The Law of Attraction

When you don’t have a lot of money, spending it seems like a reckless move.  Most of us have a natural reaction to lack; we hang onto what we have a little tighter. 

However, where the Law of Attraction is concerned such a move will actually increase the intensity of our lack because it creates a blockage in the flow of energy through our lives.  This can affect not only our financial resources, but every other area of our lives.

Before you whip out the credit card and hit the shopping mall, let’s explore a few important points about spending and the Law of Attraction:

Why does restriction cause more lack?  If we think of this universe as one with finite resources, we can see the wisdom in carefully controlling how much we use.  There is only a limited amount of resources available, so excessive usage will deplete the supply.

However, the Law of Attraction teaches us that our own perception of limited resources is what results in depletion.  When we begin to hoard or hold back the use of resources we have, it blocks the flow of energy and creates stagnation. 

Stagnation will continue to pollute any new energy that manages to trickle in, which only strengthens the cycle of lack.  If we instead learn how to work with what we have, we could easily expand it into more.

How do we better work with what we have?  Though restricting the resources we have perpetuates the cycle of lack, spending more than we have will also create problems. 

The last thing you should do is use a credit card when you don’t have cash available, because you are setting up an energy deficit that will begin to eat away at not only the resources you have now, but any resources you may have coming in the near future! 

Instead, make it a point to spend only what you can afford to spend right now, and spend it wisely.  Purchase something that will bring greater joy and gratitude into your life, or even better – use your money in ways that can attract more money. 

Invest it in programs that will give you a greater return than a typical savings account, or consider starting a small business to create another opening for abundance to enter your life.

When it comes right down to it, it’s not about money; it’s about feeling wealthy.  Abundance and lack are nothing more than opposite views of the same concept.  Your belief that you don’t have enough money is what strengthens the reality. 

A focus on lack can cause you to become blinded to what you do have.  However, if you choose to see your current resources as an opportunity to attract more, you will feel more prosperous and encourage a continuous flow of money through your life.

By refusing to spend at all, you are in effect telling the universe that you don’t have “enough” – and the universe will take you at your word.

If you instead find ways to make your money work for you without restricting the flow of it into your life, you will affirm to the universe that there is more than enough to go around – and there will be.

Welcome back!

A circle of power, as it relates to the Law of Attraction, is a group of like minded individuals, who have purposed in their hearts, along with you, to meet regularly to join forces in your directional focus towards positive power and energy.

The number in your circle may vary, and only you can decide what the ideal number may be. The Bible tells us that where two or more are gathered, God is there among them. The number 3 is often looked upon as a powerful number, as is the number 7. You may choose to not even set a fixed number, and may be open to fluctuations in your circle.

The masters of this principle, however, do show a significant increase in focus and energy among those groups who decide to be committed to each other, at least for a season.

Set a time and day for regular meetings of the master minds in your group. People at or above your level of understanding of the Law of Attraction.

Be strict about promptness, and attendance. If a member is chronically late, or absent, considering asking them to step down from their position in your circle, as the negativity that could breed is potentially very damaging to the positive energy you are looking to build upon.

Make every effort to free your meeting place from distractions. Play some instrumental music, or other CD you find empowering, such as ocean sounds. Light a candle. Lower the lights, and place a `Please do not knock, or ring door bell’ on your front door.

Now that the setting is arranged, as the host of the power circle, it is your responsibility to prepare your heart prior to your partners arriving. Give your self enough time to decompress from whatever your day has brought.

Ask your Higher Power to help you clear your mind, and protect this time you have set aside. Be especially careful to notice if there is any area of your heart cast in darkness. Unforgiveness, bitterness, ungratefulness.

These negative feelings, and any others, will hamper your ability to reach higher ground spiritually, and therefore your positive connection to the Law of Attraction will be diminished, also.

Begin the power circle session by asking of your group to discern for themselves any negativity they may have carried with them to the meeting and as it is brought to mind, dealt with. Practice accountability in the circle, gently encouraging each other to be constantly striving for balance in all areas of life.

Be aware that the forming of a circle physically when you meet is very empowering. The circle symbolizes completion, continual movement, and is representative of eternity, having no visible beginning or end.

