Law of Attraction - My Unique Relationship to It

Does Law of Attraction Work Differently for Each of Us?

Several years after the movie "The Secret", information and writing about the Law of Attraction still abounds everywhere on the internet.The reasons for that are many and here are the ones I can think of:

• It's true. My husband, a scientist, assures me that Law of Attraction is. I've also seen What the Bleep (5 times) and read some books on quantum physics. When I'm feeling smart I understand that it is true, too.

• Everyone wants more in their life that they like. How do we know we don't like this thing or that person or a certain situation? Inside is some image we have of what we want and like. So we know if we aren't getting it.


• Everyone wants to know how to get that life and do it on purpose. Sometimes we even have bad feelings and judgments about someone just because it all looks so easy for them.


• We all want to feel like the architects of our own lives.

I've written about it before. However, I was giving myself a little talk before because I had thoughts like, "You should be on twitter. You should do a better job of SEO on your blog, blah, blah, blah." Anyway, as my clients know, I practice what I preach so I was busy reminding myself what is true for me and what has worked so well in my life:

1. I know I attract what I put my attention on. Everyone attracts what they put their attention on - Law of Attraction in a nutshell. However, we are each different. We look different, we have different genetics, etc. Obvious. But it is my opinion and observation that we each attract differently too. Some people attract what they want by going very directly after it - hence the highly successful salesperson you just love and can't really resist either. That is not me. If I tried to sell you anything, you'd probably want to run the other way. Literally, after much experience (some of it grueling) I have learned I need to wait to be asked.


2. I know if I don't get my fear and lack thoughts pretty much out of my head, I will not be attracting what I want. I will be attracting what I'm focusing on.


3. Since feelings follow thought and I sometimes just quickly feel things, I need to know how to process through those feelings and back to center (positive) as quickly as I can. But denying my feelings doesn't work. It is just me trying to trick myself. So, in other words, just positive thinking doesn't work.
