Believe it or Not ” The Law of Attraction

Ever since the release of the movie The Secret, there has been quite a buzz, especially in business circles, regarding this phenomenon called the Law of Attraction. In fact, many books, seminars, and other resources have become mandatory components of employee education in many businesses around the world. How then, can we get some of this power for ourselves?

This isnt meant in a metaphorical way, either. Many dedicated teachers and students of the Law firmly believe that it is as much a universal reality as gravity. If you literally do what I just told you to do in the last paragraph, you should get whatever you want, be it money (it probably is), healthy relationships, and success.

Im sorry; I just cant completely believe that just for asking the Universe for something and behaving like it is on the way is going to make anything happen, unless of course its by coincidence. However, with that being said, I think that the Law of Attraction still works. Huh?…I mean to say of course, that the Law of Attraction will make you successful not because the laws of physics say it will, but because by following its teachings, you are basically doing what the worlds most successful folks have been doing for years: setting a clear goal for what they want, and being confident that they can get it.

Think about it. If you are going to ask the Universe for what you want, you have to know exactly what that something is. It cant be vague, like happiness or success, but a specific, tangible goal. And making a goal and sticking to it is what pretty much every coaching and mentoring program on the planet tells you to do first. Theres nothing supernatural or magic about it, its just a good idea for attaining success.

The next, and for some, the hardest, step of the Law of Attraction, is to take tangible action. This goes without saying if you are trying to achieve a goal, right? The logistics behind it working for the Law of Attraction go like this: if you REALLY want something, the only way to actually prove it is to take action towards making it happen. If you say you want something but dont take steps to get it, then it is just an idle whim.

So, the last part is acceptance. Some people say that this is the most important part of the Law of Attraction. It basically means that you have to be able to recognize when the world is giving you what you asked of it, because your desires dont always come in the exact same form that we imagined. What this means to non-believers? It means that the most important skill is opportunity recognition. Every day, hundreds of great opportunities might pass you by if you dont recognize them for what they are.

Limiting yourself to only taking the most perfect opportunity you can think of will ultimately mean that you dont do anything. Nothing is ever good enough.

So basically, you can believe that the Law of Attraction is the forces of nature working for you, or you can believe that it is you making everything happen. Either way, you will get results.
