Firstly, you need to realize is that the ‘Law of Attraction’ is at work in your daily life as you read these words. This may be a big surprise for you but what you need to realize is that the life you live is a perfect mirror image of what’s happening in your head. Unfortunately, most of what’s rattling around in the normal person’s mind is doing them damage rather than good because, left to its own devices, the subconscious mind is both backward looking and negative, constantly ‘enabling’ you – and that’s obviously not the correct word – to repeat all the learned reactions that are, currently, creating your life. In other words, as a result of the normal mind’s inner turmoil, it follows that the normal life is also in turmoil.

It doesn’t matter if you’re aware of or not, the ‘Law of Attraction’ is a reality in your life. I’m not certain, from reading some of the reams of stuff – often misleading stuff – on the subject, that many will have fully grasped the extraordinary importance of this situation. But say that you have. You already have a firm grasp of the fact that, to quote ‘The Secret’, your thoughts become things – what’s going on in your mind ends up manifesting in your life. You may have grasped this all-important concept intellectually – but intellectualizing these facts and being able to put this ‘manifesting’ into practice is a whole new ballgame.

If you don’t consciously take action each day to make certain that you’re in the right state of mind, then it really doesn’t matter how much you understand the way life works, you’re simply fooling yourself into the nice cosy notion that this ‘Law of Attraction’ can change your life for the better.

To truly practice the so-called “Law of Attraction” you need to clear your mind. There’s little point in filling your mind with thoughts of things that you want – no one knows for sure what they really want. Here’s a far better idea – fill your mind with the only place and time we are – the present moment. If you do that, you will coax your subconscious away from its obsession with both the past and the negative. You will become abnormally focused – efficient, effective, inspired and inspirational. In a clear and focused state of mind you will attract the very best in life, enabling you rise to places that normal people couldn’t imagine.

Surveys testify to people being more fearful, stressed and bewildered than ever before – even a world war didn’t give rise to such abject fear as we are witnessing in a century where we all swallowed the idea that humankind was finally rising to a new plane. In fact, the wartime spirit that galvanized nations throughout the second world war, has vanished from a world where obsession with money – fear or losing it, wanting more, not having enough – is the order of the day and it’s every man for himself. What the hell is going on – and I use the world ‘hell’ advisedly because it appears to me that the normal life is much nearer to hell than heaven.

Bestsellers like ‘The Secret’ and ‘The Power of Positive Thinking’ point towards a brighter, better life if you use your mind in the appropriate manner. In contrast, Barbara Ehrenreich in her book, ‘Smile or Die’, claims that positive thinking has destroyed the US and ruined the world.

Having worked in the self help ‘business’ since 1996 – having started out before it was fashionable to confide in your friends or colleagues that you were ‘into it’ – I am firmly of the belief that people reading these self help books are not just fooling themselves but are a danger to themselves and those around them. They read a little, get a ‘feel-good’ after-glow, perhaps even put a little of what they’ve read into practice for a bit and then con themselves into believing that things are either better or, even more dangerous, about to get better – the all-too-common general excuse for taking no action while the wheels come off your life.

Books don’t change your life. Action changes your life – real action on a daily basis – action that you have to take yourself. And I’ve seen precious little evidence of action. Sure, I see lots of reaction – but everyone reacts, we’re experts at is and it makes matters worse rather than better.

So, close up your self improvement books and ask yourself this probing question? What action could you take right now that can improve your lot if life? Not knowing your life, I’ve no idea whether major change is called for or, perhaps, it’s just something little. But I do know this – I am regularly questioning myself, challenging myself to ensure that I keep taking the little and large actions that need to be done to push – yes, you’ve got to push yourself – my life towards more and more happiness and excitement. And I regularly see the results.

Bob Proctor is one of the most endearing Teachers from the movie The Secret. He’s been around the block a time or two and has personally, made millions in his own lifetime.

You bet he knows what he’s talking about!

You may remember John Assaraf from the movie as well. He was the guy with the five year old son going through the boxes they were unpacking in their new home – the very home he found a picture of and had cut out and put on his Vision Board just five years earlier – this is what John says about Bob:

“When I met Bob Proctor I was 20 years old, flat broke and heading in the wrong direction in life. In addition, I had no idea how I was going to build a life for myself that would have meaning and purpose.

Well, it’s been twenty seven years since I first attended his program and what he taught me then and continued to teach me over the years has allowed me to make millions of dollars for myself and others while living an extraordinary fulfilling life.

I know for a fact,that if anyone applies what he teaches, they will achieve financial and life success beyond their wildest dreams.” John Assaraf

John Assaraf isn’t the only person to talk about Bob Proctor. I’ve read many authors who attribute their success to the teachings of Bob Proctor.

