attraction is responding to the vibes you are offering by giving you more of the same, whether wanted or unwanted.

If you are curious about what it is that you are offering vibrationally in any area of your life, you simply need to take a look at that area and see what you’re getting… it’s a perfect match. Mentally take a brief inventory of different relationships that you have in your life. For some people, there is a mixture of the kinds of people they have in their lives; some who support and uplift them, and others who are negative. So why do you attract negative people?

In both of these cases, you’re already experiencing the Law of Attraction. As you enjoy and appreciate certain people in your life, in that moment, you are offering positive vibrations. The Law of Attraction is unfolding and orchestrating whatever needs to happen to bring you more of the same. And as you notice and pay attention to the negative people in your life and the things that irritate you about them, you’ll see the Law of Attraction unfold to bring you more of the same. By shifting your focus and attention to what you do want, then you’ll change the results accordingly.

Want to know how to attract your ideal mate? Build a list of all the things you didn’t like about your current or last mate/partner. This list, we’ll call “contrast,” will help you understand. For example, if your list of negative things about ‘past mates’ includes someone that doesn’t take you to dinner, spend time with you, doesn’t uplift you, or spends too much time away travelling, now you’ll be able to see why you’re attracting this. Your list makes it clear, remembering that whatever you place your attention to, you’ll get more of it.

The Law of Attraction can only bring to you what you give your attention, energy and focus to, so change what you’re focusing your attention on by asking yourself, ‘What do I want?’ When you catch yourself thinking or saying what you don’t want, in that very moment, state what you do want. The words and the vibration will change. Remember, you can only hold one vibration at a time, so make it a good one!

In the example above, if we were to ask, “What do you want?” after each of those negative statements, our new list would bring us clarity about our ideal mate and would sound like: “My ideal mate takes me to dinner often, spends ample time with me, uplifts me, and spends a pleasing amount of time at home.” Can you feel the difference? It’s this feeling, or “vibe” that the Law of Attraction is responding to. Make sense? Go ahead and try it. Shift your attention to what you do want and know in that moment the Law of Attraction is responding to your vibration. The results will astonish you.

I am in the law of attraction niche. I have learned about it ten years ago and I have read all books I can find about it. I built a website 2 years ago and sometimes I search & browse other websites to see if I can find some new materials I can add to my site. There are 2 things I can’t help noticing, first, most often where there is the law of attraction, there is also The Secret by Rhonda Byrne; second, some uninformed & ignorant people considered The Secret to be the source of the law of attraction or that these two are synonymous. If you ever come across a site with this statement, don’t buy or subscribe to anything it offers because the webmaster does not know his stuff.

I have read The Secret too. Rhonda Byrne did impart the basic concept & application of the law of attraction and she included inputs from self-claiming gurus. However, it is hardly the best book on the subject. It is much too passive. You can tell if an author really has extensive knowledge & experience and feels passionately about the subject by the way he/she writes. Their own energy is reflected on their words. I cannot feel this from Byrne’s work.

Why am I harping so much about personal energies? Because we all know that the law of attraction is something proven only by experience. And it utilizes energies from our thoughts, words, actions & emotions. You cannot find a book or an article on the subject that do not link it to energy and the magnetism of thoughts. The central figure of the law of attraction is the SELF — so it is personal.

The title, The Secret is even a misnomer. People have known and have been writing about the law of attraction for ages. Here are some examples:

• As A Man Thinketh by James Allen (1902)
• The Science of Getting Rich by Wallace Wattles (1910)
• Think & Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill (1937)
• The Magic of Believing by Claude M. Bristol (1948)
• The Power of the Subconscious Mind by Joseph Murphy
• The Power of Positive Thinking by Norman Vincent Peale (1952)

Contemporary authors like the Hicks couple, Wayne Dyer, Neale Donald Walsch and Michael Losier among others, have also written and spoken extensively about the subject.

According to wikipedia, Byrne claimed that her inspiration for The Secret was Wattles’ The Science of Getting Rich which was published in 1910. If she had read about it from a person who wrote it a long time ago, then it is not a secret. So maybe the title is for commercial purposes or in reference to the author’s perceived ignorance of the general public about the law of attraction (sorry Abraham, you have not been successful in educating the public about it). If there is one thing Byrne knows a lot, it is making a good title.

Don’t think I am jealous or anything. I am not an author, but I have read extensively about the law of attraction long before The Secret came and have applied it. This is a personal opinion and if we differ in our views we just have to respect each other. You can post a comment below just don’t get nasty.

Bring to mind a time when you decided that you wanted something in your life; a vacation, a special book, or a household item. Did you notice that things relating to what you were wanting appeared out of nowhere–either you overheard someone talking about it, noticed an advertisement, a billboard or even junk mail? This, my friends, is the power of the Law of Attraction at work. The Law of Attraction states that all forms of matter and energy are attracted to that which is of a like vibration. “Like attracts like.” The thoughts we hold attract similar thoughts and become large masses of thoughts. These thoughts are also called vibrations.

I have been following the teaching of Abraham-Hicks, (one of the teachers of The Law of Attraction) for many years, and have adopted many of the suggestions offered from their work. Here is Abraham’s explanation of vibration.

If you’re wondering what you are vibrating, observe your life. It’s a perfect match. What you are living is what you are vibrating, without exception. So, if you’ve got something that you don’t want, identify what it is within your vibration that is giving it to you. The Law of Attraction is powerful, and whatever you are vibrating, the Universe will match.

One of the powerful tools I use from the Abraham teachings is the Creation Box. A Creation Box is simply a box or container where you store symbols, pictures, or descriptions, of your desires. Your Creation Box can be any size, shape, or colour–it is for you to enjoy and have fun with. A Creation Box helps you purify your vibration; in other words, you become more focused on the desire you put in it. Fill your Creation Box with pictures you tear out of magazines, sketches, doodles, or special notes that describe what you want. As you begin to play with your Creation Box, you will be knocked over by the speed and efficiency with which the Law of Attraction responds to the desires you have placed in your box.

Whatever you are focusing on, be it real or imagined, causes you to vibrate–and that vibration is what the Law of Attraction accepts as your point of attraction. The Law of Attraction does not know or care why you are vibrating–it only responds to your vibration. You get more of what you want and you get more of what you don’t want. The Creation Box process helps you to think, feel, and vibrate MORE of what you desire. I’ve been using a Creation Box since 1995, placing into it things that I want while remembering that the key here is not to become attached to how it will come to me.

Recently, a friend of mine noticed my Creation Box in my home and was curious about its purpose and contents. After explaining its purpose, I opened it up to share some of the special things I wanted to manifest. To my delight, I realized that a number of magazine clippings and notes of things I had desired had already come to me!

I hosted a Creation Box building party at my home and each of us created a special box for our dreams and desires. I invite you to prepare your special Creation Box with your friends and family, and watch your desires come to you in ways you couldn’t have imagined.
