Reasons for Failure in Practicing the Law of Attraction and How to Make it Work:
There are many factors that could come into play if you find yourself not being able to utilize the Law of Attraction in your life. Take a look at this list and see if there is anything you might be missing or need to work on.
No Goals: If you do not write down your goals, how will you remember them? You must write down your goals. This action in itself can help you understand where you stand now and where you want to be. This is an easy thing to correct and help you make the Law of Attraction work for you. If you simply try to remember your goals without writing them down you will find that they may not manifest physically for you. Writing them down is the first physical action of bringing your goals to realization.
Forgetting Goals: Another mistake some people make with the Law of Attraction is writing down their goals and leaving them somewhere in storage where they simply gather dust. You will most likely forget your goals in the first place. In order for your goals to bring you the inspiration and determination, you need to always keep them in mind, you need to read them regularly, and bond with them consistently on an emotional basis.
Taking No Action: What will happen with your goals and your dreams if you take no action? Nothing! Your goals will remain goals, and your dreams will remain dreams. You must take action on your goals to achieve your dreams. You must put in the work necessary to achieve your dreams, and accomplish each goal you have. Using the Law of Attraction you are changing your lifestyle in the way you behave, in the way you talk to yourself, in the way you think, and in the way you act. All of these things are a way of changing your particular lifestyle. This can be frightening for some, or difficult to change old habits. However, if you take no action towards your goals and dreams they will remain just that. If you want to change your life you must change with it. You must be the first person to say I want a better life for myself, and then take action to make those changes. Only you can take action to achieve your goals and dreams.
Thinking Negatively: Sometimes the negative can seem to creep in your mind no matter how hard you try to think positively. There is always a reason for this, and you can change your way of thinking to think positively. Sometimes negative thoughts can come from fear, or from low self-esteem, or from the belief that you do not deserve anything positive in your life. None of these things are true! You must think past these negative thoughts even if you are just faking it in the beginning. Think positively even if you do not believe it. Eventually, your subconscious will begin working with your conscious and you will believe these positive thoughts. That is all it takes. Well, that and a lot of patience with yourself. If you have thought this way for a long time it may be difficult in the beginning. However, you can accomplish what you want in life, you do deserve it, and you should not be afraid to make your life better for yourself! You can do it! You can achieve what you want in your life, but negative thinking has no place in your goals and dreams.
When 'The Secret' movie came out, millions of people were introduced to the Law of Attraction and were advised that through positive thinking, gratitude and action they could attract into their lives what they wanted. Unfortunately, "The Secret" movie was merely a primer and was never meant to be a comprehensive resource; this unfortunately has left many individuals confused and frustrated wondering how it all fits together.
One common complaint I hear is that people are thinking and being positive but aren't seeing the results. Probing more into what they are doing, they share with me that they are doing *everything* they can to think positive BUT what I discover is that they're ignoring how they really feel.
It's unfortunate that people believe they can have what they want by thinking positive, putting on a happy face, focusing on what they want but completely ignoring their emotions and body signals.
It doesn't work this way.
Because of the Law of Attraction, the Universe responds to our whole being. We are made up of energy that vibrates at a specific frequency. Everything we do, feel, think, etc. also vibrates with energy and this energy surrounds us. As we move through our lives, we are walking advertisements and the Universe constantly reflects back the energy we're vibrating. It's always a perfect match. It works in the same way tuning forks work. If you strike a tuning fork, another tuning fork of the same note will also vibrate even if it's across the room.
So, when you are thinking positive but are also feeling worried, fear or doubt, the Universe picks up on all your vibrational signals and feeds back to you an experience of a similar vibration. Usually what happens is that your 'negative' emotions cancel out your positive thinking and you experience this as feeling stuck. No energy is moving. Sometimes your 'negative' emotions are stronger in frequency (they're more frequent) than your positive thinking and you attract more thoughts, emotions and experiences that help you feel more fear, worried, and doubtful. This can create spiraling-out-of-control feelings.
The Law of Attraction does not discriminate. It always gives you back what you are vibrating. Therefore it is vital that you always 'clean up' your vibrations so that you attract exactly what you want.
Here is a simple 4-step process to help you get clearer on what you want and therefore 'send out' a clearer signal to the Universe.
STEP 1: Write down your goal - what you want to have (i.e. new TV, a loving partner, a new house, etc.)
STEP 2: In relation to your goal, from Step 1, list all the things you don't want.
In this step you're uncovering what you don't want to have happen, what you don't want to feel, and the reasons why you can't have what you want. I call these your 'Yeah-Buts'. When they come up, you feel negative emotions, which negate your positive energy. By identifying your 'Yeah-Buts', you are clearing out those energy patterns that have blocked your attraction process in the past.
STEP 3: Now write down what you do want. I often look at each statement from my "don't want" list and rewrite it positively.
STEP 4: Take each item on your "Do Want" list and ask yourself why you want it. How would you feel if you had each list item? Would you feel happy? Loved? Appreciated? Valued?
When you connect with how you would feel, you are essentially getting in touch with why you want something. And, as you're writing down your feelings, you're connecting energetically with what you desire. You're magnetizing your desires to you because the Universe is constantly feeding back to you what you put out, moment by moment, per the Law of Attraction. The more time you spend in this feeling place, the easier it will be to manifest what you want.
In closing, I encourage you to use this 4-step process often. I feel that it helps us get in touch with that part of ourselves that we often ignore and discredit, yet often has the biggest impact in our manifestation efforts. We effectively create what we want through the Law of Attraction when we use our whole being instead of just our minds.
