What is the Law of Attraction?
The Law of Attraction, simply put, means that “like attracts like.” Applied to thinking and spirituality, this idea applied means that, in general, positive thoughts attract positive results, and negative thoughts attract negative results.
This idea applies to even the subconscious, a person does not have to actively take any action in a positive or negative direction to have this “law” apply. Basically, the Law of Attraction states that you will get what you think about, and that your thoughts have a powerful effect on your experiences.
The ideas raised by the Law of Attraction are sometimes controversial. For example, how can two people want for the same thing and get it? Or, when bad things happen to good people, did they “ask for it?” These types of questions and controversies seem to weaken the ideas behind the Law of Attraction, but they are essentially over-generalizations of the ideas.
The Law of Attraction would not suggest that you can control another person’s thoughts or their reality. You are only in charge of your own. This means you can only affect your own reality, and how much the Law of Attraction can help you. Worrying about how others have certain things happen to them only interferes with your own ability to use positive thinking to make positive changes for your own life.
You have the power to create your own reality, according to the Law of Attraction. This power is neutral by design. The Law of Attraction applies just as powerfully to negative thoughts as it does to positive ones. You must choose which experiences you want to attract, and then focus all of your energies on having those experiences manifest themselves in your life. Not fully embracing the ideas behind the Law of Attraction, and not truly focusing on obtaining the results you hope for can lead to confusion and ambivalence.
The Law of Attraction is already applying to your life. If you are finding yourself struggling with difficult issues one day, and experiencing success on another, then start concentrating on the power of the Law of Attraction. Exclude the negative thoughts and actions that are bringing the negative results, and refocus that energy on to positive thinking. Watch your new reality unfold before your eyes with the power of positive thinking.
Positive thinking can result in improved self-esteem and self image. The subconscious mind power that we all possess can bring about very welcome changes. Whether you are experiencing hard times or brilliant success, your life experiences can be made better just by applying the Law of Attraction to your own thinking.
To get started using the Law of Attraction, begin by becoming very, very clear about what you want and what you hope for. Concentrate fully on this desire. Visualize yourself obtaining this or reaching this level in your life. Focus on your desire, and expect it.
Then, sit back and wait for it to happen. Block out any feelings of frustration, any idea that you don’t deserve it, any thoughts that “it probably won’t happen.” These are things that significantly interfere with the workings of the Law of Attraction, although keep in mind that they apply directly, because you will be inviting the negative results!
