What's the Law of Attraction?

The Law of Attraction (combined with subjective reality) simply says that you attract into your life whatever you think about. It also means that whatever's happening in your life right now is manifested as a result of what you think about --that includes all things positive (eg. getting married your perfect soulmate) and negative (eg. the violence and injustice you read in the news everyday). To apply this law positively in your life, here's some steps you can use:


  1. Make a list of things that you want in your life.
  2. Visualize as if all the things that you want are already fulfilled in real life. Imagine what kind of life you'd be living when you have everything you've asked for.
  3. Think of the things that you already have that you're grateful for.
  4. Be patient, for the Law of Attraction takes time to activate.
Steve Pavlina has a great article on explaining the Law of Attraction. Rhonda Brynes made a movie-length dvd clip of the wonderful world of the Law of Attraction called "The Secret".

This is not some new theory that's just evolved. Here's some free resources you can read / listen to. James Allen (1864-1812) wrote about it in his book "As a man thinketh". Earl Nightingale talked about it as "The strangest secret". http://www.scienceofgettingrich.net/ and http://www.scienceofbeingwell.net/ share experiences and success stories of applying principles found in two of Wallace D. Wattles' most popular books.

Some people find that this theory (of being responsible for everything that happened, is happening and is going to happen in their lives) is too extreme. The world might be getting more and more depressing nowadays, and being held responsible for all the crimes, violence, global warning etc is simply too much for them to bear. It's not a realistic theory, they say.

Well, for me, this theory empowers me! At least I CAN make a positive contribution to this world (or rather, my world) by simply thinking positively! And if everyone else is part of me, or a projection of me, then it makes sense for me to make an effort in seeing the positive intention behind every action anyone takes, however negative that person seems to be.

Maybe you'd like to put this theory to the test?
You can join Deepak Chopra in creating a peace movement larger than any military movement in the world. http://www.peaceisthewayglobalcommunity.org/index.aspx, and /or you can join Steve Pavlina's Million Dollar experiment using the power of intention. http://www.stevepavlina.com/million-dollar-experiment.htm
