365 Ways to Live the Law Of Attraction (day 6)

Be Aware of Your Thoughts


It is important to understand that your thoughts can attract things you don't want. Whatever you fear most and think about often of obsessively can also manifest. For example, you may love hiking, but your greatest fear is that someday you'll encounter a rattlesnake. Repetitive thoughts that are charged with fear can set up the experience unless you let go of it. It's better th banish such dark thoughts. Don't give up hiking in the desert. Instead, be measured, thoughtful, studied and prudent about undertaking such a hike. Knowing what precautions to take in order to have a safe hike. Replace your fearful thoughts with a surefire belief in a higher power working through you and with you at all times ensuring your safety.

**My Two Cents... The Law simply states that what we put out we get back. So, if our focus is always on the snake and not the hike, it's inevitable that we will find one... When we find out minds focusing on the negative it's okay to make a point to stop and think of something else. Just because you are correcting yourself doesn't mean you have to ever admit to being wrong!

365 Ways to Live the Law Of Attraction (day 5)

The Law in Modern Times


Some say the Law of Attraction concept is possibly just an updated version of teachings of the late Wallace Wattle (1860-1911) and those of Dr. Norman Vincent Peale (1898-1993.)  Wattle, who was born into poverty and became wealthy, wrote about the science of getting rich. Peale became famous for his ideas about the power of positive thinking. Both men emphasized the role of conscious and intensely focused thought in achieving the desired goal. Both men believed in a higher power and work in human lives. Wattles referred to it as "formless" intelligence and substance. Peale, a clergyman, spoke and wrote the power and presence of God.

**My Two Cents...  Hmm... I will be doing some research on these men! It's amazing to me that this is a Law or at least an idea that people from all forms of religious background can get behind. May you call that ultimate energy resource the Universe, God, Goddess or something else it's wonderful that everyone has at least one thing to agree on...

Origins of the Law


According to some who have studied it, the universal great Law of Attraction has been with us since the beginning of time, perhaps even at the moment of creation and the beginning of thought.  Others say it's impossible to pinpoint exactly when the concept entered human consciousness.

Some self-help experts say the Law of Attraction possibly dates as far back as 6,000 or 7,000 years ago where it found expression in the mystical traditions and beliefs of the ancients. Magicians of long ago certainly observed and wrote about affinities between things before the advents of science. Translations of ancient texts suggest that our spiritual ancestors thought a lot about the heaven and earth and all the creatures that existed as well as pondered the relationships between things.

**My two cents... As I said before I am no expert. But it simply makes sense to me that the Law is something beyond you and me. It's impossible for us to understand exactly when this Law came in to effect. However, I would have to think that it's at least as old as creation itself, if not older being that it's not just something we created. It's nature and the natural transference of energy from us to the universe and back...

365 Ways to Live the Law Of Attraction (day 3)

Attraction Can Bring What You DO or DON'T Want


Proponents of the Law Of Attraction say that the law brings you whatever you think about most. Thoughts can become emotionally charged. When you desire something, say, a new outfit, you also feel emotion each time your mind things about having that new dress, jacket, shoes, and handbag. You are filled with excitement at the possibility of having your desire fulfilled. You believe you can have it. You deserve it. It's coming. You consider ways to speed up getting the outfit. You might even develop a plan of action for getting the money to go shopping at the mall.

**My two cents... Something I think that should have been touched on here was like the title says. That emotion can work both for or against us. If we are placing our positive emotion into getting that new outfit, feeling the joy of having it even before we buy it and making a plan of attack to go and get it, chances are likely that we will get the outfit. But it works in reverse as well. If you are only focused on the idea that you DON'T have the outfit, or that you CAN'T afford it or feeling bad because you don't have it yet, you are not going to attract the proper energy to change that situation...  Like Attracts Like. So, when we focus on what we DON'T have we are only adding to the list. When we begin to focus on what we DO have or how happy we will be when we DO have something (even in the future) we are attracting more to us.

365 Ways to Live the Law Of Attraction (day 2)

How the Law Works


If you've heard old adages such as, "like attracts like," "birds of a feather flock together," as above, so below," and "what you send out comes back multiplied many times over," or the words in the New Testament spoken by Jesus, "ask and ye shall receive," then you may have an idea of what the Law of Attraction is. Simply put, the Law of Attraction asserts that a person's thoughts objects, people and situations and circumstances, both positive and negative, into his or her life. Proponents of the Law of Attraction assert that the law brings you what you desire when you are 1) clear about what you want, 2) energize your desire for the item with thoughts, emotion, visual imagery, and also talk about it and believe it is coming, and 3) feel and express gratitude for what you already have and that which you desire, even if it has not yet come in to your experience.

**My two cents ~ I love how this points out the idea that we have all already come in to contact with the Law and don't even know it. When I first heard about the Law I was so clueless as to what was being said. Then once I started to do my research I started to understand that this was something I have heard over and over again since I was small... That made it much easier for me to accept. Many times you will hear about these new fad books or systems and they are not always on the up and up... But in this case the Law has been around since time began and we can see that in the practices, stories and myths surrounding both Ancient and Present day cultures and religions all over the world...  It almost feels like I'm taping in to that Ancient Understanding...  It's truly a wonderful feeling once you start to learn, accept and use the Law in your own life.