They think that if they ask for something from the universe they will get it.  While this is essentially true, what they don’t understand is that it is not just about their “verbiage.”

The law of attraction doesn’t work just because you verbalized a request.

It’s more than just words.  It’s about vibrations.  You know the term from the 60′s – vibes.  What are you emanating into the Universe?  What are your vibes?

Everything in this universe “vibrates” or resonates at a certain frequency.   Your thoughts and your feelings are a signal sent into the universe as a vibration that acts like a magnet to draw back to you the very thing you are aligning to.

The law of attraction is based upon the law of cause and effect.  For every cause there is a resultant effect.  And for every effect there is always a cause.

It’s very simple when you get down to it:

1. It is a law of the universe.
2. It is always working.
3. It doesn’t take belief to make it work.
4. It works the same for everyone, good or bad.
5. It cannot be changed.

The way it works is this:  when you have a thought that you focus on a lot and add feeling to that thought you are sending a magnetic request out into the universe that will draw back to you exactly what you are thinking and feeling.

Like the picture above, you draw to you what you focus on with great feeling.  The more focused the thought and feeling, the bigger the magnet.  Your focused thought and feeling are the magnet drawing to you whatever is in harmonic vibration with the magnet (the thought or feeling).

As a divine child of the universe, creation is your natural state.  The power that creates worlds flows through your being.  Your thoughts combined with feelings are powerful attractors.   Ever thought of something briefly only to have it show up in your experience within a few minutes?  Bet you weren’t paying attention or you would have noticed.  This is the law of attraction at work in your life.

Everything that is in your life in this moment is a result of something you desired and felt strongly about, one way or another.

Your thought imbued with emotion sends an ATTRACTING VIBRATION out into the quantum field that acts like a magnet to draw back to you the very same thing.

For instance, a man can visualize a sexual scenario in his head without touching his body in any way yet a subsequent physical reaction will occur in his body.  The thought combined with the feeling creates a physical manifestation.

The law of attraction works the same way with everything that you think and feel.  The stronger the thought and feeling, the bigger the vibration, the faster the subsequent manifestation into your life – allowing of course that your beliefs are such that you are not blocking the arrival of this person, place, thing, event, or circumstance in your life.

A belief is a thought you just keep thinking over and over.  If your dominant thoughts fall along the lines of  I’m not good enough or any other such thoughts of self degradation, this can act as a block to the good thing that you desire.

Or you can get the thing you desire but it is rampant with problems that underlie your most prevalent feelings of lack of self-worth.  You need to understand that the vibration you send out is what you get back.

Like in John Lennon‘s song, Instant Karma – what you put out into the Universe will surely find it’s way back to you.  If you’re putting out good vibes, you will get good vibes back.  If you’re putting out “bad” vibes, you’ll get bad vibes back.

The universe always says yes to you, regardless of what you are thinking.   Follow along with me as I play this game based upon the thinking process (the italics are the thoughts – the Universe always answers YES):

I’m not a lucky guy. YES.  I have a terrible golf swing. YES.  My boss is such an a** he is always picking on me. YES.  I can’t seem to get ahead. YES.

These thoughts are loaded with self-recrimination and self-doubt, huge pools of emotion – so this guy is creating scenarios in his life whereby he will continue to experience exactly what he is thinking and feeling.

The trick is to CHANGE YOUR THINKING.  We’re not talking just positive thinking here.  We’re talking changing the way you THINK about everything – once you understand that your thoughts and emotions are magnets for events, circumstances, things, people, and places to show up in your life, doesn’t it make you want to take charge of what’s going in and out of that head of yours?

If you find yourself thinking good things and feeling good things and bad things keep showing up in your life, it is because you have some deep unconscious beliefs about yourself and your world that you need to resolve or change.

But truthfully, the easiest way to make the law of attraction work to your gain is to start living your life with appreciation and gratitude for all that you have in your life.

Thankfulness is the key to receiving all that you desire.  Start and finish your day with a list of things you are grateful for and you will be amazed at how soon your life changes for the better.  But please note:  you cannot lie.  If you truly are not feeling gratitude, but just providing lip service, the only person you are fooling is you.  Remember – it’s not your words – it’s your vibes.  And the Universe always responds based upon vibrations.

Don’t believe me?  Read Victor Frankl‘s Man’s Search for Meaning – and maybe you’ll develop an appreciation for the freedom you have in this moment to read this article on the internet right now.  The simple act of heart-felt appreciation and gratitude will do wonders for the weariest of souls.
