Using the Law of Attraction to your Advantage

(?)

If you are like me, and were totally intrigued by "the Secret" DVD/book, were you able to take what you learned and apply it immediately to your every day life? I have to admit I was skeptical. It is (or was) my nature. But instead of being my normal self, I decided to dig a little deeper, and listen/read it over and over again. The one thing that kept repeating itself to me was this: "If you don't like the results in your life, then you need to change your thoughts". Sounds ridiculously easy, and yet why can’t we do just that? This is the whole premise of “the Law of Attraction”. This is what positive thinking can do for you.

It all makes sense, when you really think about it. Have you ever woken up in the morning, stubbed your toe on the bed, cut yourself in the shower, spilled your coffee, and the whole time you are thinking or saying to yourself, "this is going to be a bad day. I can tell already". Well, OF COURSE IT IS. You keep telling yourself that, and it will be done. Amazing how our brains work and then send that message out into the universe. Now what if you woke up, and said to yourself, "I am grateful for this warm bed that I sleep in, for the roof over my head, for the food in my belly, for my friends, for my dogs, etc.." Isn't that just a better way to start the day - by sending out positive thoughts out into the universe?

So in order to take advantage of what is no longer “the Secret”, but common knowledge, you need to take a look at your life as a whole. Take a look at every little thing/thought that comes into your day/your mind. Reverse the way you talk to yourself, if you find that you speak negatively or think negatively constantly. Try the opposite and see what happens. Immediately, you will see people responding to you differently. Depending on the depth of your negative thoughts/feelings, some might even be wondering if there is something wrong with you. But have no fear, because as you continue to alter the thoughts in your head, and the words that flow out of your mouth, those same words/thoughts are being tossed out in to the universe and will come back to you ten-fold.

One of the great tenants of the Law of Attraction is to be grateful on a daily basis. Yes, I know – be grateful when I hate my job, my kids drive me crazy, I have debt, etc? Yes, because people who show and exclaim their gratitude display to the universe that they are open to receiving even more. And even though some may not be in the spot where they would like to be at this time in their lives, everyone should be grateful for something, shouldn’t they? Clothes on your back, shoes on your feet, food in your stomach, transportation, clean water, etc. Especially in this country, we have so much more than most to be grateful for. It’s the little things that amount to even larger things in the end. Allow that to come to you by opening up to the universe.

This world of ours would be such a happier place if more people worked hard on using the Law of Attraction. It would be a kinder, more giving universe. Imagine the possibilities. Do yourself and others a favor by using positive thinking to your advantage and creating a world of possibilities that you never knew existed.
