The Law of Attraction

The Law of Attraction

The law of attraction is based on the best-seller book entitled The Secret (2006) authored by Rhonda Byrne. The law of attraction is the secret!

Primarily, the law of attraction (can be Byrne's Law) is --
Like attracts like!

When you think a thought, you are attracting like thoughts to you. We attract what is happening. What we think about and say about, we bring about! And the secret is unearthed: "Everything that's coming into your life you are attracting into your life. And it's attracted to you by virtue of the images you're holding in your mind. It's what you're thinking. Whatever is going on in your mind you are attracting to you."

The secret law applies to several dimensions: attracting positive thinking, attracting love, attracting money, attracting health, and attracting relationship.


Law of Attracting Positive Thinking


You are like a human transmission tower,
transmitting a frequency with your thoughts.
If you want to change anything in your life,
change the frequency by changing your thoughts.

Nothing can come into your experiences (or existence)
unless you summon it through persistent thoughts.

It is impossible to feel bad and at the same time have good thoughts. So try hard to feel good always.

Nurture and tap your 'secret shifters', such as pleasant memories, enjoy nature, watch a good movie, or listen to your favorite music. They can change your feelings and shift your frequency in an instant.

Process of the law of attraction: (also known as the 'creative process'):
ASK, BELIEVE AND RECEIVE.

Create your day in advance by thinking the way
you want it to go, and you will create your life intentionally.

Develop the habit of saying thank you. Inculcate a sense of gratitude -- the so called 'attitude of gratitude.' Always be grateful for what you already have, and you will attract more good things.

Expectation is a powerful attractive force. Expect the things you want, and don't expect the things you don't want.

At the end of everyday, before you go to sleep, go back through the events of the day. The events or moments that were not what you wanted, replay them in your mind the way you wanted them to go.

Anything we focus on, we do create. So if we're really angry, for instance, at a war that's going on, or strife, or suffering, we're adding our energy to it. We're pushing ourselves, and that only creates resistance. What we resist persists.
There is a need to positivize!

Learn from Mother Theresa, she knew the law of attraction. She said: "I will never attend an anti-war rally. If you have a peace rally, invite me."

So if you're anti-war, be pro-peace instead. If you're anti-hunger, be pro-people who have more than enough to eat. If you're anti-corruption, be pro-integrity. If you are anti-a-particular politician, be pro-his opponent. Often elections are tipped in favor of the person that the people hate because he's getting all the energy and all the focus.

What you resist, you attract, because you are powerfully focused on it with emotion. To change anything, go within and emit a new signal with your thoughts and feelings.

You cannot help the world by focusing on the negative things. As you focus on the world's negative events, you not only add to them, but you also bring more negative things into your own life.

The essence of law of attraction is that you must think abundance, see abundance, feel abundance, believe abundance. Let no thought of limitation enter your mind.


Law of Attracting Love


The feeling of love is the highest frequency you can emit.
The greater the love you feel and emit,
the greater the power you are harnessing.


Law of Attracting Money


To attract money, focus on wealth.
It is impossible to bring more money into your life
when you focus on the lack of it.

Feeling happy now is the first way
to bring money into your life.


Law of Attracting Relationship


When you want to attract a relationship, 
make sure your thoughts, words, actions and surroundings
do not contradict your desires.


Treat yourself with love and respect,
and you will attract people who show you love and respect.


To make a relationship work, focus on what you appreciate
about the other person, and not your complaints.
When you focus on the strengths,
you will get more of them.


Law of Attracting Health


Every unpleasant thought is a bad thing 
literally put in the body.


Laughter attracts joy, releases negativity 
and leads to miraculous cures.


Disease is held in the body by thought,
by observation of the illness,
and by the attention given to the illness.


If you are feeling a little unwell, don't talk about it --
unless you want more of it.


If you listen to people talk about their illness,
you add energy to their illness.

Instead, change the conversation to good things

and give powerful thoughts to seeing these people in health.


INSIGHTS: The Law of Attraction is a pat on the back, as compared to the Murphy's Law. This could be Byrne's Law versus Murphy's Law in terms of our outlook in life. But maybe just like the Murphy's Law turned upside down, Byrne's Law of Attraction makes a lot of sense on how we could live the everyday life and handle its many problems. The law basically challenges us of disposition. Even as in generating this insight, it is a vote of disposition!
