14. Goal Setting and
The Law of Attraction
The Law of Attraction is a theory that says you attract things and
experiences through your thoughts and actions. In other words, you
become what you think about.
If you think negative thoughts, you will attract negative experiences.
If you think positive thoughts, you will attract positive experiences.
For example, if you think you will fail a test, you WILL fail that test.
If you have faith that you will pass the test, you WILL pass that test.
BELIEVE that you can ACHIEVE your goals… and you WILL!
