Is The Law Of Attraction Real Of Just Hype?
The law of attraction is essentially a belief or theory,
that "like attracts like," and that by focusing on positive
or negative thoughts, you attract positive or negative
results. Basically you attract into your life whatever you
think about, whether you want it or not. So if you
"truly" believe your thoughts, you literally have the
power to consciously and deliberately choose what you
want in life. What kind of money do you want to make?
While the law of attraction has received quite a bit of
publicity these days, the concept has been around for
centuries and has been known (and used successfully)
by many great minds throughout history. It has been
written in books that there is evidence
the law of attraction was used by Beethoven, Einstein,
and even Jesus. Many wonder why it works, and there
are reams upon reams of anecdotal evidence confirming
it does.
Two recent popular books promoting law of attraction
are The Secret (2007) by Rhonda Byrne, and Esther and
Jerry Hick's book Money and the Law of Attraction:
Learning to Attract Health, Wealth & Happiness (New
York Times Best Seller list Aug 2008). The Secret reveals
how you can change every aspect of your life. You can
turn any weakness or suffering into strength, power,
unlimited abundance, health and joy. The book Money,
and the Law of Attraction: Learning to Attract Wealth,
Health, and Happiness presents the teaching of the non-
physical consciousness named Abraham. The book
explains that the two subjects most chronically affected
by the powerful law of attraction are financial and
physical well-being. Both books offer very unique
reasons to think positively and teach that we have the
power to change our lives for the better.
We're all taught in school that all matter, whether
physical objects or living creatures, is made up of the
same energy called atoms. The theory is that this same
energy making up atoms is also a frequency created by
our thoughts. Thoughts are magnetic energy and create
a frequency similar to a radio or smart phone. As you go
through your day thinking, your thoughts are sent out
into the world and attract like things on the same
frequency. Picture yourself as a human transmission
tower emitting powerful waves of thoughts that are
changing the dynamics of your life each and every day.
Most people think about what they don't want instead
of thinking about what they do want. As gay men, when
we walk down the street, some of us think about what
might happen if we run into a homophobe and how they
might react to us. At work some of us think about how
our co-workers might respond to us. When we go to the
theater or to the market with other gay men, we
wonder if people recognize we're gay. But what happens
if we "stop" thinking about what we're afraid of and
"only" think about what we want? Now I will admit it
takes some practice to be aware of our thoughts and to
consciously learn to change them. But luckily as humans
we can discern and choose to think about what we
want. One
way to quiet the mind and get control of your thoughts
is to consider practicing meditation. Once you start to
catch and change your thoughts, you are on your way to
creating and obtaining the life you want.
Benjamin Franklin said "energy and persistence conquer
all things". Once you understand how the law of
attraction works then its up to you to transmit even
more powerful thoughts by adding feeling and clarity to
what you are wanting. You deserve all the good things
life has to offer so use persistent thinking to summon
them to you. If you're having a bad day, try to think of
events or memories that make you feel good to shift
your paradigm back to attractive thinking. Think of who
you love, or bring back fun or happy times that make
you smile.Writing down your goals and looking at them
every day can help you stay focused on what you're
trying to attract. Another way to stay on focus is to
place pictures of what you want where you will
frequently see them.When you really start to have
conscious thoughts (imagination, visualization) about
what you want to create or attract, you literally change
(I mean physically) and as a consequence of these
changes (thoughts), you start to have a new belief
system, which determines a new attitude, which then
determines new actions (acting, speaking, thinking),
which give you different results (a.k.a. getting what you
wanted to create or attract).
Think about what it is you truly believe. Do your
thoughts lack when it comes to what you desire? These
doubtful thoughts can be from how you grew up and can
keep you from attaining the life that you want. Discover
the thoughts that could be keeping you from "full" belief
in the law of attraction and from your best life.Be
grateful for the things you have and you will attract
more of them. Use your imagination to "literally" start
seeing yourself already having what you want. When
you accept all possibilities your subconscious mind has
nothing to resist and becomes free to accept the new
choice you are presenting it with. Make peace with all
that is happening to you and accept the rewards
that come your way.
We all work hard to make things happen for ourselves,
and then when the world offers then to us, often we
don't take them. Use the law of attraction to bring what
you want, then let go of past habits and happily receive
what you deserve.The basic premises of The Law of
Attraction is "like attracts like", or as it's officially stated,
"That which is like unto itself is drawn."Remember that
everything is energy and that all energy vibrates at
certain frequencies.Thus, as per The Law of Attraction,
lower vibrational energy attracts more lower vibrational
energy. (think fear, hate, jealousy, etc.) Higher
vibrational energy attracts more higher vibrational
energy, such as love, happiness, joy,
etc.
Most often, those who are aware of The Law of
Attraction and use it in their daily life focus on what
they're attracting to themselves.That knock-kneed clich,
"misery loves company", is a prime example of this
Universal Law in action. Nothing makes a victim happier
than finding another victim with whom they can
commiserate. And nothing makes them more
uncomfortable than being amongst happy people who
are satisfied with themselves and their lives.The Law of
Attraction is a powerful force in the Universe. But it
works in the opposite way, too. As we all know, for every
force there is an equal and opposite force.Aversion
Therapy could be called the anti-force of The Law of
Attraction. Instead
of attracting or magnetizing to you what you want, it
propels you away from what you don't want.Using the
Carrot vs. Stick theory, The Law of Attraction would be
the carrot and Aversion Therapy is the stick.
Example: when I quit smoking many years ago, I used
Aversion Therapy to notice all the icky things I didn't like
about that nasty habit. The smell on my clothes and in
my hair, the money I literally burned up each time I
bought cigarettes, how short of breath I was becoming
and my increasing predisposition to bronchitis. I used
The Law of Attraction to magnetize me to what I wanted
- better health, the ability to breathe freely, more
money, and to smell better! It worked super good and to
this day I have no desire for a cigarette.As Esther
Hicks/Abraham says, "You were given two emotions. You
call them many things - anger, fear, joy, happiness - but
there are only two. One feels good and
one feels bad." We were given these two feelings for use
as our guidance system.Power up your manifesting and
create what you want faster. Use Aversion Therapy to
propel you away from what doesn't feel good and which
you don't want. Use The Law of Attraction to attract to
you what does feel good and what you do want.
