Law of Attraction Secrets 101

I find it so interesting to talk to people about Law of Attraction and read a lot of the posts I come across that talk about Law of Attraction. There are lots and LOTS of them out there! On a daily basis there are a smattering of posts that talk about how the Law of Attraction doesn’t always work.

I won’t go into how if you are focused on the lack of what you want, that is what you get and that IS Law of Attraction at work! There is a more subtle component that people don’t always pick up on.

I was watching a video today where the person presenting claimed that it didn’t work all of the time because sometimes you got stuff you never asked for and never thought about and sometimes you never got what you DID want, etc.

One of the core concepts of the Law of Attraction is that we live in a vibrationally based universe, and the exact experience that we attract to ourselves is based on matching the vibration that we are offering. It is the ESSENCE of what we are vibrating that we attract into our experience - this is something that I have heard from Abraham-Hicks for a long time, but I think it is missed by many.

So what does that mean? It means that you attract an experience that vibrates on that same frequency, but not necessarily an exact match to the thought you had in your head.

Let’s explore what that might look like or feel like.

You may decide that you want to live in a particular location. I did that from the time I was a kid - I heard that Arizona was warm all of the time, and the sun was out almost every day. Everything I heard about it sounded good, and I decided that was where I wanted to live when I grew up. I used to tell my parents that all the time - when I grow up I’m going to live in Phoenix! And they would laugh. We lived in the Northeastern part of the United States and it was grey most of the year.

I grew up and sort of forgot about that dream. I stayed in that area for quite a few years, until I took a job as a consultant. Then I started moving around quite a lot. My office was in the Los Angeles area, and sometimes I would live there for a few weeks or months between assignments, working in the office. I didn’t expect to like it there because it was so crowded and bizarre . . . But surprisingly, I had a great time there.

It finally occurred to me that I really got what I had wanted! I thought I had to live in Phoenix but what I was looking for was the sunny and warm part, the exact location really didn’t matter that much. I had the ESSENCE of my desire.

Another example of this might be a relationship. You may dream of the perfect relationship - a partner that you really enjoy spending time with, you never run out of things to talk about, you create a magnificent life with. As you daydream about this person, he or she starts to take shape in your mind - you may picture a certain color of hair, body type, etc. Yet the real ESSENCE of your desired partner is what you are looking for, not an exact match to the PICTURE you have in your head. When you finally meet this person, they may look totally different from how they appeared in your imagination and you could care less - the feeling that you were looking for is there, or something even better than you had ever thought.

In these sorts of examples it is easy to see that there is a slight difference but maybe not that much. But getting the essence of your desires could be less obvious in some cases. You may have a business and you want to be extremely successful. You work and dream, and make pictures of selling hundreds of thousands of widgets. You believe you will be the greatest widget maker ever! But maybe in the process of making your widgets, you stumble upon a new technique that really helps in widget production. Maybe you get a patent for it. And you talk about it to people around you.

Pretty soon you are being invited to speak about your technique and what led you to its discovery. You find an unknown talent for speaking, and soon you are giving seminars and work shops and maybe even appear on Oprah!

You lose interest in widget making and sell the company, but go on to inspire entrepreneurs the world over with your presentations. Maybe you write a best-selling book or two.

You have what you wanted - SUCCESS! People know who you are and admire you, but most of them forget you even made widgets. So while you are not known as being the greatest widget maker ever, you are successful and well known - the ESSENCE of what you wanted.

So dream your dreams and believe in what you want, but keep an open mind about the form they come to you in. It may not be an exact match, but it is the FEELING that you are looking for. The ESSENCE of what you want may show up as something even better than anything you could have imagined!

One of the things that I have noticed when talking to most people that have been exposed to the Law of Attraction, is how it immediately seemed to resonate with something deep inside. Like it was something that was always KNOWN but had been forgotten - and just HEARING about it made them feel incredibly happy. I know that is how I felt!

In my first encounter with Law of Attraction, it wasn’t actually CALLED that. A dear friend of mine that lives in Australia emailed me a copy of The Science of Getting Rich. I sat and read that little book all the way through, and kept saying “WOW - I always knew that was true, but I have never heard anyone SAY that before!” I felt like the meaning and focus of my whole life changed in that moment. It was sort of like the blue/red pill in The Matrix - once you learned The Truth, you could never go back to your old way of being. There was something about that knowledge that permeates your being.

As we all find out more about the Law of Attraction, we realize that feelings are the driver, the vibration, of what is brought into our experience. And the more intense those feelings, and the fewer conflicts that we have about having those feelings, the faster manifestation occurs.

I find that when I start slipping into darker thoughts, one of the best ways to refocus my attention on the life I am deliberately creating is to think about Law of Attraction and the power that it gives me over my own experience. Immediately I start to feel better.

There are lots and lots of ways to refocus our thoughts, but sometimes when I am in the midst of some old habitual patterns this method is much easier than changing the way I am thinking about the THING at that moment. Once I reconnect with the Power of Deliberate Creation, I find it difficult to even pick up the thread of my earlier, darker thoughts - which makes me happier still!

The intent of the Law of Attraction Secrets 101 blog is to explore the hot topic of “Law of Attraction” and the Secret about the Secret about the Secret stuff that you see all over the Internet! How many secrets can there be about the Law of Attraction anyway??

Together we can examine what the Law of Attraction is and how to take advantage of the KNOWLEDGE of Law of Attraction.

I do believe that Law of Attraction describes a principle by which the universe operates. However, having grown up in a very “scientifically” oriented family, I understand that there are a multitude of criticisms directed toward the Law of Attraction concept. Regardless of how many people claim that Quantum Physics PROVES its validity, technically that is just not true.

What it does do, however, is offer a theory that allows for the possibility of the existence of Law of Attraction. While I understand the position that science takes regarding the definition of a LAW, I also believe that just because the Law of Attraction hasn’t been proven in a concrete way doesn’t mean that it is not true.

I have never come across anything that disproves it to me. It just feels so RIGHT! So, for our purposes here we are going to look at Law of Attraction as a LAW, that is something that holds true all of the time, not something that holds true sometimes and not others. Or for some people but not others.

I can’t help but notice posts where people start off by saying Law of Attraction didn’t work for them . . . even the language they use to describe how they know it didn’t work speaks volumes about why it actually WAS working! It is all about what/where they are vibrating . . .

Anyone else notice that?

The secret Law of Attraction holds is not whether it works or not, it is in the knowing of its existence and how to raise your vibration so that it works to bring you what you want!
