Ever heard of a little book called The Secret? If not, you need to go out and get a copy right now. The Secret is all about the Law of Attraction. It helps you understand just how to get everything you want out of life. The Law of Attraction is a theory, and one that has been proven to be pretty powerful. It says that if you want something, you have to believe you already have it and it will eventually come to you. In addition, everything around you must remain positive – your thoughts, your environment, etc. The theory says it must be this way because if you don’t believe you have something or have a negative outlook about it, that think will never come to you.
Here’s an example to help you understand how the Law of Attraction works:
Let’s say I need or want a new car but don’t have the money. If my thoughts are only surrounding my lack of money, then I will never have enough. Instead, what I should do is picture myself driving that new car now. I’ll imagine the color, the made and model, how it handles, etc. When I do this, I give my mind’s eye a vision of what my new car will look like. And, I’ll be telling the Universe exactly what I’m looking for. Putting the thought out there is the way the Law of Attraction works.
Additionally, when you stay positive, you’re helping the Universe get a feeling for who you are. The thing to keep in mind is that one positive thought will affect everything around you. Negative thoughts can have the same impact. It’s like karma. What goes around comes around.
I’m a believer of this theory, but it took me awhile to get there. And there’s a few reasons…
1. I didn’t think that the simple belief in something was enough to get me what I wanted.
2. I needed proof that the theory actually works.
But after testing the waters, I’ve learned that this stuff actually works. I figured this all out by doing one thing – paying attention. After I said something negative, I’d notice not so good things happening in my life. Before I started observing, I would just say “Well, that’s how life works.” But the truth is, it’s not.
Now, here’s my challenge to you: Go out there and get The Secret. Head to your local book store (because we support small business) and pick yourself up a copy. Read it, then read it again, and then put everything you’ve learned into action. I’m glad I found this way of living and I bet you will be too.
