Recently the release of the movies "The Secret" and "What The Bleep Do We Know" have created quite a stir of curiosity. Many people have been inspired by the information released in these movies and are now contemplating how they can begin to adopt the Law of Attraction and positive thinking as part of their everyday living. The movies were an amazing forward for those who have not previously heard of the Law of Attraction and quantum physics, and were released at a time of immense spiritual transformation and conscious awakening on our abundant planet.
How do you define the Law of Attraction? In the words of Abraham this universal law can be explained as "That which is like unto itself is drawn". Whatever you focus on a consistent basis, you will attract into your life.
Our universe, and everything within it, is made up of energy fields that produce varying vibrational frequencies. Our words, thoughts, feelings, actions, beliefs and attitudes all contain vibrations which are attracted to other like vibrations. Our current reality is a representation of what we have created,invited or attracted with our words, actions, thoughts and feelings. The quotation by Thomas Dreir is a great explanation of this universal law 'The world is a great mirror. It reflects back to you what you are. If you are loving, if you are friendly, if you are helpful, the world will prove to be loving and friendly and helpful in return. The world is what you are.'
Unfortunately, manifesting your desires is not quite as simple as taking time out to visualize your desires and from there the Law of Attraction and positive thinking will do the rest. Unless you have a magic genie hidden under your bed it is unlikely that millions of dollars will magically appear in your life as you sit on the couch meditating on your dream of becoming unbelievably rich. Yes, we definitely do have to determine what we wish to achieve and visualize what we desire, however there are two other vital ingredients which are extremely important if you wish to achieve your gaols.
Firstly, focus attention on what you desire and feel the excitement within as if your desire is currently in your reality. If it is a new car that you desire, then feel the excitement as you hold in your hand the keys to your dream car - visualize the color and shape, smell the leather interior, hear the purr of the engine and feel the power as you drive your brand new car out on the open highway.
Secondly, if you would like to achieve your goals more quickly you must do something that moves you towards your goal. Visualizing and talking about your goals is fantastic, however, by consciously putting in place a daily action, be it big or small, you will bring your dreams into your reality much quicker.
Our Universe is abundantly generous and willing and able to deliver our requests - so be careful when wishing for something and ensure that it is truly what you desire. It is time for you to take control and actively create the life your desire by applying the Law of Attraction and positive thinking.
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. These are what I call the 'Yeah-Buts'. When they come up, you feel negative emotions, which negate your positive energy. So it's best to point them out now so they don't get in the way later.
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?
By getting in touch with how you would feel, you're getting to the core of 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 highly recommend doing 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.