As part of the discipline you are learning, your consciousness will begin immediately to be altered towards relaxation and deeper focus, as you assume your positions around the circle. Your mind leaves the worrisome and mundane, and allows serenity to give way to an expectant joy.

Begin your circle time with a deep, cleansing breathe, and then, after a moment, one by one, verbally express your thankfulness for all that the Law of Attraction is doing for you. Understand the power of the Law of Attraction stands outside of our limited concept of time, so when you are purposely communicating with it, you, also, must be grateful for all that was, is and will be, in the present tense.

As each participant speaks their thankfulness for the successes to come, their partners around the circle will affirm and edify the positive statements being made.

Each time you gather, these simple acts will become more enriching to each member of the circle, and as victories within the partner’s lives are shared and celebrated the power of your circle with grow dramatically.

I can hear you wondering what do these diverse subjects have to do with each other! Well, chicken soup, as all moms know, is good for what ails you…

The Law of Attraction, on the other hand, has no singular ability to improve your health, or emotions, it’s boundless power can only reflect back to you the nature of energy which you yourself are discharging.

Hmmm, well, now that we’ve cleared that up! This discussion isn’t actually about the type of chicken soup that Joseph Campbell made a huge success out of canning, it is actually about a modern day success story, that of the  wildly popular `Chicken Soup for the Soul’ line of books.

More specially, it’s about Jack Canfield, the originator of what grew from a book idea he couldn’t market in 1992, into an entire Chicken Soup for the Soul empire known world wide today.

Prior to 1990, Jack, along with his co-originator of the CSS Corporation, Mark Hansen, was a much sought after motivational speaker. Today, Jack is still a highly desired inspirational lecturer, however he is now also recognized as an expert teacher on The Secret, the book and movie phenomenon explaining the Law of Attraction.

Featured in the movie, The Secret, Jack now also leads others on this proven path to immeasurable power that is available for each of our own uses.

Do you believe a man, with a book idea that 140 publishers once turned down, has something to share about the strength of believing in the power of creating your own future? Of course he does. Do you hesitate still? Do you believe you must possess some special talent or be at some financial or educational level before you can even pursue manifesting your destiny towards greatness?

Please understand, Jack Canfield is just one of countless modern day success stories who credit the Law of Attraction with the level their personal accomplishments. A majority of these achievement minded people go by names you will never hear on the news. Many will never write best selling books, and most will pass though this life with no public accolades.

What is important, though, is that they are practicing the Law of Attraction, they are creating their own good fortune, and they will leave behind a legacy in their own sphere of influence.

There is but one infinite power. There are universal spiritual laws, such as free will, and cause and effect, that are understood to be true, particularly be those who reach for enlightenment.

The natural laws of the universe are precise and unchanging. We live in a very orderly universe. Have you ever considered that if the sun were to move any closer to the earth we would all cease to exist due to the tremendous heat?

Flip that coin over, and realize that if the sun decided to pull away from the earth just a bit, we would be frozen very quickly. Your mind was wonderfully and magnificently created, and holds power beyond calculation.

The thoughts you are currently experiencing are things, not abject nothings, but solid manifestations of your emotions, generating a reflection of our own feelings and beliefs.

Are you satisfied with what has been coming into your life? If you truly are, I applaud you, since I must ascertain you are already an advocate of the Law of Attraction. If not, what is holding you back? A virtual ocean of goodness awaits your command to send in the waves of success.

I send you peace, joy, and love as you begin your future today…

The old adage, “You don’t need to be a rocket scientist” actually does apply to quantum physics! Your thoughts are things! Does that information stagger your consciousness? Your thoughts are actually creating your life!

You, as the owner of your thoughts, feelings, emotions, are designing your reality every moment, awake or not. What you experience on a daily basis is a mirror reflection of that which you are focused on.

You do not need to travel to a high mountain in India to receive enlightenment, it already exists in your conceptual self. What you will need to do is discover for yourself the vehicle that most easily enables you to  visualize your dreams, and ultimately causes them to be manifested in reality.

