What is the Law of Attraction?
ОглавлениеThe concepts behind the Law of Attraction go way back. In a nutshell, whatever you put into the world, you get back. The thinking behind this is related to Karma and is even the basis of the Golden Rule that we learn in school, do unto others as you would have others do unto you.
In order to attract good things, you must be a good person. If you spread anger into the world, you will only receive anger back.
This is a concept that spans several religions and philosophies. It is not just about wishing for things, it is a total overhaul of how you think, of how you approach life and how you treat others because when you do, the things that you want will come into your life.
The concept of the Law of Attraction goes beyond just your active thinking; it is rooted in your subconscious thinking.
You might be wondering how and why our subconscious thinking can affect anything about our lives. Because what we put into this world determines what we get out of it; in order to get what we want we must first change how we think.
The core of our personality and our emotions is deep within our subconscious. Our values and our beliefs are also embedded in our subconscious and because our thoughts drive our actions, our every action stems from our subconscious.
So if the Law of Attraction states that we get back what we put into the world, what does that mean?
How does that help bring us money or a better job? We use the emotional example, of anger, because it is a way to illustrate how this concept works, because people can relate to that example.
Everybody has had a bad day and when we are grumpy at others, they are grumpy back. When we have a good day, we smile and others smile back. It is easy to understand and relate to that example but it is a very simplified version of the Law of Attraction.
Part of the Law of Attraction operates on the belief that when you have the proper way of thinking, you can ask the universe for something and you will get it.
Asking is a simplified term, because you do not only ask for something but you feel as if you already have it. You have heard of the phrase that opposites attract. The very opposite of that is true when it comes to bringing abundance into your life.
By abundance we mean anything that you desire into your life; whatever you wish or ask for, allow for and then receive from the Universe is abundance.
Why ask the universe? Are we talking about religion? No, we are not talking in religious sense; we very literally mean the universe.
Everything is made up of energy. We are energy, the stars are energy, the planet is energy, even the furniture that we use and the clothes that we wear are energy.
Everything is broken down into molecules and inside of those molecules is motion, even if we cannot see it, there is molecular motion going on in the entire world.
Humans are in full control of one of the most powerful sources of energy in the universe, our minds. That is right; the human mind is a powerhouse of untapped energy.
Our brains are made up of neurons that communicate by sending electrical pulses and messages. That is energy.
Every thought that we have is energy. If the core of our personality and our emotions and indeed, the very things that define who we are can be found in the subconscious, then our every action and thought can be considered energy.
We are constantly projecting what we are thinking and feeling into the universe, even though we may not be aware of it.
When you utilize the Law of Attraction, you realize that your every thought is being projected out and that is what draws things to you. If you have the wrong thoughts, you have the wrong things drawn into your life.
By taking control of your thinking and changing it at the very deepest levels, you can control what you put out into the universe. That is the power of the Law of Attraction. That power can be harnessed and we are going to show you how to harness it.
Case Study – Sarah
Sarah is a thirty-five year old divorced woman. She has no children but has a string of failed relationships. Sarah has a job that she likes, but other people keep getting picked for promotion over her; people less qualified than Sarah is.
Sarah has what can be called very bad luck. If it can happen, it will. If she is running late for work already, she will get a flat tire or will end up taking the route to work that has heavy traffic.
She is clumsy and tells people that she is accident-prone, which she is. Life has handed Sarah so many setbacks that she wakes up every day feeling anxious because she never knows what bad news is just around the corner. Sarah feels that life is unfair and that she will never get ahead.
A friend tells her about the power of positive thinking and the Law of Attraction and Sarah begins to read up on it. Sarah decides that life is not bad; it is her attitude that is bad. Sarah begins to change her attitude and once she stops expecting bad things to happen, they stop happening. When she expected the worst that is what she got. When she changed and expected good things to happen then good things did indeed happen.
