You may not know anything about the Law of Attraction, or ever even heard about it…
But it’s been running your life. And will continue to do so.
Let that sink in.
All the people, places, circumstance and experiences that make up your life are being brought together and orchestrated by this powerful force.
Now that I’ve got your attention, let me tell you a little bit more about it.
What is the Law of Attraction?
The Law of Attraction is an organising principle that works throughout all of creation.
Rather like a universal matchmaking service, it’s a magnetic force that brings together (or ‘attracts’), people, events and circumstances based on their ‘vibration’ (see below).
Even though you may not have actually come across this term; it’s still likely that you’re already familiar with the general principle.
Chances are, you may have even heard it being expressed in one or more of the following ways:
- ‘We reap what we sow’
- ‘Birds of a feather flock together’
- ‘What goes around comes around’
- ‘Cause and effect’
- ‘Karma’
These ideas reflect the basic nature of the Law of Attraction, which dictates that ‘like attracts like’.
So now that you know what it is, and you can also relate to the idea, you’re probably saying, ‘That’s nothing new’. And you’re also probably wondering what all the fuss is about.
Well, I’ll tell you.
Yes, it might seem familiar. And yes, it’s not exactly something new. But there’s a twist – and a very big one that!
Your Thoughts Create Your Reality
You see, the scope and operation of the Law of Attraction go way beyond the physical and material world – the world of our five senses.
Unlike the laws of physics, such as gravity, the Law of Attraction responds not only to physical events and stimuli, but also to thoughts, feelings, emotions and beliefs… the things that together make up a person’s mindset and ‘vibration’.
According to the Law of Attraction, ‘thoughts are things’ and we get what we think and feel about.
This is why it is regarded by many as a metaphysical principle and a spiritual law.
It is not biased and it doesn’t play favourites. It will work the same way for everyone.
What You Put out Is What Comes Back to You
Now there may be a million possible realities out there, but you will only be able to perceive and experience the one that you are a match to.
And the good news is that, with a little bit of work (in the thought and feeling domain), you can become a match to anything or change what you’re already a match to (if you don’t like it).
It’s like changing the software or app on a device. The physical apparatus stays the same, but the product or result varies greatly depending on the software that is active.
Vibration
Just like sound, light and temperature in nature; and radio signals and wifi in our man-made world; every thought you think has a frequency or a signature that can be measured.
The thoughts that you think predominantly create an energetic signature, which is your vibration. This is the signal that you broadcasting out into the Universe. And very much like a profile on a dating site, your vibration determines what you attract and what comes back to you.
So in order to use the Law of Attraction to create the reality you want, you have to change your thoughts and beliefs and become a vibrational match what you want (more on this in a subsequent post).
Why You Should Be Excited
‘All of this is well and good,’ you say, ‘but what does it have to do with me?’
Well, everything! Let me explain:
By learning to deliberately apply the Law of Attraction, you can have, do or be, anything you want.
If there is anything in your life that you do not like, you can change it. You’re never stuck because anything that thought has created, it can uncreate.
And since you’re harnessing the power of the Universe, which is limitless and always working, you can achieve so much more when you work in harmony with this principle than you could ever hope to accomplish on your own.
The possibilities are endless and the world truly is your oyster.
I hope that excites you. I know it excites me.
‘The Secret’
I first learned about the Law of Attraction after reading a book called ‘The Secret’ by Rhonda Byrne and watching the movie by the same title. It literally changed my life. It filled me full of hope, optimism and positivity and showed me just how much was possible in life.
And although I’m still learning how to use and apply the Law of Attraction, it has already had a huge impact on my life and brought me many things that I have longed for in life.
I’ll be sharing more on these subjects in the coming posts, so stay tuned. You can sign up to receive posts by email, using the form at the top of the page. That way, you’ll never miss another post.
I’d like to leave you with the trailer for the movie, The Secret. I encourage you to watch this movie if you haven’t already done so. It’s available online on Netflix and other platforms. You can even get the audiobook for free if you sign up for a trial on Audible.
Until next time, take care.