There are numerous tools available for your visualization needs. Power wheels, victory boards, and even a simple river rock can all help you deliberately direct your positive energy towards the life you desire.

The power wheel resembles a pizza, if you will, with a circle in the middle. In that circle you write down, or place a picture of, the desire you will be manifesting into actuality. Around the circle, in the `slices’ write down descriptions, or place more pictures of people who are already experiencing this specific type of success.

Don’t generalize! If you are envisioning a home with a rock fireplace in the 1500 square foot master bedroom, do not allow your energy to wander vaguely!

The Law of Attraction is extremely precise, as is any absolute truth, and it will not give you exactly what you want if your thoughts are less than concentrated. As you dwell devotedly on your power wheel be thankful for the home that will be, as if it already is. Imagine yourself decorating the home, entertaining in it, and especially experiencing the tranquility that only creating your own personal sanctuary can bring.

A victory board will generally be less structured than the power wheel, but with equally influential results. Purchase a poster board, or a bulletin board. Write extremely descriptive plans regarding your goal, and post these, along with photos or drawn images that coincide with your intentions.

This visualizing tool is very similar to the power wheel in concept, but just as there are many different dreams, there must exist different tools that enable your positive energy to be funneled in the right direction, also. It is not important which tool you avail, it only matters that you have one, and you are faithful to the concentration of your emotions towards that ultimate objective.

How can a lowly river rock help you achieve wildly ambitious aspirations? Quite simply, you carry it with you consistently, and whenever you feel it in your pocket, remember to visualize your dream.

Anything that keeps you focused, keeps you energized, and helps to maintain your joyful expectancy is worthy of your efforts as you discover for yourself which tool or tools work best for you.

There is no right or wrong way to call the Law of Attraction into action on your behalf, there is only doing it, and beginning today!

Isn’t it great to try a new restaurant and find it to be terrific? You can barely wait to tell others of your big discovery.

How about while shopping, when you `stumble across’ an immense sale, and get on your cell phone to alert your friends? Well, first of all, if you are at all familiar with the Law of Attraction, and universal power, you realize we don’t `stumble over’ anything, but the phrase makes a worthy point here, so we’ll allow it.

If these, and numerous other little delight make news in our circle, than why are you holding back on sharing the biggest `secret’ of your life.

It surely isn’t because you are concerned the power will run out if too many people are in on it, you are aware the Law of Attraction holds infinite power and always has. Surely it isn’t because you don’t want any competition for  the specific blessings you are focusing on, again, there is no limit to the amount of positive energy the Law of Attraction can send out.

What then causes you to contain your greatest discovery ever? Do you believe that some individuals may think of you differently if they knew you are `into’ that power of positive thinking `thing’? As we honestly examine that possibility, let us first look at some of the people who made the Law of Attraction their foundation for daily living.

From the late 1910s to 1920s Napoleon Hill, best known now for his classic work, `Think and Grow Rich’ first published in 1937, interviewed 500 of the most successful people in America, asking some of the most thought provoking and provocative questions revealing the most and persuasive concepts of accomplishments at that time, and many still to date.

Dale Carnegie, himself an astonishingly successful man, had commissioned Hill for this research, with the idea that with all the combined wisdom and experiences Hill would discover, there could be gleaned a formula for creating wealth.

During his research,  Hill interviewed many of the most famous people of that time, including Thomas Edison, Alexander Graham Bell, George Eastman, Henry Ford, Elmer Gates, John D. Rockefeller, Charles M. Schwab, F.W. Woolworth, William Wrigley Jr., John Wanamaker, William Jennings Bryan, Theodore Roosevelt, William H. Taft, Woodrow Wilson, Charles Allen Ward and Jennings Randolph.

The project lasted over two decades, during which time Hill became an advisor to Dale Carnegie…

All this extensive research lead to one central idea, one truth. The mind is an unimaginable power source, and used correctly will cause that which you concentrate your energies on to come to pass.

Now, with company the likes of the afore mentioned, will you still hesitate to share the secret to your success!

Tell someone today about the Law of Attraction, and how it has enhanced your life. Perhaps you too, if you desire, can create your own Master Mind group!
