The Law Of
Attraction - Creating The Life We Want
By Robin Retallick
The Law Of Attraction turns out to be the big one. It's the basis of
everything. Simply put the law is - "We attract into our
experience that, and only that, which we think about - whether wanted or
unwanted". This means that whatever we give our energy,
attention or focus, will inevitably be drawn to us.
The corollary is the Law Of No Assertion - "Nobody and
nothing can assert anything into our experience which is not a match to
our vibration". This means that nobody or nothing, (including
“God”, fate, friends, family, governments, strangers, tsunamis, star
signs etc. etc.) can cause us to experience something that does not
resonate with what we are thinking.
Another way of stating this law (putting it in terms more closely
aligned with the language of modern physics) is the Law Of Alternate
Realities - "We choose which reality to step into by the things
we give our energy, focus and attention". This last version
appeals to me - but pick whichever version suits you - they all mean the
same thing - we create our own reality.
Now let's think a little more on that "whether wanted or
unwanted" piece from the Law Of Attraction above. We all have an
Emotional Scale. To simplify, we either feel good or we feel bad. If
we're not feeling good, then what we're including in our thoughts is
what we don't want. The Emotional Scale runs from Depression-Grief-Fear-Anger-Frustration-Annoyance-Boredom
Where we're thinking about what we DON't want through to Contentment-Interest-Happiness-Excitement-Passion-Ecstasy
where we're thinking about what we DO want.
To put it another way - the Universe hears no negatives. So if we are
fearful that something might happen, we are attracting it. Nothing -
nada - zilch - is more important than feeling good. Our "work"
therefore is to get ourselves to the place where we focus on what we
want - to move ourselves up the scale from: Worry -> Hope ->
Optimism -> Confidence -> Certainty.
The more we can move >>> to the right hand end of the scale,
the faster we can manifest what we really want.
So what we’re spending our time thinking about is all-important.
And so is how we’re thinking about it. For every subject, we have a
resonant point of attraction. If you want to know where you are on any
subject, look around. What you're experiencing is where you're
resonating.
For a minute, pick a topic on which you’d like some change in your
life. For example – say money. Is your first reaction “not
enough”? Every time something you'd like-to-have flashes into your
awareness, is the like-to-have immediately drowned out by
can’t-afford-it? Or do you get into a feeling of delicious
anticipation? So where does action - doing things - fit into all of
this? Well first we need to understand what I call the BE-DO-HAVE™
principle.
In the world I was raised in, action was all important. It didn’t
matter whether I wanted to do it, or felt like doing it - I needed the
self-discipline to do it anyway. With a combination of hard work and
being lucky enough to be in the right place at the right time, maybe
things would turn out OK. Well according to the Law Of Attraction,
that’s all hooey. There's no such thing as "luck", and there
are no "accidents". Our actions in themselves cannot get us
what we want.
But - the Universe is a powerful orchestrator. It always responds to
our thoughts and always has us in the right place at the right time. To
take advantage of this, we have to reverse the process - to Be-Do-Have.
If we can see/feel/imagine ourselves where we want to BE, then we'll be
inspired to DO the things that will allow us to HAVE all that we want
(more on BE-DO-HAVE later).
So - if we look at the way successful people order their lives, we
see that many directly acknowledge this Law Of Attraction. Others, as
you begin to see the principles they live by, inherently take advantage
of it. That is they clearly order their lives according to its
principles. Also, there are legions of books on this subject - either
directly acknowledging the Law Of Attraction, or giving principles and
procedures that are in line with it. In summary, what they all say is -
spend time visualizing what you want, and it will appear.
A few quotes:
"Man must cease attributing his problems to his environment,
and learn again to exercise his will - his personal
responsibility." - Albert Schweitzer
"The greatest discovery of my generation is that human beings
can alter their lives by altering their attitudes of mind." -
William James
"Your circumstances may be uncongenial, but they shall not
remain so if you only perceive an ideal and strive to reach it. You
cannot travel within and stand still without." - James Allen
"Whatever your mind can conceive and can believe, it can
achieve." - Napoleon Hill
"Follow your bliss, and doors will open for you that you
never knew existed" - Joseph Campbell
Robin Retallick is a business owner and CEO who, like many of us, is
on a journey of discovery seeking some of life's answers and learning
how to achieve abundance. From early involvement with Christianity, he's
moved to an understanding of the Law Of Attraction with all that that
implies. As modern physics merges more into the world of the
"supernatural", he sees the potential reconciliation of the
spiritual with the scientific. He shares his insights, and processes and
resources that work. http://www.money-health-relationships.com/
