All the ancient texts and religious writtings speak of it. Poets, teachers and sages have prnouched the good news of it for thousands of years. Books have been written about it. Songs have been song about it and people have made a fortune teaching it. But do you know enough about it to use it? The Law Of Attraction is probably the most powerful Universal Principle we know of, do you think, perhaps, you should learn a little more about it and maybe even use it to create your dreams?
The Law Of Attraction at its very basic level states that everything is created by thought and that thought attracts to itself physical things, people, situations and circumstances. Your predominant thoughts are activating the Law of Attraction this very moment and bringing these things into your life!
Having said that, you should also be aware that it is not only the outer material world that is affected by our creative abilities. Our bodies and our very personalities, characteristics, physical, mental and emotional attributes are all created by our thinking. Are you creating the life you desire & becoming the person you wish to be or are you like Job and bringing upon you all manner of woes because you are giving your attention to them? Perhaps you are even identifying yourself as a victim and refusing to acknowledge the Law and use it consciously!
Although the movie 'The Secret' told us this law was hidden for centuries. The Law Of Attraction is not really as much of a secret as they think. Having been in existence since the very begining of time, it is an unyielding, never bending, unbreakable Uiversal Rule. You cannot escape it! There is a great body of evidence that suggests mankind has known about, and utilised, the great Law for about 7000 years. But these teachings were hidden for thousands of years by those people who wished to control the population. Through hiding the laws of the universe and the knowledge that we create our own realities these dogmatic leeches could keep all the power for themselves and ensure no-one opposed their rule. The great Law Of Attraction was actually banned in the past.
It was largely at the beginning of the 20th century that the general public started to become aware of this great law due to the diligence, fortitude, integrity and grace of writers such as James Allen (1864-1912), Napoleon Hill (1883-1970) and Charles Haanel (1866-1949).
Wallace D. Wattles, born in 1860 and died in 1911, was also a forward thinking man. In the masterpiece, 'The Science Of Getting Rich' by Wattles, the author tells us "There is a thinking stuff from which all things are made, which, in its original state, permeates, penetrates, and fills the interspaces of the universe. A thought in this substance produces the thing that is imaged by the thought." How revolutionary that statement was in 1910.
Haanel set out in a 24 part correspondence course, which is now condensed into one volume called "The Master Key System", a complete guide to successfully using the Law Of Attraction! It was banned by the Church in 1933 due to its revelations. This is allegedly the book Bill Gates read before he created Microsoft!
Andrew Carnegie convinced Napolean Hill to write his bestseller 'Think & Grow Rich' after he proved to him that thoughts create your world and can be used to build riches. After twenty-five years of reasearch Hill released his book to the world.
James Allen wrote his famous work in 1912 and in "As a Man Thinketh" he tells people that "mind is the master-weaver, both of the inner garment of character and the outer garment of circumstance, and that, as they may have hitherto woven in ignorance and pain they may now weave in enlightenment and happiness."
However, although the teachings have been around for thousands of years and they have been readily and easily available to the general public for almost a century the great majority of people do not take the time to learn the workings of probably the most powerful physical law in the Universe.

Some definitions refer to the law of attraction as karma or the golden rule. You may have heard people say, "you get what you give?"; "what goes around, comes around?"; "karma"; "do unto others" and a host of others.
They're all right.
However, when I'm asked, "What is the Law of Attraction?", I like to summarize it in two 3-word phrases: "Like Attracts Like" and "Thoughts Become Things."
Like Attracts Like
Everything in the universe is composed of energy. If you were to take a peek inside your body, you'd see that you're made up of organs. With magnification, you'll see that your organs are made up of tissues. With even more magnification, you'd see that your tissues are made of cells; your cells are made of molecules; and your molecules are made of atoms. You may remember this from science class.
These atoms are made of even smaller ?components' called electrons, neutrons, and protons. Here's where science class got a little fuzzy for me. At the time I learned this, we were taught that the electrons, protons and neutrons were the smallest units of matter and this is where things stopped. What they didn't tell us is that these ?units of matter' are made of energy. More accurately stated, they ARE energy.
So in short, everything is made of energy. The computer you're using, or the newspaper you're reading this in?everything. And what's amazing is that these different energies have their own vibrational resonance. For this illustration, we'll call vibrational resonance "frequency" ? just like a radio station frequency.
So as this energy is emitting its frequency, there are other energies that are on the same frequency and they tend to draw towards one another.
If you were to tune your radio to 101.9 you would only be able to hear what's on the 101.9 frequency, which is being emitted from the 101.9 radio tower. It's the same with energy.
Have you ever sat next to someone and you ?just didn't feel right'? There may have been nothing ?wrong' with the person, but for some reason you just felt uncomfortable. It was because at that time, your energy was on a ?different frequency' as the person sitting next to you. Your energies clashed and it made you feel uncomfortable.
You will attract to you what you embody or what you are "like," in other words. If you're gloomy, you'll attract gloomy people. And if you're happy and cheerful, you'll attract happy, cheerful people (or at least, they'll become happy and cheerful because of YOU).
If you feel broke, you'll attract more of being "broke," because it's a match to you, to your energy. And if you feel prosperous, you will attract situations to help you be prosperous.
Thoughts Become Things
The other thing about the Law Of Attraction is that thoughts really do become things.
This can also be summed up more scientifically by the expression, "Energy is neither created, nor destroyed." So rephrasing the aforementioned statement, "If you put a loving a caring energy into the Universe, that same energy will be returned to you.
So the thoughts (energy) you put out will be returned to you (or ?created' in your reality)
Everything starts as a thought. That computer you're reading this on originated, at its essence, as the thought of Konrad Zuse, who invented the very first working programmable computer in 1941. Others, like Steve Jobs, believed computers could be accessible to anyone in their homes. And Zuse and Jobs began to manifest those realities for themselves before most thought they were "possible."
LOA is at the essence of everything that exists today. When you think of something you want AND you believe it can come, you will attract it to you. It will ultimately become your reality.
