Attracting the Law of Attraction

What occurs in your life has less to do with where you were born, how you were raised or what you look like than you may think. 

Let me introducing you to the Law of Attraction. You may be familiar with the concept, but for those who are not I hope to present a brief, simplistic explanation on the Law of Attraction. 

I could go into reams and reams of the whys, wherefores, quantum mechanics and countless philosophical and scientific theories but I feel that would defeat the object of something so simple. 

Here goes. 

Most people can clearly express, in great detail and emotion, all the things that are going wrong in their lives. They are completely clear about the causes, why they are unhappy, and they probably talking about their woes incessantly. 

In general, we mix with people who are like us, who make the same amount of money and think the way we think. I don’t want to focus too much on negative aspects, but it is not hard to see why, if we are in a negative situation, we could indeed be attracting the same problems and situations into our lives, over and over again. Therefore, if like attracts like, and if you always do what you have always done, you will keep getting what you always get. 

“The Law of Attraction attracts to you everything you need, according to the nature of your thoughts. Your environment and financial condition are the perfect reflection of your habitual thinking.” Joseph Murphy

The Law of Attraction works by bringing you more of what you want, or what you don’t want, simply by you giving your attention to it. In other words you receive more of what you do, think, talk and focus on – whether that be wanted or unwanted. 

“Why is true success so relatively effortless? It might be likened to the magnetic field created by an electrical current through a wire. The higher the power of the current, the greater the magnetic field that it generates. And the magnetic field itself then influences everything in its presence.” David R. Hawkins, M.D., Ph.D 

There are many successful people around the world who are focused primarily on what they want and seamlessly attract people and situations into their life, with effortless ease. They create their thoughts, communications and beliefs around what they want as opposed to what they don’t want in their lives. Your thoughts, beliefs, expectations, words and actions create an energy field that attracts people and situations that match your own energy field. 

Managing your expectations is also a key point to the Law of Attraction. If you want to attract good things you need to be flexible and not think it is going to happen overnight, which could have a detrimental effect on your positive outlook. So it is important to maintain your positive focus – and your positive energy – on attracting positive things consistently. 

You can of course alter your focus at any time. Let’s say you have an idea that you want to become a travel consultant. While you research and focus on that role you discover you would much rather be a travel resort representative. You feel that it is right, you love the thought of being a rep, you can see yourself being in the resort, you imagine what it is like and your experiences and you hold that gaze, that vibration, that positive energy. 

In order for something to change, you have to change something. So by visualizing and talking about what you want, in great detail and emotion, you create the positive changes you want to make. By raising your energy vibration, through positive emotions, your level of attraction increases; attracting people, situations, finances and relationships that you want in your lives now. 

The last, and probably the most important, part of the Law of Attraction is learning to be grateful and appreciate what you already have. “…the essence of the vibration that keeps adventurous things coming, keeps you feeling always excited, stable and secure, and keeps you feeling in love with life. All day, every day, count your blessings! All day, every day, make your lists of things you appreciate. And as you keep activating what is working in your life, then more pleasing things on all subjects will flow to you.” Quote taken from Abraham – Hicks
