What is the Law of Attraction?
Most of
the time, we attract by "default" rather than by deliberate choice.
We just sort of go through our day, focusing on problems that need to be
solved or on things that did not feel good nor seem right. In so doing, we
are actually creating more problems, more of what
does not feel good and more of what does not seem right. Think of
yourself as a huge magnet. The kind that pulls metal to itself from afar off.
It doesn't "try" to attract, it simply does attract. It is the same
way for us. Whether or not we are trying to attract, we ARE doing so all the
time. (Except when we are asleep.) And we attract the likeness of what we
think about. If we are thinking about a lack of something, we are attracting
more lack (scarcity). If we are thinking about something we love, we are
attracting more of what we love and enjoy. I know it sounds incredibly
simple, and it is. We humans
are actually very powerful attractors and we can use
this wonderful power to attract more of what we want in life--simply by
paying attention to where we place our thoughts and desires. An old
proverb just came to my mind: "As a man thinks in his heart, so is
he." Proverbs 23:7 It's interesting that the writer of this proverb says
"thinks in his heart" because most of the time, we think that we
think with our mind. However, it is truly from the heart where we do our
thinking, our believing, our "vibrating". It is from
the heart that we attract. Picture your heart as a powerful magnet. The heart
is the "broadcaster" of a wide bandwidth of signals (energy
vibrations) which draw to us people, situations or
things in vibrational harmony. Think of a
radio. It has many different stations. To listen to a station
you dial a specific frequency. As soon as we turn our attention to something
(dial it's frequency) it begins moving toward us. On the
surface we see the art of deliberate Attraction as consisting of three parts: 1.
Getting very clear about what it is we desire We have the opportunity to gain clarity in knowing precisely
what we desire, through the many "contrasts" that life offers us.
The key to successfully using contrast is to observe it briefly and
use it to help you decided on what is wanted. This takes a little practice,
since our habit is to talk about, tell others about and focus on what we did not
like. Here
are three phrases I use to help me raise my vibrations, incrementally. They
are: 1.
"I'm in the process of attracting to me...." (State the desire) These three phrases are true, because: **Once I
start examining the contrast and clarifying my desire, I AM in a process. **Once I
am in this process, the Universe, or Law of Attraction goes to work on my
behalf, arranging circumstances, aligning people and purposes, so that my
desire and I connect. **Once I
imagine how I feel having my desire, I am a vibrational match and the Law of Attraction has no other choice but to
grant my desire. So, why
does it sometimes take a seemingly long time for my desire to manifest? And why
does it seem that something I did not desire has blind-sided me? What
happened to cause me to loose that desired object so
quickly after it arrived? And why
don't I win the lottery, when I kept my thoughts so positive and focused on
winning? |
